Lens 1: Can you take medicine after all?
Diary of an unexpected mother from a netizen: I seem to have caught a cold when I was pregnant for more than a month, but I don't know how to get better later. Now I have a cough, stuffy nose and headache. The child's father has always been inconsiderate, and he only knows how to buy medicine, even in this extraordinary period of mine. Ladies and gentlemen, what do you eat when you are pregnant with a cold and what works quickly?
Reasons: After pregnancy, the cellular immune function of expectant mothers is weakened, which increases their susceptibility to poisons; Moreover, due to the thickening, edema and congestion of the upper respiratory tract mucosa during pregnancy, the local resistance is reduced, which is more susceptible to infection than before pregnancy and causes a cold.
Symptoms: When the body feels fever, chills, stuffy nose, runny nose, cough, headache, body aches, loss of appetite, swollen tonsils and congestion in the throat, it means a cold.
Netizen: Try your best.
Netizen Beibei Mommy: I also had a cold and fever twice during pregnancy. My family and I were worried and went to see a doctor. Their words are: don't use it if you can, drink more water and go home to observe. After returning home, LG fumigated the whole room with vinegar, which was considered disinfection. Then boil it into soup with ginger, garlic and vinegar, cover it with a quilt and sleep, that's it! The temperature didn't rise again at night, and the fever went down the next day! Thankfully, I basically recovered after two days! This is the first time I haven't taken medicine!
Netizen pengmouse: I just caught a cold last week and had a low fever. I'm too worried to take medicine. Cook soup with ginger and onion every night, and soak your feet with very hot Jiang Shui and salt. Two days didn't have much effect. Later, I listened to my grandmother, wiped my feet with mugwort and Jiang Shui, and smoked my nose with the steam of salt water. After that, I climbed into bed, covering my sweat. Two days later, I got over my cold. But it is also inseparable from this process, that is, drinking more hot water during the day. Anyway, I had a cold for four days.
Netizen grapefruit mother: There is also a way! I coughed in February when I was pregnant, and I was scared at that time. I definitely can't take medicine. Later, I cooked pear flower soup at home, stewed it with rock sugar, and then ate it. This is very useful. Drink water from a cup if you have nothing to do during the day, and it will be fine in a few days. This mother can try.
Expert: all drugs are forbidden in the first three months of pregnancy.
Generally speaking, all drugs are forbidden in the first three months of pregnancy, because the first three months are the key period of embryo formation. Non-drug therapies such as massage and physical therapy can be used. And drink more boiled water, eat more fruits, and keep the stool unobstructed. Drugs should be used with caution in the second trimester, such as gentamicin, streptomycin and kanamycin, which are harmful to the auditory nerve, and it is best not to use them as much as possible. Moreover, medication in the third trimester generally has little effect on the fetus.
If it is a mild cold, it only shows sneezing, runny nose and mild cough, and no special treatment is needed. Drink more water, drink some juice drinks, and increase the content of vitamin C to dilute the concentration of bacteria and viruses. Or pour hot water at about 42-60℃ into the teacup, put your mouth and nose into the inner mouth of the teacup, inhale hot steam several times a day and rest for a few days. If medication is used, it should be taken as appropriate under the guidance of a doctor. If necessary, you can take Chinese patent medicines, such as Yinqiao Jiedu tablets, Banlangen granules and Ganmao granules. And the effect is better. If the cold is serious, pregnant women should go to hospital for treatment in time when they have severe cough, chest tightness, fever and other symptoms.
Lens 2: I have a bad cough and dare not take medicine. Even my voice has changed.
Diary of netizen Ma Nannan: Last week, my colleagues in my office caught a cold and got infected the next day. I can't even speak at work today, and I have a bad cough. The more you cough, the more you worry about what will happen to the baby in your stomach, but you can't take medicine indiscriminately. The doctor said you can eat it, but you dare not. Later, he asked his colleagues to buy 10G Fritillaria powder, and he ate half a pack. I still cough at night and my voice has changed. Husband also joked that the sound became much gentler and dizzy. I had a bad cold when I was more than four months old. My husband caught it. Later, I went to the hospital and hung up penicillin injections for four days to get better. I don't think the injection will be given this time, because the medicine is still not good for the baby. What should I do?
Netizen: You can't keep squatting. Be sure to take medicine when it is time to take it.
Netizen Sakura Sato: I remember catching a cold once when I was four months pregnant. At that time, my husband was worried and asked me to go to the hospital. As a result, the doctor said I didn't have a fever, so I drank some Banlangen. The first time I got pregnant, I thought I couldn't take medicine. Later, my throat was particularly uncomfortable, but I still couldn't accept the medicine. As a result, my husband said it was no problem to drink Banlangen. If the virus is serious, it will affect my children. There is no way, so I, the pregnant mother, still have to take care of herself and her baby!
Netizen I am BB Mom: I was never sick when I was pregnant with Dabao. Bao caught a cold once, which was infected by her husband. She also has a high fever. She also drank more water and Jiang Shui, but the effect was not great. Later, I had a fever of more than 39 degrees and had to take an injection to reduce the fever. At that time, I was afraid of affecting the child, but the doctor said that the fetus had formed and the medicine had little effect on the child, so I took an injection. Whether to take medicine or not depends on the actual situation. If I hadn't had an injection and had a high fever, it would have affected the children.
Netizen Xing Qing℃: Take medicine. My husband also supports taking medicine. In LG's words, pregnant women are human beings and have the right to get sick. The medicine prescribed by the doctor can be used It's good for the baby and mother to use it quickly. I just caught a cold last week, and I dare not take medicine myself. Still LG called me to see a doctor, saying that it would be more troublesome to have a fever, and asked me to go to the hospital to prescribe medicine.
Expert advice: how to deal with a cold is the safest for pregnant mothers.
After catching a cold, it is a good strategy to eat more foods rich in vitamin C, replenish a lot of water to expel viruses from the body, and get enough sleep. Eating more minerals, vitamins, high-quality foods high in protein (such as meat, seafood, livestock, tomatoes, nuts, peppers, chicken soup, beverage heating, yogurt, fresh fruit) and getting enough sleep can increase resistance. Therefore, adequate nutrition and adequate sleep are shortcuts. If the fever is below 37.4℃, a slight cold can be cured by proper rest and careful diet without medication. The fever is over 37.5 degrees and the body is extremely unwell. You must be careful to prevent complications such as pneumonia. It is best not to take a bath, but mainly to rely on quiet and adequate sleep for treatment. The cold is almost over. The most dangerous thing is to go to the pharmacy to buy medicine at will and accept the diagnosis and treatment of nearby obstetricians and gynecologists. This is the right choice.
Experts remind: Most cold medicines are compound preparations containing many ingredients. Common ones are Xiao Su Shangfeng Capsule, Ganmaotong, Contac, Baijiahei, Kangbide, Kegankang and Kuaike. Most of these drugs contain histamine, so they should not be taken during pregnancy, especially before the fourth week of pregnancy. Cold medicine is mainly symptomatic medicine, which is not safe for pregnant women. Therefore, pregnant women are advised not to use anti-cold drugs.
Indomethacin is an antipyretic and aspirin should not be used after 32 weeks of pregnancy. Expectorant and antitussive drugs. It is generally safe, but cough medicine containing iodine preparation is not suitable for pregnant women.
Lens 3: I'm pregnant for 6 months. What if you have a bad cold?
Diary of a netizen's mother Hehe: I caught a bad cold these days because of the weather. I don't feel well. Taking medicine and seeing all kinds of cold medicines all say that pregnant women should use them with caution. My stomach is six months old. I don't know what to do. I'm afraid taking medicine will affect the fetus, I'm afraid it will affect the fetus!
Netizen: It is not good for your baby to get sick and delay treatment.
Netizen Tian Fei Pig: I remember I caught a cold when I was pregnant for three months, and I feel the same as you do now. Pregnant women use drugs with caution, but unless they can heal themselves, they can't cure colds. I was in August, and the obstetrician and gynecologist suggested that I use Radix Isatidis. I just made up my mind to drink a pack, and then I regretted it, because although the side effects were very small, after all, the baby was growing important organs for the first three months, and then he drank boiled water and ginger. The baby is growing well now. I can understand the feeling of being a mother. You should use natural methods first. If you have a bad cold, you must see a doctor. You can't be careless
Netizen: I like to go for a ride: relax. The high incidence of teratogenicity during pregnancy is in the first three months. It's not good for the baby to get sick without treatment. The baby's immunity is very strong, so don't worry too much.
Netizen * * * leans against the sunset: I got a bad cold when I was pregnant for 4 months. I couldn't sleep after coughing all night. I can't go to the hospital for four days. I have to take cephalosporin and cough medicine, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on my baby.
Expert: Being sick during pregnancy is not necessarily good.
Many pregnant women have a misunderstanding in their hearts, that is, they can't take drugs during pregnancy, fearing that drugs will cause fetal malformation. In fact, through long-term clinical and animal research, the known and some teratogenic drugs have been very clear. Commonly used anti-cold drugs are not teratogenic drugs, and practice has proved that they have no teratogenic effect. Ganmao Qingre Granule and Banlangen Granule, which are commonly used for colds, have good effects on relieving fever and other symptoms, and long-term application practice shows that they are very safe drugs. In addition, in the early stage of a cold, taking a lot of vitamin C and drinking more water will also help the body recover. When accompanied by high fever, especially in the first trimester, active physical cooling should be carried out, and some antipyretic drugs (such as containing antipyretics) can still be used. If not actively treated, high fever itself has a teratogenic effect.
Antibiotics can be used when there is bacterial infection. It is safe to use penicillin (after allergy test) and cephalosporin during pregnancy, and there is no toxic side effect on fetus. For cold symptoms such as nasal congestion and runny nose, nasal drops can be used locally, and cough and expectoration can be treated with antitussive and expectorant drugs, such as Chuanbei loquat dew and brown amine mixture. When serious complications occur, it is also important to actively support treatment, such as infusion and strengthening nutrition. In order to ensure the safety of medication, medication should be taken according to the doctor's advice.
Lens 4: Do you need to see a doctor if you have a cold and fever?
Diary of netizen Li Mei: Today, I felt a little sick in my throat and went to work without eating. But then I felt as if I had no strength and a little fever. Have you ever been in such a situation? Do you need to see a doctor?
Netizen: A fever will damage your baby's brain. You must see a doctor.
Netizen qdamy: When I was four months old, my tonsils were inflamed and my fever was 38.4 degrees. I went to the hospital and the doctor asked me to take penicillin. I was allergic to penicillin, so I took cephalosporin and my fever went down in one shot. The doctor said that if you don't diminish inflammation and insist on taking Chinese medicine, it is difficult to get rid of the high fever.
Netizen 2004 Huxi: I had a fever of 38.7 when I was eight and a half months old. After consultation in obstetrics and gynecology and fever clinic, I took penicillin for three days and two tablets of SMZ to reduce my fever. The doctor said it wouldn't affect my baby.
Netizen monica 12882: I have a cold twice every 35 weeks. It's the first time to eat, and I didn't take medicine. Now I have a low fever and cough. I took 4 tablets of amoxicillin, with a small dose of 0. 1.25 tablets. The doctor said you can eat it. It's penicillin or something, not through the placenta. Still a little uneasy. Low fever has gone down, cough and cough. It is not good to use rock sugar Sydney every day.
Netizen happy bubble oOoO: If you insist on not taking medicine, it will also cause harm to your baby, such as fever, which will damage your baby's brain.
Expert: High fever will affect embryo development, so you should seek medical advice in time.
For lying-in women, the most worrying thing about fever is whether it will endanger the health of the fetus. If it is only a short period of mild fever, it will generally not cause harm to the mother or fetus. In this case, physical methods can be considered to help reduce the fever, such as ice pillow, heat dissipation paste, warm water wipe and so on. If the fever is above 38.5℃, it is very dangerous. Especially in the early pregnancy, that is, within three months of pregnancy, high fever will affect the embryo, leading to miscarriage and fetal malformation. At this time, pregnant women should seek medical treatment in time. Under the guidance of doctors, it is safe for both the fetus and pregnant women to use physical methods to cool down or use penicillin antibiotics for treatment.
Effect of Cold on Fetus
Most colds have no obvious effect on the health of mothers and fetuses. The common cold virus may still increase the chance of miscarriage, but it will not increase the rate of fetal abnormalities. As for the brief mild fever when catching a cold, generally speaking, it will not cause harm to the mother or fetus. However, some studies have found that if the body temperature of pregnant women is higher than 38.9℃ in the first 5-6 weeks of pregnancy (that is, neural tube development period) and lasts for more than 24 hours, the probability of fetal neural tube defects (such as anencephaly) may increase. However, it must be emphasized that few pregnant women will let their body temperature rise so high.
As for the influence of influenza virus, according to previous statistical reports, if pregnant women suffer from influenza, the possible effects on the fetus include congenital malformation (including neural tube defects, limb defects and), abortion death and low birth weight fetus, while the probability of suffering from hematological cancer in childhood is higher, and the probability of suffering from Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia in adulthood is higher; But in fact, the probability of these anomalies is not high.
Under what circumstances must I go to the hospital?
(1) fever is above 39℃. Once the fever exceeds 39℃, it may cause fetal disability and abortion. In addition, sometimes it looks like a cold, but it may also be pyelonephritis.
(2) Chronic cough does not heal. If the severe cough lasts for a week or 10 days, it may be fungal or mycoplasma pneumonia. General antibiotic treatment has no effect, so we must carefully check the treatment.
If expectant mothers cough for a long time, they need to pay special attention, because the cough at this time is not only serious, but also difficult to cure. If there is no good communication with doctors, it is very likely to lead to other complications. If the cough is mild, as long as you make some steam in the living room to prevent the indoor air from drying, you can relieve the symptoms. If the cold is serious enough to affect your sleep, you should see a doctor and tell him about your pregnancy and the actual number of weeks of pregnancy. Doctors usually use some safe prescriptions.
Early pregnancy (before the third month of pregnancy) is the period when various organs of the fetus are formed. If the expectant mother has the flu, the symptoms are more serious and the impact on the fetus will be greater. At this time, taking medicine is also risky to the fetus, so it should be used reasonably under the guidance of a doctor.
What are the key measures to prevent colds in winter?
● Try not to go to crowded places or go less.
● Pay attention to the ventilation of windows to keep the air fresh. Some expectant mothers think that the low temperature in winter often makes the doors and windows closed, which is actually inappropriate. Because the indoor air is not circulated, its pollutants cannot be distributed, and the density of virus and bacteria is much higher than that of outdoor, which is more likely to cause respiratory tract. Therefore, even in winter, it is necessary to ventilate for at least 20 minutes every day.
● Wear warm and comfortable clothes, and avoid wearing too thin or too heavy.
● Pay attention to balanced nutrition and don't overeat. Some expectant mothers think that eating more food to increase nutrition is to eat for the baby in the belly. In fact, this idea is biased. On the one hand, excess calories will accumulate in the mother's body and be converted into fat, resulting in relatively insufficient insulin and abnormal glucose metabolism in the middle and late pregnancy. On the other hand, eating too much will increase the burden on the digestive tract, which is also one of the reasons for colds.
● Strengthen. During pregnancy, expectant mothers also need to pay due attention to improve their disease resistance. At the same time, we should also pay attention to proper rest, maintain normal life patterns and adequate sleep, and avoid overwork.
Carry, don't take medicine,
