Daily health care for pregnant mothers in the 20th week of pregnancy

Try not to travel far during the second trimester. It is best not to travel far after pregnancy. Because there are many factors that are unfavorable to pregnancy during the journey, such as the bumps of the car and boat, the stress and fatigue during the journey, etc., which are all risk factors for miscarriage and premature birth. Moreover, in case of abnormality, appropriate treatment and care cannot be obtained in time. . If you must go out, you should do so during the 20th to 28th week of pregnancy, which is relatively safe. It is best to check with a doctor or consult a doctor for precautions before departure. Avoid traveling alone and be accompanied by someone. Pay special attention to food hygiene when going out, beware of intestinal infectious diseases, and avoid going to crowded or noisy places. If you feel tired, you should rest in time. If you find abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding, you should tell the accompanying person in time. It is best to go to the hospital for examination to prevent accidents. Pregnant mothers should not go to crowded places. The body resistance of pregnant women is lower than that of non-pregnant women, so they are susceptible to infection by external pathogenic bacteria and cause diseases. Crowded places can easily spread diseases. The density of various pathogenic microorganisms in public places is much higher than in other areas. Especially during periods and areas where infectious diseases are prevalent, pregnant mothers are easily infected with viral and bacterial diseases. These viruses and bacteria may have little impact on normal healthy people, but they are more dangerous to pregnant mothers and fetuses. Pregnant mothers visit these places more frequently, which of course increases the chance of infection. Therefore, in order to avoid being infected with infectious diseases, pregnant mothers should try to avoid going to crowded, mixed and poorly ventilated places, such as stations, shopping malls, supermarkets and theaters. In addition, pregnant mothers may have a miscarriage if they are crowded in crowded places. For example, crowded buses are very dangerous. Accidents are prone to occur in crowded places. For example, watching a program in a square may crowd people. Pregnant mothers are most prone to problems due to physical inconveniences. Moreover, the polluted air in crowded places can cause chest tightness and suffocation in pregnant mothers, and the fetal oxygen supply will also be affected. Body balance is very important in the second trimester. In the second trimester, the abdomen gradually increases and the body\’s center of gravity begins to change. The most important thing during this period is to maintain body balance and prevent local muscle fatigue. For example, when standing to do housework, do not stand with your feet together. It is best to have one foot slightly forward and stagger your feet. When putting things in, bend your waist and knees first, and keep your back as straight as possible. When sitting down, do not move too much. Quickly, first gently sit on the edge of the chair, and then slowly move your body backwards after sitting firmly. In the second half of pregnancy, because the abdomen is too large, it will feel uncomfortable to lie on your back. At this time, you can adopt a side-lying position. When lying on your side, you can put the lower arm behind your body and bend one leg forward. You can also use a quilt or pillow to hold it Pad your legs. In short, you can change positions as long as you feel relaxed and comfortable. During pregnancy, you need to pay attention to avoid stress on the lower abdomen. Stress on the abdomen will compress the uterus and cause miscarriage or premature birth. Therefore, you must avoid heavy physical labor or moving heavy objects. After 16 weeks of pregnancy, the uterus begins to increase rapidly, and it is difficult for the body to maintain balance. When going up stairs or entering and exiting the bath, you should pay attention to preventing slipping under your feet to avoid falling.
