Can I bend over to wash my hair during early pregnancy?

The early pregnancy is the most important period for pregnant women. At this time, the fetus in the belly is not so stable. If you are not careful, miscarriage will occur. Therefore, you should pay more attention to rest. Even when washing your hair, don’t bend over to wash your hair, as this will put pressure on the fetus in your belly. You can lie flat to wash your hair, which will make the effect better.

The most important thing to note in early pregnancy is to supplement folic acid, because expectant mothers' demand for folic acid throughout the pregnancy is 1.5 to 2 times that before pregnancy. Taking 0.4 mg of folic acid per day in early pregnancy can greatly reduce the incidence of fetal neural tube defects and prevent birth defects in newborns.

Severe pregnancy reactions can also affect the appetite of expectant mothers, and nutrition will naturally not keep up. Tangerine peel, which has the effects of promoting qi and strengthening the spleen, warming the stomach and stopping vomiting, and Chinese yam, which can strengthen the spleen and stomach, and replenish qi, can effectively relieve pregnancy reactions.

After pregnancy, women's blood volume increases, which can easily cause physiological anemia, resulting in a decrease in the blood's ability to transport nutrients to the baby, affecting the baby's growth and development. During pregnancy, you can supplement iron appropriately and increase the consumption of honey, jujube, wolfberry, yam, lotus seeds, tangerine peel, enoki mushrooms, etc., especially jujube, which contains ferrous ions. Ferrous ions are mainly used to synthesize red blood cells and maintain the normal concentration of blood. Combining Chinese and Western medicine can comprehensively replenish the blood.

1. Don’t do strenuous exercise.

During pregnancy, pregnant mothers need to maintain proper exercise. However, in the early stages of pregnancy, the development of the fetus is unstable and the mother's physical condition is also unstable. At this time, the mother should not engage in strenuous exercise to avoid miscarriage.

2. Pay attention to personal hygiene.

For women who have just become pregnant, due to changes in their bodies and increased demand for nutrition, their metabolism will be very fast and their vaginal secretions will increase, making them vulnerable to bacterial invasion. Therefore, after entering the pregnancy period, pregnant mothers should pay special attention to their own hygiene, take a bath frequently, and change underwear frequently.

3. Dress appropriately.

In the early stages of pregnancy, pregnant mothers should wear soft and loose clothing, avoid wearing a waist corset, tight pants, or high heels. Otherwise it may easily lead to miscarriage. Moreover, high heels can cause leg fatigue in pregnant mothers, which is not good for their health.

4. Do a good job of inspection.

If bleeding occurs in early pregnancy, it may be due to a variety of reasons such as ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, and fatigue. These are all things that you should not be careless about. You should go to the hospital for a check-up immediately. If a pregnant mother experiences bleeding or other miscarriage symptoms in the early stages of her pregnancy, she should go to the hospital for examination to rule out ectopic pregnancy and then follow the doctor's instructions to take good care of the fetus.

5. Get enough rest.

It is very important for pregnant mothers to rest. They should maintain 8-10 hours of sleep every day and not let themselves be tired. At the same time, pregnant mothers should stay away from radiation and avoid watching TV, playing computer games, or making phone calls for a long time.
