Improper belly touching during pregnancy can cause abnormal fetal position

　　The Disadvantage of Touching the Belly 1: Frequent belly touching is equivalent to taking an oxytocin injection

　　Pregnant women who are less than 36 weeks pregnant must not touch their belly frequently, as this may cause Uterus shrinkage, which may result in baby premature birth。

　　Disadvantages of belly touching indiscriminately 2: Improper techniques can cause Umbilical cord around neck

　　After some pregnant women were pregnant, their colleagues and friends liked her belly very much. In the past, she was very indifferent and just touched it. She also liked to touch it back and forth vigorously, several times a day, and sometimes patted her belly. Later, during a B-ultrasound, she found that the baby was wrapped around the neck. Then I remembered that I had seen some related posts in the past saying that if you touch the belly too much, the baby will play with it in the future, causing the baby to wrap around the neck.

　　Disadvantages of touching the belly randomly: Improper technique can also cause abnormal fetal position

　　Of course, stroking the belly is an effective way to communicate with the baby. What I want to say here is not to prevent pregnant mothers from touching their bellies, but to remind pregnant mothers to touch them in the correct way. fetus , then let Xingyuncao take you to understand the techniques of stroking the belly.

　　This is required for "stroking prenatal education" at different stages

　　Under normal circumstances, the fetus begins to move within the mother's body starting from the second month of pregnancy, but the range of movement at this time is very small and cannot be sensed by the expectant mother. As the pregnancy months increase, the range of activities will increase, ranging from swallowing amniotic fluid, squinting, smacking fingers, clenching fists, to stretching limbs, turning around, turning somersaults, etc. Generally, after the first trimester of pregnancy, prenatal care can be implemented by stroking. Here are several methods of stroking prenatal care.

　　Method 1: Stroking back and forth

　　Implementation month: After 3 months of pregnancy, some back and forth stroking exercises can be performed.

　　Specific method: When the expectant mother's abdomen is completely relaxed, use her hands to stroke it back and forth from top to bottom, from left to right. In your heart, you can imagine that your hands are really caressing the cute baby, and you feel a sense of joy and happiness, and you think deeply: "Baby, mommy loves you so much"; "Baby is so comfortable"; "Baby will grow up quickly and grow into a smart and cute baby", etc.

　　Note: When stroking, the movements should be gentle and the time should not be too long. 2-5 minutes each time.

　　Method 2: Touch and tap method

　　Implementation month: After 4 months of pregnancy, gentle touching and tapping exercises can be performed on the basis of stroking.

　　Specific methods: The expectant mother lies on her back and relaxes her abdomen. First, she touches her abdomen from top to bottom and from left to right with her hands, and gently presses and lifts it with her fingers. Then she gently makes some pressing and tapping movements to provide tactile stimulation to the fetus. At the beginning, the fetus will not respond. Expectant mothers should not be discouraged. They must persist in doing it regularly for a long time. It usually takes a few weeks for the fetus to respond, such as the body squirming slightly and the hands and feet turning.

　　Note: Start with 5 minutes each time, and wait for the baby to respond, then continue with 5 to 10 minutes each time. When pressing and slapping the fetus, the movements must be gentle. The expectant mother should also pay attention to the reaction of the fetus at any time. If she feels that the fetus is struggling or kicking its legs, it means that it does not like it and should stop immediately.

　　Method 3: Promote walking method

　　Implementation month: After 6 or 7 months of pregnancy, when the expectant mother can clearly touch the head, back and limbs of the fetus on the abdomen, she can increase the practice of pushing and walking.

　　Specific methods: The expectant mother lies flat on the bed, relaxes her whole body, gently strokes, presses, and pats her abdomen back and forth. At the same time, she can also gently push the fetus with her hands to let the fetus "take a walk and do exercises" in the womb.

　　Note: This exercise should be performed under the guidance of a doctor to avoid abdominal pain, uterine contractions, and even premature birth caused by improper or excessive force. 5 to 10 minutes each time, the movements should be gentle and natural, the force should be even and appropriate, and avoid roughness. If the fetus twists its body back and forth with force, the expectant mother should stop pushing immediately and gently touch the abdomen with her hands, and the fetus will slowly calm down.

　　Paida and exercise methods are not suitable for those who are within 3 months of pregnancy, who are close to delivery, or who have early uterine contractions. When training, the technique should be gentle, step by step, and should not be rushed. Even during the peak training period of 7-8 months of pregnancy, each session should not exceed 5 minutes. Otherwise, it will only encourage growth and be counterproductive.

　　Method 4: Parent-child game method

　　Implementation month: After 5 months of pregnancy, if there is fetal movement, parent-child games can be played.

　　Specific methods: During each game, the expectant mother should first touch and pat the abdomen gently and rhythmically from top to bottom and from left to right with her hands. When the fetus fights back with her little hands or feet, the expectant mother can gently pat the area where it was kicked or pushed twice. After a while, the baby will fight back again inside. At this time, the expectant mother should change the position of the pat. The changed position should not be too far from the original patted position. The fetus will quickly fight back to the changed position. Repeat this several times, don't have any fun in it.

　　Note: This kind of parent-child game is best done before going to bed every night, when the fetus is most active. The time should not be too long, usually 10 minutes each time, to avoid causing the fetus to be too excited, causing the mother-to-be to be unable to sleep peacefully for a long time.
