Why does the second pregnancy belly shape look the same as the first pregnancy?

With the opening of the two-child policy, many families now regard having a second child as a part of their life. However, some women find that their belly shape is the same as that of the first child when they are pregnant with the second child. Some people have a son as their first child, and if the second child is also a son, the pressure is usually very great. Therefore, many people worry that if the belly shape of the second child is the same as the first, whether the gender of the child will also be the same.

Why is the second pregnancy's belly shape the same as the first pregnancy?

This is a normal phenomenon. It does not mean that if the fetal shape of the first and second children is the same, they will give birth to a child of the same gender as the first child. This still depends on the time of delivery, so there is no connection between the two.

What are the precautions for caesarean section of the second child?

1. Mothers who have had a caesarean section should wait at least two years before considering having a second child.

2. Before getting pregnant, it is best to see a doctor for an evaluation to see how the uterine scar from the first day of cesarean section has recovered. If the uterine incision does not heal well, it is not suitable to get pregnant again.

3. When you are 6-7 weeks pregnant, you should have an ultrasound examination in time to determine the location of the gestational sac. If you experience abdominal pain and bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy, you must seek medical attention as soon as possible.

4. During pregnancy, avoid adding abdominal pressure to the abdomen, such as heavy physical labor, abdominal collision, coughing, constipation, etc.

5. Seek medical attention as soon as possible if you experience abdominal pain. A scarred uterus may rupture spontaneously in the late stages of pregnancy, with abdominal pain being its main symptom, so mothers of second children must remain vigilant.

The following four major problems may occur when older women become pregnant:

First, the fertility of older women decreases, and they may not ovulate or have irregular ovulation cycles, which reduces their ability to conceive and reduces the chance of pregnancy.

Second, older pregnant women have an increased chance of spontaneous abortion;

Third, the probability of fetal development abnormalities in older pregnant women will also increase, and the probability of various fetal congenital malformations will be much higher than that of women under 35 years old;

Fourth, the chance of premature birth will increase. For a 37-year-old woman, the chance of giving birth to a healthy baby is significantly reduced. Therefore, before planning to have a second child, the potential risks brought by age factors should be considered.

For women aged 37, as their organs age, they may have more physical problems than when they were young, so when preparing for pregnancy, they need to pay attention to the following points:

1. You can do a pre-pregnancy check to see if you are suitable for having a second child and check if you have any diseases that are not suitable for pregnancy.

2. When you are sick (cold, fever, dizziness, etc.), do not abuse medicine. Before taking medicine, you must confirm whether you are pregnant. If you are sure you are pregnant, you need to consult a doctor whether you can take medicine;

3. Pay attention to regular work and rest;

4. Supplement folic acid appropriately.
