What should not be done during pregnancy and why not?

Pregnancy is a special condition of a woman. Now she needs to take good care of herself, because the health and well-being of the mother directly affects the full development of the baby. Yes, there are many prohibitions, but all of them are only for the good.

It is probably no secret that alcohol, smoking and, especially, drug use adversely affect the development of the baby. Bad habits affect the development of the brain, the general condition of the child, lead to hypoxia and even too sad consequences. During pregnancy, you can not only abuse it, but even inhale the smoke from cigarettes and a pair of alcohol.

During pregnancy, you should not take too hot a bath. High temperature provokes strong blood circulation and fever. In the early stages, this can lead to miscarriage, in later ones - to the appearance of contractions and premature birth. This includes hiking in the sauna. It is better not to risk the baby and forget about her visit for a while.

Why can not you raise your hands pregnant? In this position, the abdominal muscles become very tense, such tension is comparable to the tone of the uterus, which in turn can provoke a miscarriage. At a later date, when the baby has already turned into head presentation, raising his hands causes constriction, the child begins to move very much and, as a result, the possibility of his moving to the pelvic presentation or wrapping the umbilical cord is not ruled out.

Many mothers are very interested in the issue of hair coloring during pregnancy. As you know, hair dye has a lot of different chemicals, so gynecologists and pediatricians do not recommend this procedure in the first trimester, when the baby's organs are laid and formed. In the following periods, dyeing is not considered harmful, but nevertheless, it is better to use specialized paints for this and report your situation to the hairdresser.

Why shouldn’t mushrooms be pregnant? This product has many disadvantages. Allergenic mushrooms are blown, they are very poorly absorbed by the body. Plus, they are poorly digestible, create a burden on the kidneys, stomach, and during pregnancy, there is a big load on the organs. This is not to say that mushrooms are completely contraindicated, just their use should not be frequent and in moderation.

It is not recommended to wear high-heeled shoes, but it is better to abandon it altogether. Heels give a strong load on the back, causing fatigue and even pain. There is a load on the legs, and this can lead to varicose veins. This is not to say that during pregnancy it is necessary to completely abandon heels, because this is not at all a ten-centimeter hairpin, a small steady heel is possible. But, nevertheless, his absence is more reliable, his mother is more comfortable moving, and the risk of falls is reduced.

If mom is involved in sports, then this is very good for the baby, he receives much more oxygen. Of course, if we are talking about any kind of struggle, equestrian or extreme sports, you should not put yourself in danger during pregnancy, you should stop exercising for the period of bearing the baby. In any case, the decision to continue or stop classes is made by the attending physician, based on the general condition of the mother and baby. Increased stress can cause premature birth.

Some mummies, and daddies too, believe that you should not have sex during pregnancy. This is not entirely true. A total or temporary ban is placed by the attending physician in case of a threat of miscarriage or other indications. In other cases, sex is even useful in physiological and psychological terms, and the baby is reliably protected by the walls of the uterus, the fetal bladder and amniotic fluid. But if having sex causes pain or causes discharge, then you need to refuse it and consult a gynecologist.
