There's always been a belief in society that "only women who have become mothers truly live their lives."
What seems simple at first glance often holds many profound truths.
Being a good mother is everyone's dream. To achieve this dream better, it is crucial to take care of ourselves during pregnancy.
As a pregnant woman, she must be different from ordinary people. In just ten months, pregnant women have too many things to pay attention to.
There are some things you must do, and some things you must never do.
So, what are the taboos for pregnant women? Food is taboo for pregnant women. Food is the most important thing for the people, and diet is the most important thing for pregnant women.
The diet of a pregnant woman is directly related to the absorption of nutrients by the fetus, so the diet of a pregnant woman is very important during pregnancy.
In ordinary times, some vegetables, fruits and meat products that we think are nutritious may not be edible during this special period of pregnancy.
1. Many pregnant women especially like to eat sour things when they are pregnant. In addition, the saying that "sour children are spicy" is circulating in our country.
When a pregnant woman wants to eat acid, the family buys a large amount of hawthorn for the pregnant woman to eat. However, the hawthorn can stimulate the contraction of the uterus.
Excessive consumption of hawthorn not only does not benefit production, but can also lead to miscarriage.
2. Although fruits such as papaya, longan, persimmon, pineapple, and jujube are rich in nutrition, consuming them in large quantities can have the same effect as that of hawthorn.
Therefore, during pregnancy, it is permissible to consume fruits, but they should be consumed in moderation and not excessively.
3 Tea, coffee and cola should not be drunk during pregnancy.
Foods high in caffeine, alcohol, sugar, fat and protein should be avoided.
The cosmetics that pregnant women should avoid are well known. Cosmetics contain a lot of chemical substances, which are basically made through chemical reactions. Therefore, it is widely understood that pregnant women should not apply cosmetics during pregnancy. However, there are many cosmetic products on the market nowadays, claiming to be harmless for pregnant women.
Are these cosmetics truly harmless? If the cosmetics contain excessive amounts of metals, chemicals, fragrances, alcohol, and preservatives, they should not be used during pregnancy.
No matter how good the advertisement is or how convincing the spokesperson is, if it contains these substances, we will absolutely not use it.
2. If some cosmetics claim to remove pregnancy spots, change the dull skin color during pregnancy, and ensure fair and tender skin during pregnancy, such cosmetics are also not suitable for use.
3. During pregnancy, it is permissible to use cosmetics, but they must be derived from pure vegetable essences and free of additives.
During pregnancy, some plants and flowers should not be cultivated due to their toxicity. They can purify the environment and brighten one's mood, but some are not suitable for cultivation during pregnancy.
1. Flowers with overly strong scents are not suitable for cultivation.
The fragrance of flowers is indeed pleasant, but prolonged inhalation can cause pregnant women to experience dizziness and nausea, which is very harmful to the fetus. For example, hyacinths, jasmine, and lilies are all considered unsuitable for pregnant women.
2. Too much color can be overwhelming.
The color of flowers like red, yellow or green could stimulate the eyes of pregnant women and is very harmful to their retinas. Over time, it can cause dizziness in pregnant women, such as roses and poinsettias.
3. Flowers with thorns cannot be raised.
If flowers have thorns, they should not be kept in homes as it could cause infection or even tetanus if a pregnant woman accidentally cuts her skin. For example, roses and camellias are examples of such plants.
4. Flowers that are easily cancerous should not be kept.
Everyone understands that prolonged contact over time can harm both adults and children, as seen with species like the maidenhair tree and crabapple.
It is recommended that during pregnancy, more and more green plants such as Spider Plant can be kept.
What should a pregnant woman not do? The ten months of pregnancy is a period that is neither very long nor very short. Many people believe that by exercising regularly and believing that if they exercise more, the childbirth will be smoother.
Some people, in an effort to maintain their figure, even continue exercising while pregnant, dreaming of slimming down not just the belly but every part of their body.
Actually, there are many behaviors that must be prohibited during pregnancy.
1. Due to pregnancy, women are prone to experiencing symptoms of lower back and abdominal pain, which are all normal phenomena. It is crucial not to alleviate these discomforts by undergoing massage or applying ointments.
2. During pregnancy, it is permissible for pregnant women to sleep on their left or right side, but flat lying should not be advocated.
3. When pregnant, avoid flying to prevent uterine bleeding.
4. Try to keep away from objects with radiation such as computers, mobile phones, microwave ovens, etc.
5. Try to avoid sexual intercourse during pregnancy, and if you have sex, you must bring a condom.
6. Do not stay up late during pregnancy, do not dye or perm your hair.
Aside from the precautions mentioned above, pregnant women should also pay attention to the following matters: 1. Pregnant individuals must maintain a cheerful mood; regardless of any situation, they must remain calm and not prone to anger. The pregnant woman's emotions directly affect the fetus. If an expectant mother becomes overly excited during pregnancy, it not only can stimulate the fetus but also may lead to miscarriage.
2. Do not always keep the same posture; prolonged sitting can lead to poor blood circulation. It is suggested that after a short period of sitting, one should stand up and exercise their limbs, but avoid vigorous exercise.
3. It is essential to keep the floor of your home clean and dry. If there is any water on the floor, coupled with the inconveniences caused by pregnancy, it can easily lead to a fall. No matter the month, if you fall, there is a possibility of miscarriage.
4. Avoid excessive contact with medications and alcohol, stay away from bars and other entertainment venues, and do not hang out with smokers.
Second-hand smoke poses significant risks to everyone, let alone pregnant women who are already vulnerable.
5. If you are ill, try to avoid taking medication as much as possible. If you must take medication, it is recommended that you communicate with your doctor beforehand before taking it.
The above is a summary of the knowledge points about pregnancy taboos for everyone, hoping to be helpful to you.
At the same time, I hope every pregnant friend can successfully navigate the joyful and stressful days of pregnancy. May you embrace the arrival of your little angel with a heart full of happiness! *The medical content in this article is for reference only.
