The Influence of Elderly Childbearing on Liu Qiangru's Health
Elderly childbearing refers to the pregnancy and childbearing of women in the age range of 35 years and above. With the development of society and the improvement of people's living standards, more and more women choose to marry late and have children late, leading to the phenomenon of elder childbearing more and more common. Liu Qiangru, as a 40 year old pregnant woman, what are the possible effects of her old childbirth on her health? This article will elaborate its influence from four aspects: physical health, mental health, fetal health and family support.
The effect of elderly childbearing on physical health
1. Increasing difficulty in reproduction: As women grow older, their ovarian function will gradually decline, and the quality and quantity of eggs will also gradually decrease, leading to decreased fertility and increased difficulty in pregnancy.
2. Increased risk of complications during pregnancy: Due to poor physical function, older pregnant women are more likely to have complications during pregnancy, such as gestational diabetes, hypertension during pregnancy, etc., which brings certain risks to pregnancy.
3. Increased delivery problems: Older pregnant women may have a longer delivery process, and problems such as abnormal fetal position and decreased postpartum uterine contractility are more common than younger pregnant women, increasing the risk of delivery.
The Influence of Elderly Childbearing on Mental Health
1. Increased anxiety and fear: Due to older age, the uncertainty of pregnancy and childcare and the burden of the body will bring more anxiety and fear, making pregnancy and childcare more tense and difficult.
2. Increased self pressure: For women who have given birth at an advanced age, they tend to face the wait-and-see and questioning of relatives and friends, increase their sense of responsibility for themselves and their families, and easily exert too much pressure on themselves.
3. Time pressure to bear childcare responsibilities: Older mothers often need to bear longer childcare responsibilities during the growth of their children, which will have a certain impact on their mental health and personal schedule.
The Influence of Old Childbearing on Fetal Health
1. Increased risk of birth defects: children born to older pregnant women are at a higher risk of suffering from some congenital diseases than young pregnant women, such as Down's syndrome, congenital heart disease, etc., which poses certain challenges to children's health.
2. Growth retardation: The growth and development of newborns in the uterus of elderly mothers may be relatively slow, and the growth and development retardation may occur after the baby is born.
3. Weak immunity: The intrauterine environment of the elderly parturient may have a certain impact on the development of the fetal immune system, making the fetal immune system weak and vulnerable to various infectious diseases.
The Influence of Older Childbearing on Family Support
1. Increased demand for family support: Older mothers need more family support and help in the process of childbirth and childcare, such as child care, housework sharing, etc., and have a relatively large demand for family resources and support.
2. Increased economic pressure: Older childbearing often requires more economic expenditure, such as medical expenses and education expenses, which brings certain economic pressure to families.
3. Remodeling of family roles: The elderly childbearing makes certain adjustments and remolding of family role distribution and family relations, and has a certain impact on the psychological and emotional relations of family members.
To sum up, the elderly childbearing has a certain impact on Liu Qiangru's physical health, mental health, fetal health and family support. Therefore, when deciding whether to give birth at an advanced age, we need to consider our own physical condition and family environment comprehensively, and make decisions under the guidance of doctors.
