Everyone knows that security checks are very strict when flying, and many women cannot avoid flying during pregnancy. Therefore, they are worried that the security check equipment and the equipment on the plane may have radiation on the fetus, which will affect its normal development. Is there a high level of radiation when flying during pregnancy? Let's learn about it together with the editor below.
Is there high radiation when flying during pregnancy
Generally speaking, flying during pregnancy does not have much radiation and does not have a significant impact on the baby. Small amounts of radiation in daily life cannot be completely avoided, as long as it is not long-term exposure to equipment that emits radiation. Pregnant women should promptly purchase radiation resistant clothing after knowing that they are pregnant, and wear it during the day to reduce radiation damage to a certain extent.
What to pay attention to when flying during pregnancy
1. Choose seats close to the aisle for pregnant women to get up and move around easily.
2. Walk on the plane every hour to ensure smooth blood circulation in the lower limbs. You can also do some simple exercises on a regular basis, such as moving your limbs and turning your ankles.
3. Pregnant women are prone to hunger, so prepare more food in advance.
4. Wear loose, soft clothes and pay attention to keeping warm. Put a small pillow behind to cushion the bumps. Do not fasten the seat belt on the abdomen, fasten it below the abdomen and above the thigh roots
Although flying during pregnancy does not have significant radiation effects on pregnant women, fetal development is not yet very stable in the early stages of pregnancy. Pregnant mothers should try to minimize going out, especially long-distance journeys. In addition, pregnant women who fly should take a series of protective measures, such as wearing masks, to avoid infection with other passengers.
