Doing simple housework after pregnancy is helpful to the physical and mental health of pregnant women, and mopping the floor will not have much impact on pregnant women. However, every pregnant woman's physical quality is different, so we should also pay attention to the way and quantity when mopping the floor.
Housework such as sweeping the floor, mopping the floor or squatting down to weed are all things that pregnant women need to avoid. Especially after five months of pregnancy, the weight of the fetus will cause great pressure on the mother's spine, causing symptoms such as backache and back pain of pregnant mothers. The pregnant mother's bending over to sweep the floor will not only cause a heavy burden on the spine, but also make the baby in the stomach lack oxygen, which is not conducive to the healthy development of the fetus. And as the expectant mother's stomach gets bigger day by day, her body is not so flexible. No matter what you do, take slow as the principle, and don't oppress your stomach.
Pregnant women are very sensitive to harmful substances such as dust in the air. Sweeping the floor will cause a lot of dust, especially in the hot and humid environment in summer. The fine particles in these dust are very easy to breed bacteria, and the small particle derivatives discharged from them are very easy to be inhaled by pregnant women and cause allergic asthma, which causes the physical discomfort of pregnant mothers and seriously affects the healthy development of the baby in the abdomen. We don't want you to do these things that are not worth the loss.
Precautions for pregnant women mopping the floor:
In the second and third trimester of pregnancy, pregnant women can do some housework properly, but when mopping or sweeping the floor, pregnant women will bend or squat, which will increase intra-abdominal pressure and may affect the fetus.
Generally speaking, pregnant women who have no history of abortion or threatened abortion in the first trimester can do some housework properly, but the time should not be too long and they should not be overworked, otherwise it may cause abortion.
Whether a pregnant woman can mop the floor depends on her own constitution or medical history. If she feels uncomfortable after mopping the floor, I suggest avoiding mopping the floor as much as possible in the future.
Pregnant women should try to avoid mopping the floor, and it is best to choose cleaning tools that do not need to bend over.
