Some women who want to have a baby are already older, and missing the optimal childbearing age can easily lead to some pregnancy complications. This not only affects the mother's health, but may also be detrimental to the good development of the fetus. Therefore, it is important to pay more attention to prenatal checkups after pregnancy. So, how long does it take to go to the hospital for a check-up during advanced pregnancy?
Pregnant women over the age of 35 are referred to as elderly pregnant women. Older pregnant women have an increased risk of developing chromosomal abnormalities in their embryos, as well as serious complications during pregnancy and childbirth. Therefore, sufficient attention should be given before, during, and after pregnancy. For example, targeted touch tests are needed before pregnancy, and after pregnancy, the density of prenatal examinations should be increased, and targeted prenatal examinations should also be performed.
If a woman is confirmed to be pregnant and of advanced age, she can arrange to go to the hospital for the first formal prenatal examination at 8 or 12 weeks of pregnancy to understand the mother's and embryo development status, and whether there are any unexpected situations. Basic routine examinations such as weight, blood pressure, heart function, liver and kidney function should also be conducted, and a comprehensive and systematic examination of the body should be carried out.
Subsequent regular prenatal check ups can be scheduled at 13-16 weeks, 17-20 weeks, 21-24 weeks, 25-28 weeks, 29-32 weeks, 33-35 weeks, and 36 weeks of pregnancy, respectively, until the due date. At this time, detailed prenatal check ups are also required.
