Fears of pregnancy, usually associated not with objective reality and myths spread around "interesting situation". Here are six of the most popular1. To give birth is always painful
Of course, birth is not the session wraps at the Spa at a five star hotel. But talking about the unbearable pain is not always justified. It's all in the threshold, which is individual for each woman. There is lucky he is low and therefore, the birth are light. And some people manage to get from the process fun, sometimes even to have an orgasm! The rest is not worth to panic. First, to prepare for the event, you will have nine months, during which you can learn in a special way to breathe and make the right "painkillers" pose. Secondly, the contractions hurt long - only a few hours before the birth of the child, and when approached quietly, it becomes much easier. Psychologists, for example, believe that unpleasant feelings arise when a woman, for some reason does not want to give birth - is afraid or not internally ready for change in my life. As a result, the body is a kind of stupor: toddler gives impetus to childbirth, the uterus takes it, her neck revealed. But from the unconscious of the mother should the opposing team. Delivery delayed, suffer all the mom and the kid. So, if you want everything went quickly and easily, in advance nastraivalsya an appropriate way.
2. After delivery, you can forget about the figure
There are such a lucky woman, whose figure after childbirth is getting better or not changing. But let's be Frank: these are a minority. Rest during pregnancy gain 5-10 pounds, and this is not going anywhere. But that "all excess" will stay with you forever, is a myth. Of course, a few centimeters in the waist by themselves will not dissolve, but immediately after birth to see them not worth it. To start the fight with hateful pounds can only after the cessation of breastfeeding. Usually 2-3 extra pounds go by themselves. But others expect "to live" forever. The solution can be diet and exercise.
3. Pregnant women are not recommended to get a haircut and hair dye
Well of course, but still need to wear rags and doesn't wash all nine months. After all, the advocates of the "eco-friendly pregnancy, supporting the above myth, assure that the use of any chemicals (whether it's shampoo, shower gel or cream for stretch marks) detrimental effect on the health of the unborn baby. Nail Polish, deodorant, makeup, and perfumes are also anathema because they contained harmful acids-alkalis.
Actually all modern cosmetics before you go on sale, undergo rigorous dermatological control, and for pregnant they are as safe as and for all other consumers. Every day on the street or even at home, we face a lot much more harmful substances. And the human body is able to reflect the negative factors. And pregnancy this system of internal self-defense not only breaks, but on the contrary, mobilizes and makes it more durable. Moreover, it should not be forgotten that the fetus has an additional protective barrier of the placenta. So to restore the festival during pregnancy can without fear.
One caveat: unfortunately, when colouring hair in "interesting position" is not always the desired result. The structure of the hair in the result of hormonal changes change, and using the usual shade, you can get a totally unexpected result. For example, instead of color "Nordic blonde" - chicken color.
The problem can also be exacerbated sense of smell: the aroma of your favorite perfume or hairspray instead of pleasant sensations will cause nausea. Visiting the beauty salon, in which specific smells are always a lot will also become problematic. But, on the other hand, no one bothers to pick a neutral-smelling cosmetics and to do them yourself or call specialists at home.
4. About sex have to forget
In the book of the eighteenth century "On the popular Russian obstetrics" describes the custom, according to which "the husband of a pregnant woman before the birth commits intercourse with her, pointing to the baby the way." Then the doctors believed that after sex easier reveals the cervix and the weakness of labor activity is not seen.
You won't believe, but the doctors of the XXI century, such method is not considered obsolete. Moreover, they argue: sex during pregnancy is not only not contraindicated, but, on the contrary, has a beneficial effect on the organism of mother and baby. Of course, if there are no specific contraindications. In other cases, sex is not recommended in the first two and the last months of pregnancy. In addition, restrictions imposed on those days when he was supposed to happen menstruation, if not pregnancy. During this period, the risk of miscarriage increases slightly, because the woman's body is accustomed to cyclic changes and the rejection of the functional layer of the uterus. The rest of the time to get pleasure from intimacy nobody forbids. Besides, most of the women in "interesting position" truly awakened libido and during pregnancy, many are experiencing the first orgasm.
If, due to the widespread myth of the mother is afraid to harm the child and is trying to deal with their own desires, nervous and angry, it is much more harmful to the fetus. So no limits! But only if the desire to have sex really is, and it is not imposed on a husband or not caused by a desire to please the partner. Nearly 35% of women libido during pregnancy is sharply reduced or disappears altogether. This change sexuality unpleasant surprises and the woman, and her husband, but fear not: libido, as a rule, fully restored shortly after the birth of the child.
5. I'm cranky tantrum with a perverted taste
All pregnant women be picky about food - it's true. There are many anecdotes about how the mothers to absorb all sorts of types of chalk, clay and other "building materials". But, despite the fact that preferences of pregnant women sometimes have bizarre, this is not a whim on the part of women. The problem is hormonal changes. It affects the taste buds of the woman, forcing her to search for new sensations.
There is also a theory that the signals from the body, according to what the woman is missing and what should be discarded. For example, if the mother, before drinking liters of coffee, now sick of the smell, then it may well be that's the way the body wants to insure the mother and child from an overabundance of certain substances. Appeared unstoppable craving for fruit? Most likely not enough carbohydrates. Well, if you are craving ice cream possible, so the body compensates for the lack of milk proteins.
Moreover, it should not be forgotten that during pregnancy, the changing flora of the stomach and intestines, sometimes heartburn and nausea. That is why the mother and begins to drink hitherto unloved yogurt or milk. And addiction to chalk, clay and other "materials" often talk about specific diseases, such as anemia.
First, ultrasonic study is not to determine the sex of the child, and to control the proper development of the fetus and pregnancy. Secondly, ultrasound is recognized as the safest method of radiodiagnostics, and all the rumors about his alleged damage are not completely no scientifically sound basis.
As for the sex determination of the unborn child, then our grandmothers believed - if during pregnancy the abdomen was covered volosiki it would be a boy. Don't suspecting they built a clear logical link: active hair growth on the body due to increased levels of male hormones in the body. And where them to take, as not all of the fruit-boy? But it's not. The fact that the excess of male hormones characteristic for all pregnant women.
Our moms were wondering on "boy-girl" differently. It was considered, if the abdomen is broad and is high - it's a girl, if low and as if pushed forward - boy. But, alas, my mother was wrong not less than grandmothers. The high location of the stomach may talk about the first pregnancy or about excellent physical shape women. Another objective explanation. The fragile women belly protrudes because the child simply has nowhere to go. It can also be a sign that the fruit is sideways.
And yet. Planning pregnancy, remember: to predict the sex of a child is impossible. And will not help you any special date or time of conception, nor power, nor any sorcerers-psychics. The sex of the child is the genetic lottery. And the chances to conceive a girl or boy is always 50: 50.
Expert opinion
Valery Sanin, gynecologist, doctor of the highest qualification category:
The myths are born from simple ignorance. Very often women, rather than to consult a doctor, listen to girlfriends-friends-colleagues and believe their word for it, not even bothering to check the information. For example, one girl said to another that pregnancy without morning sickness does not happen. And unhappy after a conversation he really began, though, before that everything was fine. Then the doctors have a lot of effort to spend on "suggestion to the contrary".
Meet and quite ridiculous myths. For example, that during pregnancy it is impossible to knit or sew - supposedly the child will be hardcoded path in this world. It is hard to believe that someone can think in the XXI century. The main thing is that, doing needlework, the mother was sitting in a comfortable position, and often had to take breaks in easy physical exercise (this is necessary to avoid stagnation of blood in the pelvic organs).
Another mythical masterpiece: pregnant you cannot raise your hands - the child becomes entangled in the umbilical cord. But this defect is only due to the large length of the umbilical cord, which is determined genetically. So the actions of women is unable to influence. My advice: do not listen to the professionals and don't hesitate to ask questions to the doctors.
