It is generally accepted that early pregnancy (at the age of 12-17) occurs in asocial families, where the level of finance and education is low. However, this is a common mistake. Another thing is that for adolescents in the period of youthful maximalism and overestimated ambitions, an unexpected pregnancy appears to be a kind of global catastrophe. In order not to break the already fragile adolescent organism, adults and children need to work together.
It is necessary
- - three pregnancy tests
- - vitamin and mineral complexes
- - a book about healthy eating
- - comfortable shoes and clothes
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, don't panic, scold your child, and don't look for the culprit. Conflict will only make matters worse. You should wait until all parties have calmed down, and then sit down and talk. It is also recommended to calmly find out who the father of the child is, how old he is and whether he can share the burden of responsibility. A difficult decision lies ahead: to give birth or not? Abortion and childbirth are equally dangerous for an immature organism. The first abortion can negate the possibility of further motherhood, and childbirth threatens internal ruptures and blood loss. After confirming pregnancy (at least 3 tests showed a positive result), you should immediately consult a gynecologist.
Step 2
In the case of a decision to keep the child, the girl will have to forget about walks until late and fast food snacks. To bear a healthy child and avoid many complications of early pregnancy (miscarriages, placental insufficiency, etc.), you must adhere to the doctor's recommendations, proper nutrition, sleep and wakefulness. Parents should conduct a conversation about the upcoming changes in the life of a teenager on their own, or use the help of a psychologist. Physical changes during pregnancy (weight gain, leg swelling, etc.) can scare the girl. Constant moral support from loved ones will relieve stress and increase the level of psychological preparedness. More often say the phrases: "You are great!", "We can handle it!", "We love you so much!" etc.
Step 3
The baby in the stomach and the mother herself are actively growing, so it is necessary to replenish the adolescent's diet with vitamins and microelements, in particular folic acid, calcium and potassium. Early pregnancy is fraught with severe toxicosis and fainting. Take care of quiet walks in the fresh air, increase the level of hemoglobin with iron supplements. Sour juices, herbal teas (with mint, currant leaves or strawberries) and light vegetable soups based on broccoli and beans will help ease the unpleasant sensations of toxicosis. Food should be taken in small portions every 2, 5 - 3 hours. Mixing different ingredients will only increase nausea, so it is recommended to eat separately: do not combine meat and cereals, do not consume more than three ingredients at one meal.
Step 4
Since teenage girls are preoccupied with their appearance, purchase comfortable, stylish maternity clothes and shoes for increased comfort. If you could not find a size in special salons for expectant mothers, buy regular clothes 2 sizes larger. Shoes with heels are possible if the heel is stable and its height does not exceed 4 cm. The teenager's room must also undergo serious changes. It should be issued taking into account the residence of the future baby.
Step 5
To avoid rumors and bullying from classmates, the learning activity of a teenager should be transferred to the home. Talk to the principal and teachers about tutoring. With the consent of the teachers, you can use the online learning method. However, long-term sitting at the computer for pregnant women is strictly contraindicated. Better to read textbooks on a park bench. It is also possible to ask the school administration to postpone the educational process for a year.
Step 6
It is not pregnancy itself that causes the greatest fear, but childbirth. Choose a suitable maternity hospital together, discuss delivery options, agree with the staff about the possibility of your presence at the birth. Be prepared to be supportive in caring for your newborn. Maternal instinct in adolescents is poorly expressed, so you will have to take on many worries.
