Prenatal care
Pregnancy is a critical period for the health of pregnant women and fetuses, and pregnant women need additional nutrition and health care measures to support the growth and development of fetuses. The following are some important steps in pregnancy care:
1. Healthy eating
Pregnant women should maintain a balanced diet and take in enough protein, vitamins, minerals and fiber. They should avoid raw food, sashimi and other foods that may cause food poisoning. Pregnant women should also avoid excessive intake of caffeine and alcohol.
Folic acid supplementation
Folic acid is an important nutrient to prevent fetal neural tube defects. Pregnant women should start to supplement folic acid before pregnancy and continue to supplement it during pregnancy. Folic acid can be ingested through food or supplements.
3. Regular physical examination
Pregnant women should have regular prenatal check-ups to ensure the health of the fetus. Prenatal examination can help doctors find and deal with any potential health problems in time.
Infant health care
Infants and young children are the fastest growing stage of babies, and their bodies and immune systems are relatively fragile, so they are easily influenced by the external environment. The following are some important steps in infant health care:
1. breastfeeding
Breast milk is the best food for infants. It is rich in nutrients and antibodies, which can help babies build up their immune system. Babies should start breastfeeding within the first hour after birth and continue breastfeeding.
Vaccinate regularly
Infants and young children should be vaccinated according to the national immunization plan to prevent common infectious diseases. Vaccination can help infants build immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
3. Regular physical examination
Infants should have regular physical examinations to ensure normal growth and development. Physical examination can help doctors find and deal with any potential health problems in time.
