What should elderly pregnant women pay attention to when giving birth to their babies?

First of all, we need to know at what age pregnancy can be counted as an elderly woman.

From a medical point of view, pregnant women over the age of 35 are elderly women. At this time, pregnancy and childbirth are very harmful to women and may even threaten their lives. Of course, with the development of science and technology and the improvement of medical level, people's economic and living standards have also improved, and they have paid more attention to medical care. Most people have good physical function in middle age, and the harm of older women is not so great, but we still can't take it lightly.

Second, we need to know what harm elderly women have.

1, harm to mother:

When people reach middle age, the skeleton of the body is stereotyped and the pubic bone of women is ossified, which easily leads to prolonged labor or dystocia, accompanied by various complications such as increased prevalence of pregnancy-induced hypertension. In addition, due to the reduced elasticity of ligament tissue, dystocia, postpartum infection and postpartum anemia are prone to occur during production. Therefore, most elderly women will choose caesarean section.

2. Harm to children:

Generally speaking, the fetus of elderly women is more likely to be premature, and the rate of deformed or stillborn fetus is higher. The specific reason is that the dystocia of pregnant women makes the baby stay in the uterus for too long, which is easy to cause fetal distress. A disease is extremely harmful to children's brains, and it can be fatal in severe cases.

Third, what are the precautions for elderly women?

Pay attention to diet and balance nutrition. Whether you are an elderly woman or not, you should pay attention to a healthy diet. Health is the foundation of everything. With a strong body, I believe there will be fewer accidents during childbirth.

Develop good living habits. Good living habits will make you more energetic, especially for older women. Middle-aged people don't have the same physical problems as young people. If you stay up late smoking and drinking, it will accelerate the loss of physical function and make things worse unintentionally.
