How to keep fit during pregnancy
1, you need to maintain your skin in time when you are pregnant.
Not surprisingly, you always look bright because your skin produces more blood and more oil. Other skin changes include: pregnancy spots (facial pigmentation), acne, itchy skin and stretch marks. Massage with body lotion/cream can relieve dry skin and stretch marks to some extent. But be sure to consult your doctor carefully before using any acne products.
2, pregnancy should also be reasonable exercise.
Exercise during pregnancy can give you more energy and prepare for having a baby. As long as the doctor is sure that he is in good health, it is ok to exercise for more than 2.5 hours a week. Some low-intensity exercises, such as walking and swimming, are very good choices. If you have the habit of exercising before pregnancy, ask your doctor if you can continue running, doing aerobic exercise or lifting weights. Pay attention to replenish enough water during exercise, and please stop and rest when you feel dizzy.
3. You can choose massage when your muscles are sore.
Massage or hydrotherapy is definitely a good choice for expectant mothers. Massage helps to release the tension of the whole body and relieve the sadness and pain of muscles. Of course, before you go, you must get the doctor's consent and choose a professional masseur with a prenatal massage license. Most spas are safe, but avoid saunas and mud baths, which will raise your body temperature. In addition, please note that your skin may be more sensitive to some items at this time, such as facial spa.
4. What about emotional ups and downs?
During pregnancy, you may feel like riding a roller coaster. I am not only looking forward to the coming baby, but also worried about the birth and the identity of the new mother. Complex emotions are mixed with hormonal changes during pregnancy-your emotions can't control yourself. However, you are by no means alone. Many pregnant women are just like you. In this regard, you should ensure enough rest and do some stress-reducing activities, such as exercising and chatting with friends. If you feel depressed, ask the doctor for help in time.
How should pregnant women measure their weight?
How should pregnant women measure their weight? The method of weighing pregnant women is that pregnant women need to take off their shoes before weighing, and then stand on the scale to measure.
Using the weight measured in the first birth check-up as a reference value to estimate the future pregnancy weight, the range of weight gain after pregnancy is determined by the physical condition of pregnant women. Generally speaking, the normal weight gain range is between 10- 13kg.
If the weight does not increase or the increase is less than normal, it may be caused by intrauterine growth retardation or malnutrition of pregnant women. If you gain more than 0.5kg per week, you should pay attention to whether there is any abnormality. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and find out the reason. The most common cases of abnormal weight gain of pregnant women are obesity, polyhydramnios, pregnancy edema or multiple pregnancies caused by overnutrition of pregnant women.
Pregnant women can measure their weight at home with a maternal and child safety scale. Due to the changes in the body shape and flexibility of pregnant women in the second and third trimesters, we must choose a smart maternal and child safety scale with large scale surface and large scale feet.
