What effect does amniotic fluid have on the fetus? Depends on how much amniotic fluid exceeds the standard. The standard of normal amniotic fluid index is 8- 18CM. If it is more than 24CM, it is best to do further inspection. If there is too much amniotic fluid, some fetuses will have abnormal performance.
During pregnancy, there is too much amniotic fluid, and the fetus is more active in the uterus, which is prone to abnormal fetal position. You can control your water intake.
Amniotic fluid has many possibilities. The most serious consequence is that the baby is deformed, but this probability is very, very low. Most of the babies born to expectant mothers with more amniotic fluid are healthy. Don't have too much psychological burden. I believe the baby will be fine.
Generally speaking, amniotic fluid has the following functions:
1. During pregnancy, amniotic fluid can reduce the external pressure or impact on the abdomen, so that the fetus will not be directly hurt.
2, amniotic fluid can stabilize the temperature in the uterus, so that there will be no drastic changes. In the process of fetal growth and development, the fetus can have a room to move, so that the limb development of the fetus will not form deformity or deformity.
3. Amniotic fluid can alleviate the mother's feeling or discomfort caused by the activity of the fetus in the uterus.
There are some antibacterial substances in amniotic fluid, which have a certain effect on reducing infection.
5, in the process of delivery, amniotic fluid forms a water sac, which can alleviate cervical dilatation.
6. Hip position and foot position can avoid umbilical cord prolapse.
The harm of polyhydramnios is 1, and the influence on the mother: the main effects of polyhydramnios on pregnant women are placental abruption, uterine inertia and postpartum hemorrhage. Acute polyhydramnios can easily cause obvious symptoms of oppression, which leads to an increased risk of hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy. Excessive stretching of uterine muscle fibers can cause uterine inertia, prolonged labor and increased postpartum hemorrhage; If the membrane is suddenly broken, the intrauterine pressure will suddenly decrease, leading to placental abruption and shock. In addition, the possibility of premature rupture of membranes and premature delivery will also increase.
2. Impact on the fetus: Fetal abnormality, umbilical cord prolapse, fetal distress caused by premature delivery, frequent complications of immature newborns and fetal malformation caused by amniotic fluid, so the perinatal mortality rate of patients with polyhydramnios is significantly increased, which is about 7 times that of normal pregnancy. The incidence of premature delivery, umbilical cord prolapse, placental abruption and other complications in patients with polyhydramnios increases, which affects the perinatal prognosis. Pregnancy complicated with diabetes and neonatal polycythemia make the perinatal prognosis poor.
Fetal malformation is the first concern of polyhydramnios, which has a great influence on pregnant women. Therefore, early detection of high amniotic fluid, early detection of whether the fetus is deformed, can be prepared early, I hope everyone is healthy and healthy.
