First, the choice of shower gel
The shower gel used by mothers in the third trimester should be carefully selected. If the mother uses some bath lotion that is irritating to the skin, this irritating ingredient may be absorbed by the fetus through the skin, affecting the normal development of the baby. Therefore, it is recommended that pregnant mothers choose special bath milk during pregnancy to protect their skin without worrying about affecting the fetus.
Second, the bath time
In the third trimester, it is best for mothers to take a bath for no more than 20 minutes. In fact, it takes more than ten minutes to take a bath every day in summer. The longer the bath time, the higher the temperature in the bathroom. Pregnant mothers tend to feel weak and dizzy in this environment, and the reduction of oxygen in the air will also affect the mother's delivery of fresh oxygen to the fetus. Therefore, mothers must pay attention to the time when taking a bath.
Third, the water temperature
It is also important to adjust the water temperature when the mother takes a bath in the third trimester. Too high or too low is not good for the fetus, but it may stimulate the fetus to cause contractions, which is not good. So it is very important to adjust the water temperature to a moderate temperature.
Fourth, pay attention to non-slip.
In the third trimester, the mother's body will be heavier than the average person. If the center of gravity is unstable and your feet slip in the shower, it will be more difficult for you to adjust your body than the average person. If she doesn't adjust in time, she will easily fall down. Therefore, pregnant mothers should pay more attention to the safety of her feet when taking a bath. She can prepare anti-slip mats in the bathroom, which can effectively prevent falling. In addition, in the third trimester, it is best for mothers to take a bath when there are people at home, so that if there is discomfort during bathing, someone around them can take care of it in time.
Five, clean parts
In the third trimester, mothers should not only wash away sweat, but also pay attention to the cleanliness of private parts. When cleaning breasts, don't care too much, so as not to feel uncomfortable. In addition, it is best to clean the private parts with clear water to prevent the bath milk from drying out by destroying its unique weak acid environment.
Sixth, the shower mode.
It is best for mothers in the third trimester not to take a bath, which is not conducive to the hygiene of private parts. In contrast, a shower head is more suitable for a shower.
