3. Pressure Four: Panic

Because mothers are often pregnant for the first time, they lack a correct understanding and scientific understanding of pregnancy, so it is inevitable that they will be worried, worried about their unhealthy health, and worried that the fetus will not develop normally. The more thinking, the more likely to panic. It is necessary to go to the hospital for pregnancy test on time, consult a doctor to understand the health of yourself and the fetus, and avoid cranky thoughts.

4. Pressure Five: Excessive Reliance

After some people get pregnant, their feelings will become very fragile, they are inseparable from their husbands mentally and psychologically, and they have a sense of dependence on them. The wife hopes that her husband can always be by her side to share happiness and share worries. During pregnancy, I hope my husband can focus on me more than before, always care about me, and take care of me everywhere. As a result, there is a mentality of over-reliance on the husband. It is normal to have such a mentality during pregnancy. The husband should try his best to be considerate of the mothers and reduce their pressure.

5. Stress Six: Depression

Negative emotions during pregnancy are a kind of pressure for oneself, and are not good for the health of the fetus. If the melancholy mood of frowning all day long will cause insomnia, anorexia, sexual dysfunction and autonomic disorders of the expectant mother, it is extremely unfavorable to the growth of the fetus.
