How do pregnant women keep healthy?

Pregnant women need to pay special attention to their health during pregnancy. Here are some tips to protect the health of pregnant women.

Sleeping position

In the first three months of pregnancy, pregnant women can sleep at will, and in the middle and late pregnancy, the left lateral position is the most suitable. This posture can correct and increase the right rotation of the uterus, reduce the oppression of the uterus on the abdominal aorta and iliac artery, increase the blood supply of the fetus, and be beneficial to the growth and development of the fetus.

Avoid toxic substances

Pregnant women should avoid contact with toxic substances, such as lead, mercury, manganese, benzene, gasoline, pesticides, decoration materials, etc. Frequent contact can lead to fetal abortion, stillbirth or mental retardation. Pregnant women should also avoid exposure to radiation, such as X-rays, so as not to cause fetal malformation.

Avoid harsh working environment.

Pregnant women should avoid working in high temperature, excessive humidity and strong noise environment. Don't engage in heavy physical labor such as carrying water and heavy objects. Avoid assembly line work, climbing work, or work that requires frequent bending and squatting, and it is not suitable for standing for a long time, such as salespeople and waiters; These jobs are not conducive to the growth and development of the fetus, and even easy to cause abortion.
