Risk of childbirth at an advanced age
With the development of society, more and more couples choose late marriage and late childbearing. However, the elderly childbirth is also accompanied by a series of risks, which not only affect the health of pregnant women, but also may adversely affect the health of the fetus and newborn. Therefore, we need to take a series of measures to reduce the risk of elderly childbearing.
Control chronic diseases before pregnancy
In the stage of preparation for pregnancy, both husband and wife should carry out physical examination in a timely manner, especially for people with chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, etc., more attention should be paid to disease control. Pregnant women with these chronic diseases, once pregnant, may face problems such as fetal growth defects, premature delivery, low birth weight, etc. Regular reexamination and medication according to the doctor's recommendations will help reduce the incidence of complications during pregnancy. In addition, improving living habits, maintaining a healthy weight, balanced diet and moderate exercise are also crucial to the health of pregnant women.
In addition, many elderly pregnant women also face higher risk of genetic diseases during pregnancy. Therefore, genetic counseling, inspection and screening can detect possible genetic problems as early as possible and provide necessary medical and psychological support.
Strengthening health care during pregnancy
Once pregnant, elderly pregnant women need to strengthen health care during pregnancy. First of all, prenatal examination should be carried out regularly to monitor the development of the fetus and the physical condition of pregnant women. In this way, possible complications can be found and handled as early as possible.
At the same time, elderly pregnant women need to pay attention to reasonable nutrition intake. Pregnant women need to increase their intake of protein, calcium, folic acid and iron. Patients with chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes need to follow the diet recommendations of doctors or nutritionists, control blood pressure and blood sugar, and pay attention to preventing excessive weight gain.
In addition, older pregnant women should also pay attention to avoid infection and trauma. Follow the doctor's advice, reasonably arrange work, rest and physical activity, avoid strenuous activity and overwork, and effectively prevent complications during pregnancy.
Select regular hospitals for obstetric services
In order to ensure the health of elderly pregnant women and fetuses, it is very important to choose a formal and authoritative hospital for obstetric services. Regular hospitals are equipped with professional obstetricians and nurses to provide high-quality maternity services. Older pregnant women can receive comprehensive prenatal care in the hospital, and timely respond to various emergency situations.
In addition, the regular hospital is also equipped with modern equipment and technology, which can carry out various prenatal examinations, screening and genetic counseling to ensure timely detection and treatment of potential risks. It can also provide rich experience in the treatment of gynecological and obstetric diseases and provide safe and reliable surgical procedures.
summary
Although there are a series of risks in elderly childbearing, these risks can be well reduced by controlling chronic diseases before pregnancy, strengthening health care during pregnancy, following doctors' suggestions and choosing regular hospitals for obstetric services. Therefore, both husband and wife should fully understand and take corresponding measures to ensure the health of themselves and the baby before deciding to have a late baby.
