Correct misconceptions when pregnant

Prepare to be a mother, no pregnant woman does not worry about her health and the fetus. There are things that most pregnant women believe in, but they are not. Here are some concepts that pregnant women often transmit each other.

1. The belly is big, the fetus is big

Not entirely so! If you are tall, your abdominal ligament is good, your belly may look smaller than others, but your baby is not small at all.

2. How does the mother gain weight, the fetus also gains weight like that

It is necessary for a mother to gain weight during pregnancy. This shows a good diet for both mother and fetus. But a lot of weight gain is not always synonymous with a large fetus. Because, most of the weight will be amniotic fluid and accumulated fat.

3. In the second trimester of pregnancy, the mother looks most radiant

This does not happen in every pregnant woman. Because, each person has the health and expression characteristics of different skin. A few have a feeling of fatigue during pregnancy.

4. If the mother's abdomen is covered with a coat, it means giving birth to a boy

No scientific research has confirmed that yet. Many women have fur in their abdomen but still give birth to girls.

5. If the abdomen is round and tall, give birth to a girl

It's wrong if you believe in this sign absolutely! If you give birth for the first time, your abdominal muscles are strong, able to keep your baby high. This will be difficult to obtain in subsequent pregnancies.

The pointed abdomen, protruding in the front only proves that the abdominal cavity is not too large to hold the fetus, so your baby has to protrude forward. Big, round belly indicates a fetus lying on its side.

6. The fetal heart beating fast is a girl, slow beating is a boy

According to research by American scientists, newborn girls have heartbeats beating faster than the heart rate of newborn boys. During pregnancy, heart rate does not distinguish by sex.

7. The following births will be easier to labor and easier than the previous birth

If you have to use medicine to stimulate labor for the first time, the following births will not be easier than the previous birth, it may even be more difficult.

8. If the baby is born at night, he will wake up often at night

There is no scientific basis for this prediction. Believe that, the baby's birth at any time has no relation to its waking and sleeping. Good sleep depends only on the physiological characteristics of the child.
