How can pregnant women prevent neonatal jaundice? Four points to prevent neonatal jaundice

Many babies may have physiological jaundice right after birth, and then as time goes by, the jaundice can gradually weaken or even disappear. If pregnant women can do some things during pregnancy, it will help prevent neonatal jaundice. For example, if you pay attention to four aspects such as diet, you can reduce the occurrence of neonatal jaundice.

Neonatal jaundice is something that most babies may experience after birth. Neonatal jaundice can be prevented to a certain extent. Pregnant women can prevent neonatal jaundice from four aspects during pregnancy. Many women do not know exactly what to do. Below we will give you relevant introductions from four aspects.

First, you should eat properly during pregnancy.

The reason for neonatal jaundice is that the expectant mother's body is invaded by damp heat during pregnancy, which affects the fetus and causes fetal jaundice after birth, which is the condition of neonatal jaundice. In order to reduce the invasion of damp heat by expectant mothers, they should pay attention to adjusting their diet in daily life, eat less or no raw, cold, greasy, spicy and irritating food, and should also be careful not to be too hungry or too full at each meal to reduce damage to the spleen and stomach.

Second, expectant mothers who have given birth to fetal jaundice can take some Chinese medicine.

If a woman has given birth to a baby with fetal jaundice before, she can take preventive measures early when she becomes pregnant again. Ask a professional doctor to prescribe some Chinese medicine that is harmless to the baby. Adjusting the body can also help reduce the occurrence of neonatal jaundice.

Third, pay close attention to your baby's condition.

After a baby is born, parents should pay close attention to observe the baby's physical condition, to see if the skin on the baby's face and limbs is yellow, and to see if the baby is listless, does not want to feed, has convulsions in the limbs, etc. If there are any abnormalities, the baby should be sought for medical attention as soon as possible.

Fourth, take good care of your baby.

After a newborn is born, you should pay attention to taking good care of the baby's skin, especially the navel and buttocks, to prevent damage and infection. These situations may also lead to the occurrence of neonatal jaundice.

The incidence of neonatal jaundice is relatively high, but some preventive measures can be taken to a certain extent to reduce the occurrence of this condition. Expectant mothers should pay attention to maintaining a scientific and reasonable diet. Especially for mothers who have given birth to babies with neonatal jaundice in the past, they can take Chinese medicine in advance for prevention. The condition should not be ignored after the baby is born, and the baby's physical condition should be closely observed.
