How to make up for less amniotic fluid in pregnant women?
1. Take a lot of water.
When pregnant women have little amniotic fluid, they can increase amniotic fluid by drinking plenty of water. Drinking 2000ml of water in two hours can increase the amount of amniotic fluid in a short time, but after a period of time, the amount of amniotic fluid will decrease and cannot last for a long time. Pregnant women should usually drink more nutritious drinks such as soy milk, milk and fruit juice, and there should be no less soup in three meals a day. If pregnant women need to increase amniotic fluid in a short time, they can also drink soybean milk 1000ml, milk 500ml and water 1500ml in two hours, but it will fail after the same period of time.
Note: pregnant women with less amniotic fluid should eat less diuretic foods such as watermelon and wax gourd to avoid serious water loss.
2. Transfusion and oxygenation
When the situation of oligohydramnios in pregnant women is serious, infusion should be taken immediately to increase amniotic fluid rapidly, and oxygen should be supplemented immediately at the same time, which can also increase the amount of amniotic fluid and prevent the fetus in the abdomen from being deprived of oxygen because of oligohydramnios.
Step 3 replenish blood
Many pregnant women have insufficient amniotic fluid because of their own blood volume. Because the maternal blood is insufficient, it will affect the fetal blood volume, which will indirectly affect the amniotic fluid circulation and lead to amniotic fluid deficiency. Therefore, it is very important for pregnant women to replenish blood, and they can eat more iron-rich foods, such as pork liver, kelp, black fungus, beef, celery, soybeans and cherries.
What should pregnant women do with less amniotic fluid?
The treatment of oligohydramnios should first find out the cause. If there is oligohydramnios, the fetus has no abnormality after examination, and the pregnant woman has no serious complications, the amount of amniotic fluid can be increased by drinking water quickly under the guidance of the doctor. Pregnant women who are not in labor at full term and lack amniotic fluid can drink 2000 ml (about 4 bowls of water) within 2 hours. If they still can't meet the requirements, the above methods can be repeated. This method is safe, effective, simple and easy, and has no side effects. It can be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.
What is amniotic fluid?
The so-called amniotic fluid refers to the fluid in the amniotic cavity of the uterus during pregnancy. In the whole pregnancy process, it is an indispensable and important component to maintain fetal life. At different stages of fetal development, the source of amniotic fluid is also different. In the first trimester of pregnancy, amniotic fluid mainly comes from the plasma components of embryos. Later, as the organs of the embryo began to mature and develop, other organs, such as fetal urine, respiratory system, gastrointestinal tract, umbilical cord, placental surface, etc., also became the source of amniotic fluid.
Does oligohydramnios affect normal delivery?
If the pregnancy is full-term and the amniotic fluid is less, the pregnancy should be terminated in time. After admission, the doctor should make clear the cause of oligohydramnios, especially to rule out the existence of fetal malformation and evaluate whether it can be delivered smoothly. If fetal malformation is ruled out, uterine contractions can be induced by stimulating the nipple first, and the fetal heart rate can be monitored at the same time, so as to understand the fetal reserve capacity according to whether the fetal heart rate slows down during uterine contraction. If there is no obvious deceleration of fetal heart rate, you can choose to give birth naturally, and closely observe the progress of fetal heart rate and labor process during labor. If there is any abnormality, you should do cesarean section in time.
