At present, many elderly pregnant women are busy giving birth to a second child, because the country has only recently opened the second child policy. Therefore, many couples who are close to 40 still want to use this policy to have a second child, but if they want to have a second child at this age, they definitely need to be prepared for pregnancy. So what should they do as a 37-year-old pregnant woman?

How to get pregnant at the age of 37?

1, pre-pregnancy examination

To be on the safe side, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a comprehensive physical examination 3-6 months before pregnancy to provide a good physical foundation for the pregnant baby and avoid some unnecessary troubles during pregnancy (for example, Toxoplasma gondii infection may lead to miscarriage).

Step 2 supplement folic acid

If there is no problem in the pre-pregnancy examination, you can enter the pregnancy preparation stage, and then you will start to supplement folic acid.

Folic acid is generally divided into three different doses, namely 0.4mg, 0.8mg and 5mg, which are suitable for different doses at different times.

The demand for folic acid during pregnancy and early pregnancy is not large, and the dosage of 0.4mg is enough. The demand for folic acid in the middle and late pregnancy is relatively large, and it is recommended to take 0.8mg folic acid every day.

5mg folic acid is generally aimed at people with special needs, and it is a prescription drug, so we generally don't use it.

There are mainly two kinds of folic acid in the market, one is the name of medicine and the other is the name of health care. It is suggested to buy the name of the drug, with stricter supervision and better quality.

3, recuperate the body

In addition to folic acid supplementation, pregnancy preparation should also actively regulate the body and do a good job in prenatal and postnatal care. Quit smoking, drinking and coffee, go to bed early and get up early, exercise more, eat less fried and high-sugar foods, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and pay attention to nutrition.

4. Scientific creation of human beings

When everything is ready, you can start making people. But there are still some tips:

Frequency of sexual intercourse: Although we should actively make people, we should not have too much sexual intercourse, otherwise the quality of tadpoles cannot be guaranteed. The frequency of pregnancy preparation every 3-4 days is similar, but it is more frequent during ovulation, depending on the situation.

Roommate posture: According to personal preference, there is no scientific data to prove which posture is more likely to get pregnant. The key is to relax, so as to be conducive to pregnancy.
