What check-ups should be done during the 40th day of pregnancy?

The first three months of pregnancy are the early stages of pregnancy. During this period, the pregnant woman's physical and mental changes are very large. Necessary diagnostic examinations play a key role in the baby's growth and development and whether the pregnant woman can successfully go through pregnancy and delivery. With the development of medicine, people are gradually paying attention to the importance of early pregnancy examination. The first check-up in early pregnancy is usually done around 40 days after menstruation. The doctor will ask about the medical history, perform a gynecological examination, and confirm the pregnancy. If necessary, prenatal consultation and genetic counseling should be conducted to determine whether the pregnant woman can continue the pregnancy. An early pregnancy checkup can determine whether the size of the uterus matches the time of menopause, thereby understanding the development of the embryo, and detecting abnormalities of the reproductive organs and gynecological diseases. Another part of the early pregnancy checkup is to do blood, urine and liver function tests to detect various diseases that affect pregnancy as early as possible. After the pregnancy is confirmed, early pregnancy check-ups should be done every month starting from the third month of pregnancy until the sixth month of pregnancy. The examination includes measuring blood pressure, weight and height of the uterine fundus, listening to the fetal heart rate, and rechecking blood, urine, and leucorrhea when necessary. If examination confirms that the pregnancy will put the pregnant woman's life in danger, or if the baby is found to have serious congenital malformations, the pregnancy should be terminated as soon as possible.

What should women pay attention to during their 40th day of pregnancy?

1. Dizziness: Dizziness in early pregnancy may be caused by anemia, but it is more likely caused by hypoglycemia. This is because most of the nutrients in the expectant mother's diet are absorbed by the fetus. Although blood sugar rises when eating, it will soon drop again. In addition, blood pressure fluctuates greatly during pregnancy, especially when you stand up suddenly, you will feel dizzy. It is best for expectant mothers to divide their meals into several times and eat small meals frequently. Don't stay hungry for too long, and always carry some biscuits and other snacks with you.

2. Cold: If the symptoms are mild, there is no need to take medicine. You can also use Chinese patent medicines such as cold granules. If the cold does not cause fever and is not particularly serious, it is best not to take those medicines. Drink more ginger soup. If you have a stuffy nose, cover it with a hot towel. Also, drink more water. If the symptoms are severe, take medication appropriately under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Constipation: Many expectant mothers are afraid that being active will hurt the fetus, and coupled with the special "care" of their family members, they often reduce their activities and sit or lie down all day, which reduces the gastrointestinal digestion ability of the already reduced peristalsis, aggravating abdominal distension and constipation. Expectant mothers in the early stages of pregnancy must not use laxatives indiscriminately, as laxatives can easily cause miscarriage or premature birth. For some pregnant women with milder symptoms, food therapy can be used. Eat more fruits, green leafy root vegetables, and cereals and potatoes that are rich in crude fiber, and drink plenty of water every day.

4. Stomach pain: During pregnancy, the uterus expands, which puts a certain amount of pressure on various organs, so the stomach may be affected. When the baby grows bigger, shortness of breath may occur. In addition, hCG in the blood rises rapidly during pregnancy, which has the effect of preserving the fetus, but at the same time it also has the side effect of irritating the stomach, which is also the reason why many expectant mothers experience morning sickness. Eating easily digestible foods and eating small and frequent meals every day can help relieve stomach pain.
