These precautions should be kept in mind during late pregnancy!

Late pregnancy precautions include maternal sleeping positions, diet, prenatal checkups and more. The mother-to-be needs to master her own self health care and precautions during pregnancy. 1, late pregnancy sleeping posture late pregnancy is best to choose to sleep lying on the left side, the leg against the bed side to keep bent. The side of the abdomen against the bed, more secure. Legs often swollen mother-to-be, lying on the side, you can put a pillow or pillow under the legs, the legs will be padded. This way the blood circulation in the legs becomes better and reduces the feeling of fatigue. Avoid sleeping on your stomach or lying flat during pregnancy. If you sleep on your stomach, your abdomen will be pressed against the fetus and the pregnant woman; if you sleep flat on your back in late pregnancy, the enlarged uterus will press against your spine and hinder blood circulation. 2, stomach pain In the late pregnancy, the mother-to-be rest at night, sometimes due to false contractions and lower abdominal pain, usually lasting only a few seconds, intermittent time up to several hours, not accompanied by a feeling of falling, the symptoms can be relieved during the day. If a mother-to-be suddenly feels severe and persistent pain in the lower abdomen, there is a possibility of preterm labor or rupture of the uterus. You should go to the hospital in time and do not delay. 3, diarrhea Once the mother-to-be has diarrhea, the main treatment is to rehydrate appropriately, replenish the water and electrolytes lost due to diarrhea, especially potassium ions, replenish the heat lost due to diarrhea, and at the same time, closely observe whether the fetus is in good condition and whether there are signs of preterm delivery. 4, late pregnancy diet Towards the end of pregnancy, the fetus will go down to the pelvic cavity, so the pressure on the stomach and intestines will feel less, and the appetite will be strong again. The mother should increase the intake of protein in the late pregnancy, try to eat more animal protein and soy foods. You should also take in the right amount of essential fatty acids and eat the right amount of animal liver to replenish iron. 5, fetal toxicity Chinese medicine believes that fetal toxicity is mainly dampness and heat toxicity, which is accumulated during the mother’s pregnancy and may lead to eczema in the baby after birth. The mother-to-be should eat a reasonable diet throughout pregnancy, not only to eat some complementary food to ensure nutritional intake, but also to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits of all kinds to ensure the intake of various nutrients and keep the bowels open. Pregnant women are not recommended to eat food containing drugs or herbs. 6, fetal movement If the fetal movement is frequent in late pregnancy (fetal movement greater than or equal to 30 times / 12 hours or greater than or equal to 4 times / hour) is also normal, so the mother-to-be need not worry too much. Depending on the time, the number of fetal movements will also change. Generally speaking, the number of fetal movements is more in the evening and less in the morning. 7, edema Mothers-to-be with edema in late pregnancy should pay attention to their diet, eat more fruits and vegetables, and eat less food with high salt content to help reduce the swelling. Whatever the cause of pregnancy edema, medication cannot completely solve the problem. It is necessary to improve nutrition and increase the intake of protein in the diet to increase the albumin content in the plasma and change the colloid osmotic pressure in order to bring the water in the tissues back to the blood. 8. pubic bone pain Near the moment of delivery, the mother-to-be’s body secretes a hormone called thyroxine, which makes it easier for the fetus to pass through the birth canal and the pubic bone union to be more relaxed. The head of the fetus is pressed against the pubic bone and the pelvis seems to fall down, which can be very painful. The pain starts in the second half of pregnancy and gradually increases until delivery. The pain will disappear with the birth of the baby. When the pain is very severe, lie down, try not to be pressed by the pubic bone, and take a good rest. 9, constipation Constipation is a normal phenomenon in late pregnancy, the mother-to-be should walk around more, move the body, drink more water, do not eat greasy food. You can do more anal lifting movements every day, which helps exercise muscle groups, assist intestinal movements and relieve constipation. 10, shortness of breath during pregnancy In the second trimester, due to the pressure of the enlarged uterus on the diaphragm, you will feel more labored to breathe and the shortness of breath will be more obvious, especially if the fetal position is higher or you are carrying multiples. Shortness of breath during pregnancy is usually not a big deal and is quite normal. In your daily life, you can slow down your pace and don’t push yourself too much when you move or exercise. Keep your upper body straight and spread your shoulders back to allow your lungs to expand as wide as possible, especially when you are sitting. Sleeping with a few extra pillows at night may make you feel better. This is because the body will secrete a lot of relaxing hormones to increase the flexibility of the body in order to adapt to the needs of childbirth, which leads to the edema tendons of the joints also become fragile and painful, so it is recommended that you rest more and try to reduce the stimulation of the knuckles. 12, frequent contractions If the mother-to-be stands or sits in the same position for a long time, she will feel a burst of hardening of the abdomen, which is a “pseudo-contraction”. It is one of the signs of approaching labor, but unlike the real prenatal regular contractions, it will appear from time to time in the 2-3 weeks before delivery. Pseudo contractions are frequent and mothers should not take medication on their own, and they are not usually relieved by medication, so mothers should take care to rest, especially not to stimulate the abdomen. If the contractions are accompanied by strong abdominal pain, such as pain to the point of fidgeting, work and life are affected, it is necessary to go to the hospital for consultation. 13.Pelvic inception After the fetus is in the pelvis, you will have more obvious contractions, and some people may feel frequent urination. The time of pelvic inception is usually between 36 weeks of pregnancy and before the arrival of labor pains, most first-time mothers are in pelvic in the first two weeks of the expected date of delivery, while most menstruating mothers are in pelvic before the start of labor pains, but there are some women who complete the whole process of pelvic in a few days. 14, labor and delivery After entering the late pregnancy, you have to go to the hospital more often to do labor and delivery Oh, after 28 weeks of labor and delivery, will be changed from a monthly labor and delivery to every two weeks, after 36 weeks is to go every week to do labor and delivery, until the baby is born.
