After entering the second trimester of pregnancy, because pregnant women have formed a new balance to adapt to fetal growth, discomfort such as morning sickness disappears, and pregnant women's emotions become relatively stable. Therefore, the focus of mental stability in the second trimester should be to maintain a good state of the body and ensure a good mental state through an appropriate combination of life and rest.
1, psychological problems of attention in the second trimester
1, afraid of delivery: Although there is still a long way to go before the delivery time in the second trimester, pregnant women still feel great pressure. Some pregnant women began to feel uneasy because she listened to the rumors about how painful childbirth was, or because the film and television works exaggerated the scene of childbirth. In fact, it is impossible to have a baby without pain, but excessive fear is not a good idea. Pregnant women should learn some knowledge about childbirth and understand that childbirth is the inevitable result of pregnancy. In addition, it may make pregnant women feel better if they prepare some necessities for their unborn babies with their families. Doing so can often make pregnant women change from fear of childbirth to eager expectation.
2, psychologically too relaxed: the stability of physical condition may lead to psychological relaxation, and pregnant women will breathe a sigh of relief. However, the second trimester is not necessarily safe. If the burden of each system is caused by pregnancy, it may aggravate the original heart, kidney and liver conditions; There may also be various pathological conditions in the second trimester, such as pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome and anemia. Relaxing attention to physical condition is likely to lead to bad consequences. Therefore, it is inappropriate for some pregnant women not to go to the hospital for examination on time.
3. Over-dependence: For women in the second trimester, it is undoubtedly harmless to do some work properly and take part in some moderate exercise. But some pregnant women are unwilling to move because of their exposed bodies. They do nothing every day, but their husbands do everything, thinking that this will be beneficial to the fetus. But it is easy to cause psychological depression, depression and loneliness, which is not good for the fetus. The medical community believes that proper delivery during pregnancy can enhance the muscle strength of pregnant women and contribute to delivery. Therefore, pregnant women can do housework. If there is no abnormality, they can still go to work normally in the second trimester, which is also of great benefit to improving their mental state.
2. The importance of mental health during pregnancy.
During the period from the confirmation of pregnancy to June 5438+00, many expectant mothers will experience different degrees of mood swings, sometimes happy and excited, sometimes fidgety, nervous and anxious, and even afraid.
Long-term and certain degree of bad mood will affect the development of fetal body and brain nervous system, which is related to the occurrence of complications such as fetal growth retardation, malformation, premature delivery, abortion and low weight. If the expectant mother is often angry, afraid and anxious, your baby will have emotional disorders and even feel rejected. Therefore, the mental health during pregnancy and childbirth can not be ignored.
3. Exercise suitable for pregnancy
First, you can do aerobic exercise in the first trimester.
65438+ 0-3 months of pregnancy means that the placenta is still unstable, which belongs to the first trimester and is also a dangerous period. Pregnant women often have physiological symptoms such as listlessness, lethargy and morning sickness. The metabolism of expectant mothers also increases in the first trimester, and the calorie consumption is very fast. Insufficient blood sugar supply can lead to drowsiness. At this stage, pregnant mothers should not only ensure adequate rest, but also do some aerobic exercise, such as jogging, brisk walking, swimming, simple rhythmic exercise and climbing stairs. You don't have to do everything. Expectant mothers can choose one or two sports that they like or are convenient for. This is conducive to their own adaptation to the physiological changes of pregnancy and fetal development.
Second, the most needed exercise in the second trimester
When the fetus reaches 4-7 months, that is, the second trimester, the physiological situation is relatively stable, pregnant women have also passed the dangerous period of miscarriage in the first trimester, and the uncomfortable physiological symptoms of pregnancy have also been alleviated, so they don't have to tiptoe around like in the first trimester, fearing danger. Therefore, in the second trimester, you can appropriately increase the amount of exercise and enhance the circulatory vitality of the body. At this stage, the pregnant mother's own physique and habits can be used for dancing, jogging, swimming and other activities and sports, which are all good exercise methods.
Third, exercise should be done in the third trimester to prepare for natural delivery.
After 7 months of pregnancy, the expectant mother's physical burden is getting heavier and heavier, the uterus is over-expanded, and the intrauterine pressure is also high. At this time, the uterine orifice is gradually shortened, and most pregnant women will feel chest tightness, palpitation, back, legs and buttocks. Pain and spasm. This period is also a critical stage for pregnant women to store their physical strength and give birth naturally. The premise is to reduce the amount of exercise that suits your physical condition, not to exercise too often, and to avoid premature birth caused by improper activities. Therefore, the activities in the third trimester are mainly moderate exercise or stretching exercise, as long as it can relieve backache, enhance muscle tension, stretch hips and legs, and prepare for natural delivery.
In addition, in the third trimester of pregnancy, especially near the expected date of delivery, the expectant mother's body center of gravity shifts, making it more and more inconvenient to move. The waist muscles and back muscles are often in a state of tension, and the enlarged uterus also exerts greater pressure on the back. During this period, the range of exercise should not be too large, and some stretching exercises are very suitable. Combined with contact breathing, it can effectively help delivery.
Some expectant mothers may like to drink sports drinks or coke during pregnancy, which is not desirable. First of all, exercise during pregnancy will not be too tiring, and you don't have to exercise until your body is overheated and sweaty. Expectant mothers only need to do some gentle and comfortable exercise, and then drink more water and juice during the exercise.
Many pregnant mothers are worried that doing exercise during pregnancy will lead to premature delivery, but there is no need to worry. Because some data studies have pointed out that although the heartbeat of pregnant women is accelerated during exercise, the heart rate of the fetus does not increase with it, which shows that proper exercise during pregnancy will not pose a threat to the safety of the fetus. In addition, don't stick to the form of exercise during pregnancy, choose some good exercise methods to achieve the best results, such as walking, yoga, aerobics and so on.
