Sitting for a long time during pregnancy can cause fetal growth retardation

Although women are very precious during pregnancy, they are not completely unable to move. Moderate exercise can help with fertility, but improper exercise can cause harm. Some pregnant women are unwilling to exercise and prefer to sit all the time. In fact, this is very detrimental to the development of the fetus. Maintaining a posture for a long time may cause fetal arrest. Anyway, physical exercise is not scary. What’s scary is permanent reproductive arrest, so try to get up and walk around after sitting for half an hour.

It is not certain at this time. After all, everyone’s situation is different. You still need to pay more attention and rest more, and it will be better. During pregnancy, you should pay attention to doing some routine check-ups.

It is best not to sit for a long time during pregnancy, as it will cause the baby to lack of oxygen. You can go out for some exercise during work. If the fetus stops moving, you will have stomach pain and all the early pregnancy symptoms will disappear. Mothers don’t need to worry about regular prenatal checkups.

Sitting for long periods of time can damage the ovaries and cause fetal growth retardation

According to clinical statistics, about 10% of women of childbearing age have experienced fetal growth retardation, especially those who often sit in offices.

Generally, you should avoid strenuous exercise in the early stages of pregnancy, but it is okay if your job requires you to sit for long periods of time. Pay attention to moving around in between. If the abdominal pain is not obvious, you can continue to observe. If you are worried about any abnormalities, you can arrange an ultrasound examination. This situation is considered to have little impact on the fetus. Although this is the case, it is still recommended to exercise appropriately in the early stages of pregnancy, pay attention to rest, and combine work and rest.

It is not good to sit or move for a long time in the early stages of pregnancy, but it is still important to rest more and pay attention to strengthening nutrition.

Early diagnosis of fetal growth retardation

1. Symptoms:

Most pregnant women have no obvious symptoms after the fetus stops developing. Some pregnant women may have spotting but no abdominal pain, which is different from threatened abortion.

2. Diagnosis:

Patients with a history of amenorrhea should undergo B-ultrasound examination in the early stages of pregnancy, regardless of whether they have spotting or not, to avoid missing the diagnosis of fetal growth retardation. B-ultrasound monitors embryo and fetal development. If there is no gestational sac at ≥6 weeks, or a gestational sac is present but is deformed and wrinkled, or if the gestational sac is ≥4cm but no fetal bud is seen, or if the head and arm length of the fetal bud is ≥1.5cm but there is no fetal heartbeat, it can be determined that the embryo or fetus is developing abnormally. The latter three situations are diagnosed as fetal growth retardation. In addition, blood β-hcG measurement can also help diagnose fetal growth retardation. If blood β-hcG is <100IU/L at ≥5 weeks, or <2000IU/L at ≥6 weeks, this indicates insufficient secretion of human chorionic gonadotropin. If the value no longer rises during dynamic observation, it can be determined that the chorionic epithelium is degenerating and the embryo is abnormal.
