A very special, magical state of a woman's body - pregnancy - involves observing the important rules of daily life. Now many things are banned, because if you could, for example, smoke a cigarette, you were well aware that you were only harming your own body, but you consciously made a choice. And now a small fragile life inside makes you think hard every step, do any little thing with an eye on the future baby. It is imperative to prioritize correctly, and the future kid should undoubtedly be the main one. It turns out that there are many contraindications during pregnancy, and there is no getting around - you have to observe them. Some expectant mothers sometimes ignore them, considering them frivolous remnants of the past. Meanwhile, even if immediately after birth some taboos violated by the woman in the situation will not affect the baby in any way, the problems may come later, and then the woman will realize her mistakes, but it will be difficult to correct them.
We bring to your attention the generally accepted contraindications for pregnant women.
Alcohol is the main thing that a strict ban on a pregnant woman should be imposed. Do not listen to the entreaties of uninformed friends or acquaintances. Even a small glass of beer or wine can cause pathology - fetal alcohol syndrome. Moreover, the dose leading to this, scientists have not yet been determined. Do not risk the health of the unborn child.
Needless to say, any narcotic drugs and substances are also prohibited. This also applies to the lightest ones, such as, for example, hemp. Even if a woman, being in a position, “only once” uses a drug, this can cause the development of various defects in a newborn baby. Strong drugs cause a miscarriage or cause neurological abnormalities in the child.
Persistent contraindications during pregnancy is tobacco smoking. It causes a sharp narrowing of blood vessels. From this, the future mother rises blood pressure, and the child does not have enough oxygen.
Sports, especially in the first trimester, are permissible if they are not forbidden by a doctor. Further loads should be limited. Due to the hormones produced during pregnancy, the muscles become sluggish and brittle, so there is now a much greater chance of falling and breaking an arm or leg. Diving, diving, swimming underwater is not recommended. However, walking and just swimming will be very useful. Great physical exertion, which was quite possible for you before pregnancy, now sometimes lead to serious problems: bleeding or even miscarriage.
Sunbathing also has contraindications during pregnancy. Doctors urgently advise less to be in the sun, to swim in open reservoirs. Temperature differences do not bode well for a pregnant woman.
Try to eat less salty foods, let your food be better slightly salted. Salt promotes fluid retention in the body, which can cause edema, while pregnant women are prone to it.
There are contraindications during pregnancy for everything that can cause even a mild illness. This is too cold a drink, a draft, unwashed vegetables and fruits. Medications often negatively affect the development of the fetus.
Sexual relationships should be more careful, at least during the first three months. At this time, the fetus still does not hold fast enough to the walls of the uterus, and there is no need to disturb it once again - the doctor may even recommend abstinence for several weeks. Further, if the doctor has not forbidden, you can resume sex life.
Certain types of massage, cold showers, electrophoresis, baths or saunas are not recommended.
All of these contraindications during pregnancy are general, and talk about your individual limitations with your gynecologist after testing. Remember that by denying yourself something, you show love and care for the future baby.
If much of the above is a part of your life, without which you cannot imagine yourself, then remember: these are contraindications for pregnancy, and deciding to become a mother, you must thoroughly prepare and change a lot in your life.
