Many expectant mothers, especially those preparing for the appearance of their first child, suffer from excessive suspiciousness, listening to changes in their bodies with growing anxiety and anxiety.
Instructions
Step 1
Despite the unstable psycho-emotional background that often accompanies pregnancy, expectant mothers should try to remain calm while waiting for the baby - after all, all experiences, causing a response in their body, can affect the child. It is important to visit doctors regularly, and in the presence of serious chronic diseases or injuries, contact the right specialists in a timely manner in order to have an idea of your health. Only doctors can determine how the pregnancy is proceeding, so it is worth following all the prescriptions and passing the appropriate examinations and tests on time.
Step 2
To combat growing anxiety, you first need to flesh it out. What can the expectant mother be afraid of? For example, any problems in the development of the baby. In order to determine how the development and growth of a child in the mother's womb is going on, doctors use many types of research: laboratory tests, gynecological history, ultrasound and many others. At the same time, the health of some patients is far from ideal, and chronic diseases can be exacerbated during pregnancy. Instead of worrying in advance and tormenting yourself in vain, you should tell the doctor in charge of the pregnancy in advance about all such nuances. Thus, you can completely protect yourself and the child, and the doctor will be able to track one or another symptom in time, indicating problems in the body of the expectant mother, and also prescribe additional tests.
Step 3
It happens that some doctors do not consider it necessary to acquaint their patients with the test results. Expectant mothers, who may be very suspicious, can be embarrassed or upset. If the gynecologist, despite requests, does not devote enough time to convince the pregnant woman that she is doing well, you can change the doctor. This procedure is very simple - you just need to contact the head of the department, explain your claims and choose another specialist. In order to find a doctor who can calm the expectant mother by explaining to her the essence of what is happening in her body, you can use different methods - to study reviews about a particular clinic on the Internet, or, for example, contact directly your acquaintances who have already given birth so that they can advise a suitable candidate.
Step 4
Communication with close friends and relatives who already have children can be very important. By sharing her experiences, a woman can compare her condition, making sure that everything is going as it should. Often, those who are expecting the birth of their first child need psychological support. Friends or family members can also provide advice, share worries, and calm down. It happens that some features of pregnancy can be inherited - by asking the future grandmother, a woman can not only learn a lot and get answers to a number of questions, but also make sure that everything is going well.
Step 5
Recently, the number of thematic communities has been growing, where pregnant women can consult, ask a question or just chat on topics of interest to them related to the early replenishment of the family. According to Internet users, such communication can help maintain composure in the most difficult moments, as well as prepare for childbirth. And some women even find real friends with children of the same age, with whom later it is no less interesting to communicate on a variety of issues related to the younger generation.
