What will happen if you do heavy work in early pregnancy

Generally speaking, women need to do certain housework before they become pregnant, and it may even be heavy housework. This can not only exercise the body, but also allow them to experience a certain sense of accomplishment. After pregnancy, as the belly grows bigger day by day, women will exercise less and less. In the early stages of pregnancy, when there is no obvious change in the belly, the body should not be kept in a state of fatigue for too long, and heavy work should not be done.

Generally speaking, pregnant mothers are not recommended to do heavy work during pregnancy. The work should be mainly light. If you do heavy work frequently, it can easily cause miscarriage or injure your waist. Therefore, avoid heavy work if you can.

Can I do heavy work during pregnancy?

You should not overwork in the early stages of pregnancy as it will affect the development of the fetus. Doing heavy work in the early stages of pregnancy may cause miscarriage. If there are no symptoms, it is not a big problem and should not affect the fetus. It is recommended to do less heavy work as possible to avoid hurting the fetus. Generally speaking, it is forbidden to do heavy work during pregnancy, as this can easily lead to miscarriage.

It is best for an expectant mother not to stand for a long time when working, because she cannot work as long as normal women. Therefore, it is recommended that expectant mothers rest for about 10 minutes after working for 15-20 minutes.

Precautions during pregnancy

1. Prevent colds

The common cold and influenza are both respiratory infections caused by viruses. Although the common cold has little effect on the fetus, if the body temperature remains at around 39°C for a long time, it may cause fetal malformations. Especially influenza, not only can the virus cause embryo or fetal malformation, but the high fever and toxicity of the virus can also stimulate uterine contractions and cause miscarriage. Therefore, during the early stages of pregnancy, you should avoid going to public places, especially during the cold season, and avoid contact with people with colds in your daily life.

2. Don’t take medicine on your own

If you experience colds, headaches, insomnia, or other discomforts between 30 and 40 days of pregnancy, do not take medicine on your own. At this time, the embryonic tissue is most sensitive to drugs. The newly formed embryo is very tender and can easily be damaged by some drugs, causing deformity or miscarriage. When you have a fever, you must not use aspirin or other antipyretic drugs indiscriminately. You must see a doctor in time and tell the doctor the date of your pregnancy so that the doctor can choose a drug that is effective and will not harm the fetus.

3. Bathing time should not be too long

Morning sickness that occurs in early pregnancy usually makes the pregnant woman's body weak. If you take a bath for too long, your body may become too tired, causing dizziness and collapse in the bathroom; or you may catch a cold due to the cold. In particular, if you sit in the bath for too long, it will cause congestion in the uterus, stimulate the uterine muscles to contract, and induce miscarriage.

4. If morning sickness is severe, seek medical attention as soon as possible

A small number of pregnant women experience particularly strong reactions in the early stages of pregnancy, with nausea and vomiting to the point of being completely unable to eat. At this time, you should go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible, and hospitalization is usually required. Otherwise, not only will your own health be greatly affected, but the lack of nutrition and dehydration will also have serious consequences for the development of the fetus.

5. Don’t just stay at home if you have a cold

Although improper use of medication in early pregnancy can easily cause fetal tissue deformities, you should still see a doctor as soon as you catch a cold and don't just endure it at home. "Hiding one's illness and avoiding medical treatment" can easily aggravate the condition and delay treatment, which can also damage the embryonic tissue.
