What should you know in the third week of pregnancy?

When a woman knows she is in the third week of pregnancy, her mood will change. She will feel the maternal love in her subconscious mind and will unconsciously touch her belly which has not yet bulged. She will imagine the situation when the baby appears in her life, and a warm feeling will come from her heart. So, what should women know after the third week of pregnancy? Here are five points, let’s take a look at them together.

1. Correct pregnancy test: The accuracy rate of pregnancy test sticks generally available on the market is over 98%. Once conception is successful, the fertilized egg will continue to produce cell division and secrete a hormone called hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin). Now, you can use a pregnancy test stick to check whether you are pregnant. Remember to use morning urine for more accurate results.

2. What should you pay attention to in the early stages of pregnancy: The fetus is very fragile, especially when you are just pregnant. You should pay special attention to staying away from environments that are not conducive to embryonic development. Electromagnetic radiation, noise and vibration can all increase your chances of miscarriage. If these risk factors exist in your work environment, you should try to avoid them for the safety of your baby.

3. Colds in early pregnancy: You are very susceptible to colds in the early stages of pregnancy, so you should pay attention to preventing and treating colds. If you have a cold, fever or cough, you must not take medicine on your own. If the drug is not selected properly, it will affect the fetus. In addition, rest and nutrition are very important for recovery from the disease. Drink more water, rest more, and take less medication.

4. Anti-radiation clothing: At 3 weeks pregnant, you may have just learned that you are pregnant, and the worries of being a first-time mother come along with the joy. You may become extra cautious. There are many sources of radiation in life, so you may need an anti-radiation suit. The main radiation protection clothing currently available on the market is made of a variety of materials, and the effects vary depending on the material. You can choose according to your needs.

5. Abdominal pain in early pregnancy: During this stage, you may experience abdominal pain. Don’t worry too much. In most cases, abdominal pain in early pregnancy is caused by physiological changes and will be relieved as the body gradually adapts. However, if the abdominal pain is accompanied by abnormal vaginal bleeding, it may be a symptom of miscarriage. You need to go to the hospital for examination in time.

I believe the above five points are very useful for first-time pregnant mothers. Correctly responding to various situations that arise in the third week of pregnancy is a protection and responsibility for the fetus just formed in the womb, allowing the horn of health and safety to blow louder and louder for the unborn baby.
