In winter, due to the cold weather, pregnant women need to do a good job of nursing. Improper nursing will also have many adverse effects on their health. What precautions do pregnant women take a bath in winter? How should pregnant women bathe in winter? There are many things that pregnant women should pay attention to when taking a bath in winter. Let's learn more about the specific content.

1, pregnant women need to know when taking a bath in winter.

(1) Pay attention to the water temperature.

The temperature of expectant mothers has a great influence on the fetus. When the expectant mother's body temperature exceeds 40℃, it will have an irreversible impact on the brain cells of the fetus. Therefore, expectant mothers should not use too hot water for bathing.

(2) The time is 20 minutes.

Expectant mothers should not take a bath for too long, especially in winter. In the bathroom or shower cover, the air is reduced, the temperature and humidity are high, and the oxygen supply is insufficient. In addition, taking a hot bath will dilate the blood vessels on the whole body surface.

It will lead to insufficient blood supply to the pregnant woman's head, dizziness and fatigue. At the same time, the fetus is deprived of oxygen and the fetal heart sound is accelerated, which will also affect the development of the fetal nervous system. Therefore, it is advisable for pregnant women to take a hot bath within 20 minutes.

(3) A standing shower should be taken for bathing.

Pregnant women should also pay attention to the way of bathing, advocate standing in the shower and avoid sitting in the basin, because the endocrine of women has changed in many ways after pregnancy, reducing the acidic secretions that can kill bacteria in women's private parts.

The natural defense ability is reduced. If you take a sitz bath, bacteria and viruses in dirty water may enter women's private parts and uterus, causing inflammation, salpingitis or urinary tract infection in women's private parts, making pregnant women feel chills, high fever and abdominal pain. And increase the chances of taking medicine, which is more likely to lead to teratoma and premature delivery.

(4) Pay attention to ventilation when using Yuba.

In order to avoid catching a cold, many expectant mothers often use Yuba in the bath, and be careful not to be too hot when using Yuba. In addition, expectant mothers should pay attention to ventilation when taking a bath.

Because the air humidity in the bathroom will be very high after using Yuba, it is easy to cause the expectant mother to lack oxygen and affect the fetus, so try to ventilate while using Yuba; Or try to shorten the use time.

In addition, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor before and after bathing should not be too large. If the temperature difference is too large, it is easy to stimulate expectant mothers to cause uterine contraction, leading to premature delivery and abortion.

After taking a shower, dry your hair and body immediately, put on clothes (at least close-fitting clothes) and then go out of the bathroom to avoid catching a cold because of the large temperature difference between inside and outside the bathroom.

The above are some details about pregnant women taking a bath in winter, such as time, posture, water temperature and so on. So how should pregnant women take a safe bath in winter?

2. How do pregnant women take a bath in winter?

First, bathroom equipment should pay attention to safety.

The bathroom is often slippery, which is the easiest place to slip at home. Careless will cause head, coccyx, limbs injury and fracture, which is very dangerous. It is even more dangerous for expectant mothers to fall, which may cause unfortunate events such as miscarriage or premature birth. Therefore, the most important thing for pregnant women to take a bath is to prevent falling. Therefore, the safety anti-skid equipment in the bathroom must be improved, such as:

1. Spread a non-slip mat on the bathroom floor and clean it regularly to avoid being stuck by too much dirt.

2. Safety handrails should be set around the wall.

3. The washbasin should be installed firmly. Someone once grabbed the washbasin urgently because of slipping, but fell down and hit his foot because of the unstable installation of the washbasin, causing serious fractures.

4. Minimize the sundries in the bathroom, such as chairs, basins and baskets. , to avoid tripping; If you need to place it, just put it aside and concentrate.

5. Buy a shelf (there are two or three floors, which must be fixed) to place all bathroom gadgets, such as shampoo, shower gel, soap box, comb, hair dryer and so on. In order to avoid inconvenience caused by scattering everywhere, or even tripping over people, it will only increase the danger.

Second, buy suitable bath products.

Bath products should be neutral, non-irritating, non-strong fragrance and moisturizing, so as not to hurt the sensitive skin of expectant mothers. Because:

1. If inappropriate bath products are used, allergic phenomena such as dry skin, peeling and even rash may occur.

2. If you use bath products with strong fragrance, it will not only be irritating, but also smell uncomfortable and easily cause dizziness; So, by the same token, we can know that perfume should not be put in the bathroom, because it is irritating to pregnant women and fetuses. Clean the bathroom, as long as it doesn't smell.

Third, you can't take a hot bath, you can only take a bath.

Pregnant 12 weeks, expectant mothers should not take a hot bath to prevent damage to fetal development. A large number of clinical data show that high temperature environment is easy to cause fetal anencephaly or cranial nerve defect. Taking a hot bath, if you don't pay attention to reproductive health care or have reproductive system diseases, may also cause intrauterine infection.

Even in the middle and late pregnancy, it is not advisable to take a hot bath. Generally, a shower with the right temperature is enough. We know that the blood circulation of expectant mothers is different from that of ordinary people. If they experience excessive stimulation of cold and hot water, the adjustment of their heart and brain load is often different from that of ordinary people, and they are prone to shock, dizziness or collapse due to blood circulation disorder, which may lead to unexpected dangers.

Because the high temperature environment may cause fetal brain or cranial nerve defects. Moreover, if the expectant mother intends to take a hot bath in the middle and late pregnancy, it depends on her personal physique, because at this time, her blood circulation is different from that of ordinary people. After experiencing the excessive stimulation of hot and cold water, her heart and brain load may not be well adjusted like ordinary people, which may probably cause shock, dizziness or collapse.

Therefore, it is recommended that expectant mothers use other methods instead of taking a hot bath, such as bathing their feet. It is best to use air conditioning or heating to adjust the indoor temperature in winter. Expectant mothers can't take a bath or take a bath, because it is easy to cause retrograde lovely dyeing of female private parts. However, there are some things to pay attention to when taking a shower:

1. In the third month of pregnancy, you can stand in the shower because of your small stomach, but you must set handrails in the bathroom to prevent the expectant mother from slipping.

2. In the second and third trimester, the expectant mother has a big belly, unstable center of gravity and easy to slip. She must take a bath in a chair with a backrest to avoid falling.

3. What fruit is suitable for pregnancy?
