Pregnant women need to go to the hospital for prenatal check ups every month, mainly to examine the condition of the baby and the pregnant woman's own physical condition. If there are any problems with the baby, they can also be changed through medication or diet. Every prenatal check-up requires checking the size of the baby. If there are always problems, there is always a reason. So, what is the reason for a larger abdominal circumference?
If the baby's abdominal circumference is found to be too large during prenatal examination, a second examination is needed because a larger abdominal circumference may be caused by bloating in the stomach, as the baby may experience meconium at this time. In addition, if the baby has digestive tract diseases, there may also be a problem of larger abdominal circumference. Pregnant women who do not control their diet in the late stages of pregnancy can also lead to a larger fetal abdominal circumference if they eat too much.
If the abdominal circumference is too large due to bloating, this situation will naturally resolve. Due to intestinal function issues, the abdominal circumference is relatively large. If other tests are normal, pregnant women do not need to worry and can wait for the baby to be born before adjusting. Due to excessive intake by pregnant women, the baby's abdominal circumference tends to be larger, so it is necessary to control diet at this time.
Overall, having a larger abdominal circumference is not a big problem. Pregnant women can relax and ensure a light diet, avoiding greasy and high calorie foods. In addition, it is best not to eat too many eggs and sweet potatoes during late pregnancy, as this can easily cause bloating.
