Some mid-term pregnant women believe that after early pregnancy, the fetus has stabilized and their lifestyle habits can be relaxed. In fact, if pregnant women in the middle of pregnancy do not pay attention, it is easy to cause uterine contractions, and even abnormal fetal development can lead to the opening of the cervix, resulting in the miscarriage of a life that has been painstakingly nurtured for more than three months. So how to prevent the cervix from opening during mid pregnancy?
1. Reasonable diet. In mid pregnancy, there is a significant increase in appetite, so it is advisable to eat small and frequent meals until comfortable, and avoid overeating. Prohibit eating hot pot, barbecue, or spicy food. Eat more fiber based foods to prevent constipation and hemorrhoids.
2. Avoid overexertion and staying up late. Physically, doing some gentle exercise is beneficial for fetal development, but intense exercise should not be done; Psychologically, it is important to maintain good psychological resilience. Prevent excessive stress from affecting fetal development.
3. Sexual activity is not recommended. Although mid-term pregnant women are able to engage in sexual activity, some mid-term pregnant women with low placental position or overly aggressive male movements may lead to miscarriage. Moreover, prostaglandins in male semen have the ability to trigger uterine contractions.
4. Regularly go to the hospital for prenatal check ups, especially paying attention to the cervix, because if it is cervical dysfunction, the cervix is also prone to opening during mid pregnancy. In addition, if there are any physical problems, one should consult a professional doctor in a timely manner.
