Preterm labour
A delivery that occurs before 37 weeks is termed preterm labor. Preterm delivery is the leading cause of death in neonates and also in the baby’s first 28 days of life. Some babies may have health issues even after the 28 days.
Ectopic pregnancy
In a normal pregnancy, the egg after fertilization with the sperm gets implanted in the wall of the uterus. The uterus becomes the home for the fertilized egg to develop into a fetus over the next nine months. But in some women, the fertilized egg instead of getting implanted in the wall of the uterus may get implanted in one of the fallopian tubes which connect the ovary to the uterus. It may also get implanted on the ovaries, outside the uterus. This is then called Ectopic pregnancy. So an ectopic or tubal pregnancy is a pregnancy that develops outside the uterus.
High Blood pressure during Pregnancy
Pre-eclampsia happens in pregnant women usually after 20 weeks of gestation. So what is Pre-Eclampsia? Pre-Eclampsia is the increased blood pressure and occurrence of protein in the urine, during pregnancy for the first time. Various organs of the mother can also be injured, like the eye, liver, Kidney, and brain. While some women may not show any symptoms, there may be some women who could show a few symptoms.
Kick counts during pregnancy
Kick Counts -
Many first-time moms, may not feel the baby kicks, till their pregnancy is close to 25 weeks. But second or third-time moms may feel their baby kick by 18 weeks itself, as they already have felt it in the earlier pregnancies and know what to expect. Many of my viewers have asked the question - How do you I know if my baby is moving enough? Is there a way we can monitor the growth of the baby ourselves?
Cesarean section - Pros and Cons
Babies can be born naturally by vaginal birth or in some cases where the natural birth is not possible for reasons relating to the risk associated with the life of the mother or baby, the doctor may have to resort to Cesarean section. Once a rarely performed procedure, only for obstetric emergencies, C-section today is performed more commonly.
Coffee during Pregnancy
Should I drink coffee during pregnancy?
Some doctors suggest you don’t drink any caffeine during pregnancy and others advise limited consumption. Caffeine is a stimulant, so it increases your blood pressure and heart rate, which is not recommended during pregnancy. Caffeine use can also lead to dehydration, so be sure to drink plenty of water.
Hypothyroidism during pregnancy
Routine antenatal care is very important to reduce maternal and fetal complications. Hypothyroidism can adversely affect the health of the baby and the mother if not identified and treated before and during pregnancy. It is very important that a woman is screened for thyroid deficiencies ideally while she is planning to get pregnant. The baby is completely dependent on the maternal thyroid hormones especially during the first three months of pregnancy. So this may put an additional strain on the mother and could lead to further deficiency if not identified and corrected promptly.
