The female body during pregnancy is very sensitive to external manifestations. If a woman was allergic to an interesting position, then there is a great risk that this problem will worsen during gestation.
If the expectant mother does nothing to protect herself from allergic irritants, then there is a risk that the allergy will affect the fetus. It is worth knowing that the child will not immediately develop allergies after the appearance of rashes in the mother, since the placenta protects him. However, the future baby feels the influence on himself, since in general the state of the mother changes.
Drugs
Pharmacies offer a wide range of drugs for allergies, but almost all of them affect the blood supply to the fetus. So, for example, due to their fault, there is often a decrease in uteroplacental blood flow. For this reason, the safest methods of treatment should be resorted to. First of all, you need to consult your doctor. Antiallergic drug should be prescribed only by him.
You should not rely on your experience and use remedies that worked well before pregnancy. It should also be remembered that most antiallergenic drugs are dangerous to the fetus. So, for example, "Diphenhydramine" causes contraction of the uterus. For this reason, it should not be taken in doses greater than 50 mg. The popular drug "Terfenadine" leads to weight loss in the newborn, and "Astemizole" is toxic to the fetus. The use of such drugs as "Claritin", "Suprastin", "Feksadin" and "Cetirizin" is allowed, but only when treatment is extremely necessary.
Folk remedies
For the treatment of allergies, it is better to use folk remedies. They will not harm the fetus and do their job well. Celery juice will help with hives, which should be squeezed out of a fresh root. It is recommended to take 2 ml three times a day half an hour before meals.
For allergic dermatitis, it is necessary to prepare a decoction of oak bark. Compresses and washings should be done with it. Also, with this type of allergy, rosehip helps well. You can make compresses from napkins, which are first soaked in its oil extract. Soaking with apple cider vinegar is helpful for allergic eczema. Fresh birch sap also copes well with it. Alternatively, you can use a cabbage leaf. It should be scalded until softened, and then applied to the sore spot for several days.
The above means give a good result, but only if it is possible to identify the allergen and remove it. For this reason, it is necessary to immediately react and eliminate possible allergens, otherwise the fetus will be harmed.
