In the cold winter, it is a pleasant thing to keep warm by the stove. Some pregnant women often sit by the stove to keep warm because they are prone to experiencing chills and coldness. However, sometimes there are concerns that it may have adverse effects on pregnancy. So, what happens when pregnant women often sit by the fireplace?
1. Pregnant women often keep warm by the fireplace in winter, which generally does not affect their health during pregnancy. As long as there is a certain safe distance from the stove and the abdomen is not overheated, it will not affect the healthy development of the fetus. However, it should be noted that when leaving the stove, due to the large temperature difference, there is a possibility of catching a cold or flu due to sudden changes in temperature. Therefore, this is one of the issues that pregnant women who use the stove for heating need to pay attention to.
2. Pay attention to safety issues when using a fireplace for heating in winter. Because burning coal in a furnace can produce harmful gases and easily pollute the air, it is important to pay attention to the sealing of the chimney and ensure proper indoor air circulation to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning caused by the furnace being too sealed in the room. Otherwise, it will seriously affect the physical health of pregnant women and also affect the health of the fetus and baby.
3. In addition, if there are pregnant women staying at home for winter heating, it is recommended not to use coal fired stoves. It is suggested to use electric heaters or thermal air conditioners for heating. By using electric heating, not only can the temperature be regulated, but the indoor temperature is also relatively uniform, and the safety is relatively higher.
