Many pregnant women control blood sugar during pregnancy because they are worried about the occurrence of gestational diabetes.However, there are also some pregnant women who have the opposite distress. Their blood sugar is not high, but it is very low.Some pregnant women think that low blood sugar is a good thing. It is not necessary to control the diet, and there will be no harm to the fetus. Is this really the case?
Gao Xueqing, a maternal and gynecologist at Chongqing Anqier Maternal and Gynecology Hospital, reminded that during pregnancy, if pregnant women frequently have hypoglycemia, it will also affect the fetus.Hypoglycemia can lead to symptoms such as sweating, accelerated heartbeat, and weakness of pregnant women. In severe cases, it may also lead to faint pregnant women.Once pregnant women have a syncope, the fetus may be hypoxic, which is not good for the fetal brain development, which will affect the fetal intelligence.
Regularly detect blood sugar changes
Pregnant women with hypoglycemia should not be too anxious. Occasionally, hypoglycemia has little effect on the fetus. As long as the pregnant woman does not have a syncope, and the blood sugar needs in time in time, the fetus is not dangerous.However, hypoglycemia pregnant women must prevent the occurrence of hypoglycemia, and they must regularly detect their blood sugar changes regularly.
Diet control
When it comes to the treatment and prevention of hypoglycemia, just like hyperglycemia pregnant women, we need to control the diet first.Pregnant women with hypoglycemia should eat more vegetables, fruits, dried fruits, dairy products, etc., but also eat more high -fiber food. The high -fiber diet can help stabilize blood sugar concentration.When blood sugar decreases, fiber and protein foods can be mixed with food.
Pregnant women must eat on time, especially breakfast must be eaten on time.Some pregnant mothers, because of pregnancy, affect appetite, choose not to eat breakfast. This is wrong and can easily lead to hypoglycemia.Pregnant mothers can eat less and eat 5 or 6 meals a day, which can ensure nutrition and prevent pregnancy.
In addition, pregnant women will digest fast during pregnancy. Pregnant mothers with hypoglycemia can carry some foods, fruits and other foods with them, and eat a little when they are hungry to avoid hypoglycemia.The most important thing is to keep glucose.Pregnant women need to prepare a few pieces of sugar with them, and prepare some glucose water in the office or home. If hypoglycemia symptoms suddenly occur, you can eat sugar or drink glucose water. It is the fastest to relieve hypoglycemia in glucose water.(Supply of Chongqing Anqier Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital)
