Sex at 6 week of pregnancy

Most women are wondering if sex is possible in this condition, especially when the 6th week of pregnancy begins and the woman already knows exactly what she is.

Specialists, if the future mother feels well, there is no threat of termination of pregnancy, blood discharge, soreness in the lower abdomen, do not see harm in having sex in the first weeks of pregnancy. Limit sex is when a woman previously had problems with bearing a child (spontaneous miscarriages).

Nutrition at the 6th week of pregnancy

6th week of pregnancy can be the beginning of weight gain. In women who do not experience severe toxicosis, an increase in weight from 1 to 3 kilograms is usually observed during the first three months of pregnancy.

The mistake of many pregnant women is the opinion that now it is extremely important to eat for two. The woman's body does not require any extra calories in the first three months of pregnancy. After 12 weeks of pregnancy, 300 calories are needed additionally, which, in fact, is not at all much. Eating a pregnant woman should include only healthy and healthy food: vegetables, fruits, nuts, dairy products, etc. Healthy food will help your body get all vitamins and trace elements that are necessary in this crucial period. High fiber content in foods will help to solve the problem with constipation, from which pregnant women often suffer. In addition, cellulose gives a feeling of satiety for a longer time, which will contribute to the proper functioning of the digestive system.

Vitamins at the 6th week of pregnancy

Vitamins are very important for pregnant women. First of all, the 6th week of pregnancy forms vital organs and systems, so the lack of nutrients in the maternal organism can adversely affect the development of the child. It is also important for the woman herself to get enough vitamins and minerals during this period, as this will help reduce the unpleasant symptoms of toxicosis, prevent problems with teeth, hair, skin, etc. Now many manufacturers produce vitamins for pregnant women. In general, all vitamins are more or less the same composition. The selection of vitamins should be done taking into account the analysis, the condition of the woman.

Proper nutrition (greens, lots of vegetables, fruits mostly in raw form, foods containing fiber, etc.) relieve a woman from the need to consume daily chemical vitamins.

Flight at 6th week of pregnancy

At present, there is no accurate information that early pregnancy can adversely affect the health of a future mother or fetus, provided that pregnancy is normal. For many women, there is excitement about this (especially if it is not possible to cancel the flight). Low atmospheric pressure and humidity - all this causes a number of questions and fear of a woman.

If the 6th week of pregnancy passes without complications, then there will be no harm from a single flight for the future baby, and confirmation that the flight can contribute to the fading of pregnancy or to provoke miscarriage is not.

Irregular flights during the first weeks of pregnancy do not put the life of the embryo in the womb at significant risk. The most safe time for flights is pregnancy up to 37 weeks (up to 34 weeks if the pregnancy is multiple or occurs with complications). From the 37th week the probability of the onset of labor is significantly increased, in this case the flight can contribute to the beginning of labor in a woman. Many airlines do not take pregnant women on such long terms.

If you are going to fly, you need to know that in most cases urgent medical assistance may be needed in the first and third trimester.

Smoking at 6 weeks gestation

Smoking is especially dangerous in the early stages of pregnancy. In the first weeks, until a woman assumes that she is in a position, her lifestyle does not have a significant effect on the developing embryo. But 6th week of pregnancy is the period when the fetus is already connected to the mother and receives nutrients from her body. At this time, the formation of all vital organs and systems of the future little man begins. After one puff, the fruit receives a large amount of nicotine, benzapyrene, carbon monoxide, which negatively affects its development. For example, from nicotine, a child in the womb does not receive oxygen, as a result, he literally chokes. In this regard, the vast majority of children whose mothers smoked were born with low body weight, they were more painful and less developed than peers.

In the first months of pregnancy, mother's smoking can provoke a miscarriage. The placenta does not prevent the penetration of all toxic substances that enter the mother's blood during smoking. In this case, the negative effect of tobacco smoke also affects the placenta - it reduces the ability to transport various substances to the fetus.

Smoking in the first weeks of pregnancy can be one of the reasons for the birth of a child with such pathologies as the wolf mouth, hare lip. Experts attribute this fact to the fact that at 6-8 weeks, the formation of the palate occurs.

Many women believe that for the child is extremely harmful to smoking cessation, because he gets used to the substances entering the blood of the mother when smoking and he begins to need them. This is a complete fallacy, the child can not get used to the fact that he kills and maims, so this opinion of the smoking mother is more complacency than the truth.

Alcohol at the 6th week of pregnancy

At the beginning of pregnancy, alcohol adversely affects the development of the baby in the womb. More than once it was said that the 6th week of pregnancy is one of the most responsible in the development of vital systems and organs, at this time the woman should be as much as possible responsible for the health of her stillborn child. At week 6, the slightest negative external factor can affect the normal development of the embryo, and alcohol is the most poisonous and dangerous in the period of gestation. The use of alcohol in the first weeks of pregnancy is one of the causes of various malformations, abnormalities, pathologies in the child. Drinking alcohol in large doses can lead to miscarriage.
