How to prepare for pregnancy scientifically

As we all konw, childrens are like angels, they brought happiness and happiness to a family once they were born. But if you want your child to be very healthy from birth, it is very import make scientific preparation before pregnancy. Many people are willing to be parents and they love children, however, some people don’t konw that the physical condition of parents can directly determine their children’s physical condition. The assessment of parents is all prerequisite. Many people don’t know what to do to avoid minefields, and finally give birth to a child with poor quality, which will affect their whole life.

The key factors include the following:

First, we should make evaluation of mother’s age, elderly women, women over 35 years old, that is, women over 34 years old at the time of conception. Pregnant women themselves are prone to pregnancy hypertension, pre-eclampsia, anemia, uterine weakness leading to dystocia, and post-natal infection. In addition to the maternal itself, it is also easy to harm the fetus, such as growth retardation, premature delivery, fetal respiratory distress syndrome, hypoxia, irreversible brain injury The incidence of complications during pregnancy and delivery in elderly women is relatively high. Standardized pregnancy health care can effectively reduce the incidence of complications in pregnant women and newborns, ensure safe maternal and infant delivery outcomes, and facilitate maternal and infant prognosis. So try to get pregnant before the age of 32. If you are an elderly woman, you should maintain good communication and contact with the doctor.

Physical examination includes comprehensive physical examination, including heart and lung auscultation; Measure blood pressure, body mass and calculate body mass index (BMI); Routine gynecological examination.

General examination, including the following items: blood routine; Urine routine; Blood type: Check whether you have a special blood type such as panda blood, in case of major bleeding (ABO and Rh blood types); Liver function; Renal function; The fasting blood glucose level depends on whether there are basic diseases such as diabetes. The physiological state of pregnant women with basic diseases is different from that of normal pregnant women, and the monitoring and nursing of the fetus are also different. I found an expert consensus to help you understand the knowledge of diabetes mothers. I wanted to upload a file, but it seems not to be possible. You can download it yourself ;

Genetic disease screening. Avoid marriage between close relatives. At ordinary times, many people ask whether heart disease can be inherited when consulting heart disease. Here is a unified answer. Generally, congenital heart disease cannot be inherited. Common hereditary diseases that may be related to heart include hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, Marfan syndrome, hypertension, etc. For example, cancer is the result of a combination of multiple factors. Carcinogenic genes only say that such people are prone to cancer, not necessarily cancer. For example, if both grandma and mother have breast cancer, the daughter may also have breast cancer genes, but she may not have breast cancer. We don’t need to panic about genetic diseases, such as heart disease. We can consult the doctor about the causes and consequences before making decisions. Some genetic diseases are regional, such as thalassemia.

Diseases of pregnant women themselves. For example, chronic diseases, congenital heart disease, infectious diseases, etc. Although these diseases will not be inherited, some will infect children, and some will cause burden damage to the mother, thus affecting the pregnancy and delivery process. Therefore, HBsAg screening should be performed before delivery; Syphilis serum antibody screening; HIV screening. So if you have a medical history, you should tell the doctor in detail, let the doctor evaluate the risk for you and escort you.

Nutrition. In the recommendations of the World Health Organization on the nutritional status of normal pregnant women before pregnancy and before delivery, unless it is really lack of nutrition, it is not recommended to supplement too much nutrition. It is recommended to maintain a certain amount of exercise. In particular, the intake of sugar and salt should be controlled. Do not take too much sugar and salt while supplementing nutrition. Some people suggest taking folic acid and iron supplements, because the demand of pregnant women for folic acid is four times higher than that of normal people. The lack of folic acid can lead to fetal malformation, such as neural tube malformation with an incidence of about 3.8‰ in some country, including anencephalus, spina bifida, etc. But our fresh vegetables and fruits contain folic acid.

Other supplements. In addition to the above factors, we should also maintain good living habits. Avoid smoking and alcohol. Pay attention to rest and maintain a full mental state. If you are too worried and impatient, the endocrine system in the body will automatically regulate the secretion of hormones, which will have a certain impact on the fetus. What kind of domestic violence and excessive physical labor should be avoided. And if you want to take medicine, regardless of the reason, you should ask the doctor whether it will affect the baby. Generally speaking, the X-ray form will be clearly written, and no child can be born within six months after the examination. Especially for CT, the dose is tens or hundreds of times that of X-ray exposure. Compared with our mobile phones, computers and electromagnetic waves in life, there is little impact. The father should also prepare for many of the precautions mentioned above. For example, screening of genetic diseases and family history. Avoid smoking and alcohol. Good living habits. Don’t be angry yourself, let alone your wife. When she is angry, you can’t say sorry directly. Hold on and coax her. Some research shows that the relationship between husband and wife and the feelings of pregnant women can affect the development of infants and the appearance of future children, think about your wife’s difficulties and pain, so be patient to your wife and love her.

Be patient make the above preparations and wait for the arrival of the child, hope you can have a healthy and happy family.
