Elderly childbearing refers to the pregnancy and childbearing of women over 35 years old. With the development of society and the change of people's lifestyle, the proportion of elderly childbearing is increasing. However, the impact of elderly childbearing on children has aroused widespread concern. This article will discuss the impact of the elderly childbearing on children from four aspects, namely, pre pregnancy preparation, health care during pregnancy, postpartum care and education accompanying, and propose corresponding protective measures.
1、 Preparation before pregnancy
1. Determine the physical examination plan: When elderly women plan to have a family, they should first have a comprehensive and detailed physical examination. Physical examination items include breast examination, B-ultrasound and endometrial thickness detection. Through physical examination, we can understand the physical condition of women and provide guidance for subsequent pregnancy health care.
2. Nutrition supplement: When preparing for pregnancy, elderly women should pay attention to a balanced diet and properly supplement nutrients. In particular, folic acid, vitamin D and iron are crucial to the development of the fetus and the health of the mother. If necessary, consult a doctor and make reasonable short-term supplements.
3. Healthy lifestyle: Older women should pay attention to maintaining a healthy lifestyle before pregnancy, including regular work and rest every day, avoiding unhealthy habits such as overeating and staying up late. In addition, skillful exercise and proper weight control are also very important.
2、 Health care during pregnancy
1. Regular antenatal examination: After the pregnancy of elderly women, prenatal examination should be carried out regularly. Prenatal examination can find and solve various problems during pregnancy in time to ensure the health of the fetus. It is recommended to have a prenatal examination at least once a month, including the size of the uterus, fetal development, blood pressure, blood sugar and other indicators of the pregnant woman.
2. Psychological adjustment: Older women are vulnerable to external pressure and worry during pregnancy, which is detrimental to the healthy development of the fetus. Therefore, pregnant women should learn to adjust their mental state correctly and try to keep a relaxed and happy mood. You can reduce stress by communicating with relatives and friends, attending yoga classes for pregnant women and other ways.
3. Diet conditioning: Older pregnant women should pay special attention to diet conditioning during pregnancy. It is recommended to take foods rich in protein, vitamins and minerals, such as fish, beans, fresh vegetables and fruits. Avoid overeating or eating unhealthy food, and try to choose a low salt and low sugar diet.
3、 Postpartum care
1. Balanced nutrition intake: Postpartum women need to restore their physical strength and spirit, so they should eat foods rich in protein, vitamins and minerals in a balanced way. At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure adequate water intake to promote milk secretion.
2. Active exercise: postpartum women should take some physical exercises properly, which will help to restore their physical functions. You can choose some relaxed aerobic exercises, such as walking, yoga, etc. But pay attention to avoid overwork and strenuous exercise, and avoid unnecessary harm to the body.
3. Mother infant parent-child interaction: parent-child interaction in postpartum families is very important for the healthy growth of children. Parents can establish deep emotional ties through close contact and warm communication with their children, which will help their children's emotional stability and development.
4、 Educational Companion
1. Provide a good learning environment: Older parents should provide a good learning environment for their children, including guiding them to arrange learning time reasonably, providing rich educational resources and actively participating in their children's school life. In order to cultivate children's learning ability and interest, and help them grow smoothly.
2. Pay attention to children's emotional needs: Older parents need to pay more attention to their children's emotional needs, communicate with and accompany their children as much as possible, and understand their inner world. When children face problems or setbacks, give them positive guidance and support to help them establish healthy interpersonal relationships.
3. Establish a harmonious family atmosphere: Older parents should pay attention to family harmony and provide a warm, stable and safe living environment for their children. Actively carry out parent-child activities with children, spend a good time together, strengthen parent-child relationship, and cultivate children's family values and values.
Summary
The impact of the elderly childbearing on children is a complex issue. From the four aspects of preparation before pregnancy, health care during pregnancy, postpartum care and education accompanying, we can take a series of effective measures to protect children's health.
