As the number of days pregnant increases, the expectant mother's belly will also become bigger and bigger. In late pregnancy, through examination, the baby's head and limbs can be clearly observed. Some pregnant women may experience a situation where their baby's limbs are not long enough, and they are very concerned. They want to know how likely it is that the fetus's limbs are short and deformed?
A fetus with short limbs may have a certain degree of malformation, but if it is only slightly short, it is generally considered not a malformation and may be due to slow growth or genetic dwarfism. Pregnant women can undergo four-dimensional color ultrasound for re examination. If the fetal development is normal, then pregnant women do not need to worry. Some fetuses may have genetic factors, meaning that both parents are shorter, resulting in slightly shorter limbs. In addition, as the fetus develops, its limbs will also grow again.
If the fetal limbs are found to be short during the prenatal examination, pregnant women do not need to worry too much. After re examination, the fetal development is normal. Why does the re examination suddenly become normal? Pregnant women can adjust their diet by eating nutritious foods to help the fetus absorb comprehensive nutrients and promote growth. Especially calcium element must be supplemented reasonably, and in addition, vitamin D should be supplemented together to promote calcium absorption.
In addition, pregnant women should pay attention to rest well, not stay up late, and not put too much pressure on themselves. If there are always various worries and prolonged anxiety during pregnancy, it is actually detrimental to the healthy growth of the fetus.
