Many pregnant women attach great importance to their physical condition. Although they are very careful, sometimes there may still be some abnormal situations, which are quite common and difficult to avoid. For example, if a pregnant woman catches a cold or coughs, many pregnant women may worry that this situation will affect the fetus. So, will a pregnant woman's cold and cough affect the fetus?
Pregnant women with colds and coughs need to determine the specific timing. If the cold and cough occur in the early stages of pregnancy, it depends on the cause of the cold. If it is a common cold and cough without viral infection, the impact on the fetus is minimal. Attention should be paid to the flu here, as there is a flu virus. If pregnant women catch a cold or cough and do not handle it in a timely manner, the virus is likely to affect embryo development and increase the risk of accidents such as miscarriage.
In mid pregnancy, the impact of maternal colds and coughs on the fetus is relatively small because the fetus has already developed and formed a large amount, so the impact will be minimal. However, pregnant women should not underestimate the occurrence of colds and coughs, and those who need treatment must actively seek treatment.
In the late stages of pregnancy, the impact of colds and coughs on pregnant women is also minimal. After all, the fetus is now approaching maturity and has developed some resistance. In addition, many important organs of the fetus have already developed, so the impact of colds and coughs on pregnant women is minimal at this time. However, if pregnant women experience colds and coughs, they still need to actively deal with them.
