After pregnancy, with the endocrine changes, metabolism is enhanced, sweat glands and sebaceous glands are secreted more vigorously, so it is more necessary than ordinary people to take a bath to keep the skin clean and prevent skin infections and urinary tract infections. But if you don't pay attention to the method when taking a bath, it may affect your health and your baby's health.
Pregnant women should pay attention to the water temperature when taking a bath, and it should not be too high, because modern medical research has found that too high temperature will cause certain damage to the central nervous system of the fetus. According to the measurement, when the pregnant woman's body temperature is 65438 0.5 degrees higher than normal, the fetal brain cells may stop developing; If it rises by 3 degrees, it may kill brain cells, and most of the brain cell damage caused by it is irreversible and permanent, resulting in mental retardation of the fetus.
Bathing time during pregnancy should not be too long. For example, if you take a bath in the bathhouse, there is not enough oxygen in it. If the bath time is too long, pregnant women can't breathe fresh air in time, and dizziness will occur. Of course, if the bath time is too long, it is not good for the fetus in the stomach, which will affect the oxygen supply of the fetus. It has a great influence on the development of the fetus. Mothers can control the bath time at 15 minutes, not too long, and pay attention to the water temperature in the bath, otherwise it will affect the fetus.
The best way to take a bath is to take a shower. After pregnancy, because of the change of hormone level, women's vaginal resistance becomes lower, and they are more prone to various diseases, especially to protect themselves from various diseases. Therefore, pregnant mothers should choose a shower instead of a sitz bath when taking a bath, so as to avoid unclean bath water invading the body and causing various inflammations. If you have physical problems, you need to take medicine, which is also a test for the fetus.
Take all kinds of safety measures when taking a bath. After pregnancy, pregnant mothers are not more convenient than ordinary people, so every time you take a shower, you should take various safety measures. For example, when taking a bath, you can lay a non-slip mat in the bathroom. If the body is inconvenient, you can put a stool in the bathroom (or buy a stool for bathing, which is usually available in medical equipment stores). In short, you can ask dad for help.
