What actions are not suitable for pregnancy? These six actions will make the fetus very uncomfortable!

Pregnant women have many taboos during pregnancy, whether it is diet or daily habits. So today we will learn about which actions are not suitable for pregnant women and which actions are suitable. These six actions will make the fetus very uncomfortable!

These six actions will make the fetus very uncomfortable

1. Frequently bend 90 degrees to pick up things

Many expectant mothers think that bending down to pick up something is a very simple action and there is no need to make a fuss about it.

In fact, when the fetus is 5 months old, the weight of the baby will increase the pressure on the expectant mother's spine. If you are not careful when bending over, it is easy to pull the back muscles and cause lumbar injury.

At the same time, frequently bending over 90 degrees to pick up things will compress the abdomen and affect the development of the fetus.

Of course, if the expectant mother must pick up something, she can first bend her knees and distribute the weight of her body on her knees, and then squat down to pick up the item. This can greatly relieve the support force on the expectant mother's waist.

2. Squatting on the ground for a long time to do housework

After pregnancy, expectant mothers will help with housework to a certain extent. Appropriate housework can promote metabolism and benefit blood circulation.

However, if you squat for a long time to mop the floor, pick vegetables or wash clothes during pregnancy, it will not only put excessive pressure on the abdomen and cause pelvic congestion, but in severe cases it may also lead to fetal miscarriage.

In addition, for expectant mothers with anemia, standing up after squatting for a long time is likely to cause dizziness and black eyes, and it is easy to fall down if you are not careful, thus injuring the fetus. Therefore, squatting for a long time is extremely undesirable, and expectant mothers must remember this.

3. Stand on tiptoe to get high objects

When you can't reach something high up, most people habitually stand on tiptoe to get it. But for expectant mothers, standing on tiptoe is a very dangerous action.

Because the abdomen of the expectant mother is in a forward-leaning state after pregnancy, standing on tiptoe will make the body lose balance, which may cause instability and the risk of falling. Secondly, when taking objects from high places, the objects may fall and hit you if you are not careful.

Therefore, expectant mothers can ask family members to help pick it up, or put frequently used items in a low place to avoid standing on tiptoe.

4. Climb to a high place to clean

Some expectant mothers can't stay idle at home, so they like to do some housework to kill time. But it should be noted that expectant mothers can't demand themselves by the standards before pregnancy. For example, climbing up to a high place to clean windows or range hoods.

Because the mother-to-be's body coordination ability is poor at this time, it is easy to miss or make a mistake. If she falls from a high place, it will not only harm the mother-to-be's health, but also the fetus.

Therefore, you may want to let your family members do the housework, or hire a professional housekeeper to do the cleaning. If you feel bored during pregnancy, you can listen to music, read some prenatal education books, and do your homework for the birth of your baby!

5. Get up directly from a supine position

Many expectant mothers ask their husbands to help push or pull them from behind when they get up. In fact, both of these practices are wrong!

Because getting up directly from a supine position will not only affect the waist muscles, but also cause discomfort to the fetus.

Generally speaking, it is better for expectant mothers to sleep on their left side. In addition, when getting up, expectant mothers need to move slowly to avoid tension in the waist muscles.

6. Expectant mothers driving in the late pregnancy

Some expectant mothers drive out in the third trimester, which is actually very dangerous. Because the belly of expectant mothers in the third trimester is bulging, the steering wheel in the car is very easy to press against the belly, and it is also inconvenient to get in and out of the car. If an accident happens, the belly may be scratched slightly, and the placenta may be detached early and cause miscarriage.

Therefore, in the third trimester of pregnancy, expectant mothers who need to go out can ask their family members to take them out. After all, safety comes first.

Well~ After reading the above 6 actions, I believe everyone has memorized them. Then, in the following pregnancy period, expectant mothers should never do them!

What actions are not suitable during pregnancy

Be careful during the first three months of pregnancy. It is best not to do strenuous exercise during this period. During the period from the third month to the 28th week of pregnancy, pregnant women can exercise appropriately. In the late pregnancy, that is, after the 28th week, pregnant women are not suitable for exercise, because the fetus has grown very large at this time, and exercise may cause allergic uterine contractions, leading to premature birth and other problems.

For pregnant women, when choosing exercise during the 3rd month to 28th week of pregnancy, you should also pay attention to the type of exercise. It is best to do moderate exercise, such as swimming, Tai Chi, walking, and yoga for pregnant women. Be sure to avoid strong abdominal exercises and avoid doing exercises that involve physical contact with others. Do not do jumping or sprinting exercises, and avoid doing fast bursts of exercise, such as badminton and tennis. Horse riding or diving are also not suitable for pregnant women; diving can easily cause pregnant women to be in a state of hypoxia, leading to fetal malformations.

Pregnant women can do more breathing exercises, which can help them relax and keep quiet, and also help with contractions during delivery, so it is best for pregnant women to do this exercise frequently. Shallow breathing: It is best for pregnant women to sit on the floor, cross their legs in front of their bodies, straighten their backs, and breathe in and out through their mouths. Deep breathing: Cross your legs in front of your body, sit on the floor in a comfortable position, straighten your back, take a deep breath through your nostrils, exhale slowly, and repeat the exercise.

In addition, pregnant women can also do some muscle exercises, including pelvic floor muscle exercises: the pelvic floor muscles of pregnant women are likely to be weakened during pregnancy, so strengthening these muscles is important for pregnant women and childbirth. It is best to practice 300 to 350 times a day. Pregnant women should tighten their muscles as hard as if they were holding their urine, hold it for as long as possible, then relax, and repeat 30 times. You can take a break when you feel tired. Thigh muscle exercise: Sit on the floor in a frog position, with your back straight, and the soles of your feet facing each other; hold your ankles with both hands, try to bring your feet closer to your body, and press your thighs down with your elbows. Keep this position for 10 counts, and then repeat 15 times.

What exercises are suitable for pregnant women?

The following exercises are generally safe for expectant mothers, but some exercises may not be suitable for pregnant women in the last few months of pregnancy. Please consult your doctor before starting any exercise.

Walking: Walking is the best cardiovascular exercise for expectant mothers. Walking can keep you healthy and prevent you from spraining your knees and ankles. You can walk almost anywhere, you don't need any equipment except a pair of shoes that fit, and walking is safe throughout pregnancy.

Swimming: Health care professionals and fitness experts agree that swimming is the best and safest form of exercise during pregnancy. Swimming exercises large muscle groups (arm and leg muscles), has cardiovascular benefits, and allows expectant mothers with growing bodies to feel less bulky in the water.

Low-impact aerobics: One benefit of taking aerobics classes is that you can exercise regularly at a fixed time. If you take a class specifically for expectant mothers, you can also fully enjoy the good time of emotional communication with other expectant mothers, and you can rest assured that every move taught here is safe for you and your baby.

Dancing: Dancing improves blood circulation in the body. You can dance to your favorite music in the comfort of your own living room or join a dance class, but avoid strenuous movements such as jumping or spinning.

Yoga: Yoga keeps your muscles tight and flexible, and it puts less stress on your joints, but you may want to add a few walks or swims a week to your yoga routine for a stronger cardio workout.

Stretching exercises: Stretching exercises can keep your body flexible and relaxed, and prevent muscle strain. You can combine stretching exercises with cardiovascular exercises to give your body a comprehensive workout.

Weight training: If weight training is part of your regular exercise, there is no need to stop after pregnancy, but most pregnant women should reduce the weight of the training (you can ensure adequate exercise by increasing the number of repetitions). As long as the necessary protective measures and reasonable techniques (slow, controlled movements) are taken, weight training is a good way to strengthen and exercise muscles. However, this training method is best approved by your health care doctor and carried out under the guidance of a professional coach.
