After marriage, everyone will have a baby, which is the crystallization of love between husband and wife. Women all have the experience of pregnancy, but many girls are unaware of many issues during pregnancy and do not know the meaning of some information that appears during hospital examinations. So, what does 26 week placental grade mean?
The first level of placenta is the maturity level of the placenta. This is the doctor who performs color ultrasound to describe the maturity of the placenta, indicate whether the placenta is aging, whether the blood supply is normal, and at 28 to 32 weeks of pregnancy, it is the best time for the baby's fetal position to be fixed. Go to the hospital for B-ultrasound examination. If the baby's fetal position is not correct, it is necessary to correct the fetal position at this time.
The placenta is divided into four grades, with grades of 0.1.2.3. Grade 0.1 placenta is very tender, and its blood supply and support function are good, which is conducive to the development of the fetus. When the placenta reaches grade 2, it becomes more mature and its absorption capacity begins to decline, leading to a decrease in blood supply and support function. Grade 3 placenta ages, and at this point, the placenta has matured and begun to age, with no absorption capacity left. At this point, the placenta can no longer provide nutrition and oxygen to the fetus.
Expectant mothers who are still pregnant know that the placenta is very important for the fetus. All nutrients, blood, and oxygen of the fetus are provided by the placenta. If there is a problem with the placenta, the development of the fetus will be affected, and in severe cases, it may even lead to fetal hypoxia. If the fetus lacks oxygen, it may lead to problems such as cerebral palsy.
