Pregnancy is a happy thing for most people, but it is also a troublesome thing. Because after pregnancy, in order to ensure the health of oneself and the baby, and to enable the baby to grow and develop better, regular prenatal check ups are necessary to detect problems in a timely manner. If the baby has problems, they can be dealt with in a timely manner. So, do pregnant women need prenatal check ups every month?
Pregnant women who want to know about their baby's development during pregnancy cannot rely solely on their own feelings, so there will be prenatal check ups almost every month, and some prenatal check ups are necessary. For example, the first B-ultrasound during pregnancy should be completed in the early stages of pregnancy, that is, within three months of pregnancy, mainly to determine whether it is an intrauterine pregnancy. It can also check the thickness of the tumor, and in addition, the Down syndrome screening can detect whether there is congenital idiocy.
At 20-26 weeks of pregnancy, it is crucial to have a major anomaly, and common clinical abnormalities can be detected through a major anomaly examination. In late pregnancy, in addition to screening for abnormalities, it is also necessary to check whether the fetus has intrauterine distress, amniotic fluid and umbilical cord entanglement around the neck, and so on. Generally, there will be more examinations during the mid to late stages of pregnancy, depending on the level of fetal development. If there are any abnormal conditions, the frequency of examinations needs to be increased.
If the pregnant woman's condition is better, the number of examinations will be reduced, but some examinations are necessary. It is recommended to listen to the doctor's advice and actively undergo examinations. Pregnant women should also observe their physical performance and immediately go to the hospital to investigate the cause when they feel uncomfortable, in order to avoid the risk of the fetus not being treated in a timely manner.
