Cough in the 2nd trimester of pregnancy: the more dangerous and how to treat

The second trimester is considered the quietest period of pregnancy. However, its course can cloud the cough. The emergence of this unpleasant symptom of many diseases should be a reason for reasonable concern and immediate treatment in the hospital. The consequences of untimely or independent treatment can have a very negative impact on the health of the mother and child.

Causes of cough danger during the 2nd trimester of pregnancy

The appearance of cough during pregnancy in the 2nd trimester is a signal about the onset of the course of various diseases and the impact of pathological factors that exert additional stress on the immunity of a pregnant woman and cause irreparable harm to the health of the fetus and future mother:

• Infections of the respiratory and nasopharyngeal organs.
• Pneumonia.
• Bronchitis.
• Pertussis.
• Corey.
• Tonsillitis.
• Nervous stress.
• Allergies.
• Gastric disorders.
• Smoking.

Cough during pregnancy in the 2nd trimester can be dry, wet, permanent, short-term. He is quite a dangerous self-provocateur of various pathologies in women waiting for a child.

Cough at the 14th week of pregnancy

Strong paroxysmal cough at the 14-15th week of wearing a fetus threatens to increase the tone of the uterus, which is a strong provoking factor in the occurrence of her spasms. This phenomenon has a very negative impact on the health of a pregnant woman and can result in miscarriage.

Spasms lead to impaired blood supply to the fetus, the impossibility of sufficient supply of nutrients. This is fraught with pathological changes in the endocrine system of the future baby, as well as the inferior development of its internal organs, the laying of which is not yet completed.

Cough at 16 weeks gestation

Completion of the formation of the placenta, acting as a protective barrier against various negative factors, occurs by week 16. The danger of a reflex act is that as a result of the delay of various infections that cause it, fetoplacental insufficiency, which makes it difficult to supply oxygen and nutrients to the future the kid.

During this period, the nervous system of the fetus develops actively, its bone tissue - and they suffer in the first place. Also, from lack of nutrition, a child risks being born prematurely or having a reduced weight.

Cough in the 18th week of pregnancy

Strong attacks of cough during this period can provoke an increase in arterial and intra-abdominal pressure. Women begin to feel the baby's first movements. In a complex, such factors are extremely uncomfortable for expectant mothers. They can cause premature termination of pregnancy.

At week 18, eggs are formed for girls. A strong jerky reflex act and a cold can cause irreparable damage, threatening infertility in the future.

Cough in the 20th week of pregnancy

On the 6th month of wearing a child, reflex attacks can cause strong strains of the uterine muscles and subsequent spontaneous bleeding. Especially women at risk of having placenta previa, and also its location is too low.

From 20 to 27 weeks, the fetus is already quite active and developed so that the uterus begins to prepare for childbirth, contracting and relaxing. Prolonged cough during pregnancy can intensify and intensify such "fights", causing a threat of termination of pregnancy.

How to treat a cough during pregnancy in the 2nd trimester

Because of the decrease in immunity during pregnancy, a woman in the position should never be pulled with a cough treatment. Determine what causes it, whether it represents a danger to the fetus, only a doctor can.

The main rule of treatment of pregnant women in the second trimester is the safety of the future child. There are two goals in the doctor's actions.

• Relief of the symptom.
• Creating conditions for the complete elimination of the cause that caused it.

If the reflex act is due to a cold or infection, then in no case should you take antiviral medications and antibiotics on your own, thinking that they are harmless.

On the 2nd trimester of pregnancy, doctors recommend treating this ailment with the help of traditional medicine. If non-traditional methods do not bring relief, then the doctor prescribes drugs containing herbs. They do not cause pathologies in the unborn child, but they are still medicines, so they can not be taken uncontrollably.

The most effective and safe methods of treatment are those that directly affect the throat, moisturizing the mucous membrane and facilitating sputum evacuation:

• Inhalations.
• Compresses.
• Rinses.

In severe attacks, doctors recommend wearing a special bandage, which is an excellent way to reduce the threat of pregnancy disruption. Only an immediate appeal to a specialist and cough treatment under his strict control will be able to bring effective results without harming the future child.

What is the cure for pregnancy during early and late periods?

Cough, as one of the symptoms of colds, causes discomfort to any person, and what to say about pregnant women.

It can happen on any day of long-awaited pregnancy - the immunity in these 9 months is significantly weakened, hypothermia or the slightest contact with a sick person, which may seem healthy in appearance, easily leads to cold, acute respiratory infections.

It is important to understand that coughing is not a disease, but a symptom of a variety of diseases and is a reflex reaction of the organism, which facilitates the release of the respiratory tract from the pathological bronchial secret. That is, one should not cure a cough, but a disease that caused it. Sometimes, coughing can be a consequence of an allergic reaction of the body to any external stimulus (see. allergic cough: symptoms, treatment).

Treatment of cough during pregnancy is a serious problem, since most effective combined antitussive drugs or expectorants for cough, including plant, is prohibited pregnant. And not infrequently pregnant women with caution perceive the appointment of even approved medications, fearing to harm the baby, and using cough medicine from traditional medicine. But you should know that some medicinal plants are also contraindicated and have side effects, not less than medicamentous.

Another wrong way is to use children's syrup from cough during pregnancy and other medications used for cough treatment in infants up to 3 years of age, since the approved cough for children can not always be safe for the fetus. Every future mother should know that cough should be treated, and treated according to the doctor's recommendations.

What is dangerous cough?

Since cough, as a rule, accompanies a viral or bacterial disease of the respiratory system, the lack of adequate treatment is dangerous both for the mother (complications, the transition of the disease in a chronic form), and for the child, as it creates a real threat to pregnancy - the risk of intrauterine infection, premature birth or miscarriage, malformations of the fetus.

Cough itself, as a reflex action, leads to an increase in the tone of the uterus - a dangerous condition that does not abort pregnancy and fetal hypoxia. Women with low placenta or with placenta previa cough due to significant muscular strain threatens with uterine bleeding.

A severe cough during pregnancy causes an attack of nausea and aggravates the course of toxicosis, if any (see. nausea in pregnancy, gestosis during pregnancy).

1 trimester of pregnancy - what drugs to cure cough?

The first 2 months of fetal gestation are the most important, since it is during this period that the main formation of systems and organs, and a small fertilized egg acquires real human features, as parents are convinced at the first screening.

The most serious pathologies and malformations of the fetus occur precisely in the first trimester, and to provoke them, including, the reception of a contraindicated drug.

It is advisable not to get sick in the first weeks, but if this happens, you should immediately visit a doctor - it's the doctor will determine the cause of the cough, hold the necessary examinations and recommend how and what to cure when pregnancy.

Initially, the doctor will be appointed sparing methods of fighting cough, and only then drugs, albeit relatively safe. The word is relatively well-used - an individual negative reaction to the active substances of the drugs is not ruled out.

Some future mothers use so-called cough drops, which are freely sold in supermarkets. To say that they will be of great benefit is wrong. Most often these sweets are saturated with extracts of mint and eucalyptus, along with preservatives, sweeteners and aromatizers, and the relief is very short, which forces the lozenges to dissolve one by one one.

The table shows cough preparations, the use of which is acceptable in pregnancy in the first trimester (see Table 1). a calculator for calculating the length of gestation by weeks).

Cough in pregnant women: what medications will help

The body of pregnant women becomes more sensitive, because he has to spend his immunity not only on himself, but also on the future child. It is more prone to allergic reaction, to the effects of viruses and bacteria. For this reason, pregnant women often have a cough, which is a symptom of a disease or allergy. Treatment of a cough is simply necessary, because it can carry negative consequences. However, this treatment should be correct, because not all cough remedies can be used while the child is waiting.

Cough during pregnancy: what is it

Cough is a reflex response to irritation of respiratory organs. If there was a cough, it means something in the body is unsuccessful, and you just need to contact the doctor about this. Usually we perceive cough as a symptom of colds, but this is not the only cause of coughing in pregnant women.

Causes

• ARI or ARVI; and what to do, when the cough does not pass after ARVI, is indicated in this article.
• Bronchitis;
• Pneumonia;
• ENT diseases;
• Cardiovascular diseases;
• Allergy; what is the treatment of the allergy of nasal congestion with folk remedies indicated in this article.
• Gastrointestinal disorders;
• Stress;
• Smoking. From this article, you can find out whether smoking is possible during a sore throat

It is very important to determine the cause, because it will depend on the treatment.

Types and features of the disease

It is customary to distinguish two types of cough: dry and wet. When dry, there is no separation of sputum from the respiratory system.If it is caused by viruses or bacteria, this kind of cough can be more dangerous, as pathogens and products of their vital functions are not removed from the bronchi and lungs.Dry cough usually occurs at the onset of the disease. Gradually, he goes into the wet, at which the woman can clear her throat, and with sputum the body gets rid of pathogens.

If the cough remains dry for a long time, and its character does not change, then, perhaps, it is allergic. In this case, treatment should be completely different.

Especially dangerous are coughing attacks, which can develop with certain diseases. Paroxysmal cough causes a significant tension in the muscles of the abdomen, spasms of the musculature of the uterus, which is unsafe for the unborn child.

Pregnancy is usually divided into trimesters, each has its own characteristics. Cough and its treatment during pregnancy also have features depending on the period.

First trimester

During this period immunity is especially reduced, at the same time, the development of the basic organs and systems of the future baby is taking place. This is a very important and dangerous period.It is in the first trimester that a woman is most susceptible to developing colds and infectious diseases.These can be diseases of the ENT organs, pneumonia, bronchitis. It is not unusual for cases of allergy during this period of pregnancy. All this causes a cough.

So, in the first trimester a pregnant woman is trapped by a triple danger:

• At first, the diseases themselves threaten the normal development of the fetus.
• Secondly, such a symptom as a cough, is dangerous by overstrain of muscles and increased tone of the uterus.
• Thirdly, during this period it is extremely dangerous for the fetus to use a lot of drugs.

Chamomile turn, sage - popular folk remedies that can be used in the first trimester. However, before using it is better to consult your doctor

In the first trimester of pregnancy, no potent drugs can be taken.Treatment should be gentle. It can be inhalation of herbal decoctions or essential oils and taking these broths inside, compresses and wraps and other recipes from cough at home. The choice of herbs should only be done by a doctor, since he can take into account their side effects and contraindications.

Most often in the first trimester, chamomile, sequin, sage is used. Of essential oils - mint, eucalyptus. For the compress it is good to use cabbage leaves, smeared with honey.

Second trimester

It means 12-24 weeks gestation. This period is calmer for a woman. Her body has already adapted to a new state, so immunity becomes higher, and the risk of colds and infections decreases.However, stress, GI disease, heart, allergic reactions can still cause a cough.

The future child is already a little stronger: his organs have already formed and only continue to develop, in addition, the fetus is already under the protection of the placenta. Therefore, viral infections are no longer so scary, and during this period, a wider range of remedies can be used for treatment.

The most dangerous in the second trimester are 14 and 16-17 weeks. Cough during this period can lead to impaired fetal nutrition and oxygen hunger.

Hazards of the second trimester:

• Fetoplacental insufficiency,
• The risk of premature birth,
• Wrong formation of the nervous system and bone tissue.

All these dangers can be provoked by an ordinary cough, if it is not treated or does it wrong.

Third trimester

The last trimester of pregnancy is the least dangerous for the fetus in terms of disease and the effects of drugs. The placenta is already aging and becoming less permeable to both pathogens and medicines.However, the diseases of the mother speed up the aging of the placenta, and therefore worsen the nutrition of the fetus in the last weeks of development.Coughing is a symptom. Most often in the third trimester, its cause is a cold. Treatment during this period is individual, as it is necessary to take into account a multitude of factors of the woman's condition, the fetus and the course of the previous weeks of pregnancy.

Treatment of cough

The most important thing in treating pregnant women is not to harm the fetus. Self-medication is unacceptable.

Strongly contraindicated many drugs. This prohibition is especially strict in the early stages, it is based on the fact that these drugs can cause severe flogging in the development of the child. Also, not all the treatment procedures that are customarily prescribed for the treatment of various diseases are suitable for pregnant women.

What can not be pregnant

• Antibiotics;
• Such cough remedies as Linkas, Codelac, ACC, Bronholitin, Pertussin;
• Inhalation at high temperature;
• Mustards;
• Hot foot baths;
• Physiotherapy.

Tablets and lozenges

Any cough medicine for a pregnant woman is selected with a view of the minimum risk for the unborn child.

From solid dosage forms are tablets, lozenges and lozenges. One of the most common means for coughing during pregnancy is Mukaltin (an extract of an althaea). In addition, you can use extracts of other herbs, produced in the form of tablets.

For pregnant women, extracts of mother-and-stepmother, plantain are considered effective and at the same time relatively safe.

Tablets from a cough with a medicinal plant Thermopsis can also be used for pregnant women

Prescribe to pregnant women and tablets for coughing thermopsis with soda, which are usually called "From a cough". This plant has a good expectorant effect.The composition of the tablets also includes sodium bicarbonate, which dilutes sputum.However, you need to take these pills with caution and taking into account individual characteristics, because large doses of thermopsis can provoke miscarriage.

Of drugs that suppress the cough reflex is allowed Tusuprex in tablets.

From the 14th week of pregnancy, if necessary, tablets and dragées containing butamirate may be prescribed: Intussin, Stoptussin.

Lozenges and lozenges are convenient in that they not only help cough, but also soften the sore throat, improve nasal breathing with a cold. Most often these preparations contain extracts of sage, eucalyptus, plantain, chamomile. It can be: Travisil, Dr. Theiss.

Syrups

For the cough syrup can be prescribed. They can be based on the same herbs as in tablets, for example, marshmallows. Such means are considered safe for pregnant women:

• Syringe althea (analogous to Muciltin with a damp cough);
• Syrup of licorice;
• Syrup Doctor Theiss.

You can meet recommendations for the treatment of cough in pregnant women with the help of Gedelix, Bronhicum or Sinekoda.However, manufacturers of these drugs in the instructions warn that there is not enough clinical practice for this. Therefore, the doctor in each case decides whether to prescribe drugs.

Consequences and complications

The usual cough, which seems quite harmless, can lead to complications - miscarriage, premature birth

Danger can be both the cough itself and the disease that caused it. An ordinary cold without proper treatment can lead to complications such as bronchitis or pneumonia that require serious treatment.

Cough, especially severe paroxysmal, causes tension in the muscles of the abdomen and uterus, which may serve to increase its tone and increase the risk of miscarriage.

Also, the tension on coughing can provoke a detachment of the placenta. It threatens with premature birth and hormonal failure.

Effective cough remedies for pregnancy

Pregnancy is a wonderful period for a woman. If it is desired, all 9 months pass in a positive mood. Pros of pregnancy is actually a lot, for example: light work at work and at home, a daily walk, sometimes even with a loved one, dreams of a future child, talking with him and so on. But along with the pluses, all 9 months are fraught with a lot of life-threatening mother and baby situations. It is a question of various diseases, which the pregnant woman carries on any term.

What are the dangerous diseases during pregnancy?

For a maturing baby, it is extremely important that nothing prevents the formation of its basic organs, especially the nervous system, intrauterine growth and development. After all during this period all cells, systems and functions of organs are laid. From the correct behavior and way of life of the mother during this period depends almost the entire life of the child. If a woman does not protect herself, she is at risk of contracting an infection, it can end badly for the fetus. For example, a disease such as rubella leads to fading of the fetus. There are also many other infectious diseases that will certainly lead to a delay in the maturation of all the systems of the organism of an unprotected baby. This applies to complex diseases. But are seasonal ailments dangerous: an ordinary cold, a cough? What are the cough suppressants for pregnancy?

If there was a cough during pregnancy, what should I do?

By itself, a cough of obvious harm to the health and development of the fetus does not bring. But there are some nuances that can be dangerous for a woman during this period. If a dry cough appeared during pregnancy, it should be treated immediately, as the sputum is not excreted and absorbed into the blood, gradually reaching the baby. In addition, dry cough can indicate diseases such as bronchitis, pneumonia, tuberculosis and so on. With this cough, you should always consult a doctor to determine the diagnosis and receive appropriate recommendations. Also dangerous can be a cough of any kind at the beginning of the term, as, trying to clear her throat, a woman can provoke a threat of miscarriage. If there is no possibility to consult a doctor right away, you need to know what means of coughing can be used during pregnancy. In this case it is very important to choose the right drug or method of treatment. After all, there are drugs that can not be used on a specific date. The most softer and safer can cure cough, if you use the recipes of traditional medicine.

Essential funds for coughing during pregnancy

If you divide cough into species, you can distinguish two main: dry (unproductive) and wet (productive). The first because of the absence of sputum discharge does not perform its basic function - protective. Most often it indicates the occurrence of the following pathologies: laryngitis, viral infections, tracheitis, pleurisy, pneumonia, bronchial tumors. In order to translate this type of cough into a productive one with sputum, it is necessary to treat it as quickly as possible. Why such urgency? From a dry cough during pregnancy, bleeding may occur if the child's location and placenta previa are low. In the case of such a cough, the doctor may prescribe medications on herbs or with an acceptable chemical composition. It can be syrups or tablets that depress the medulla cough center in the medulla oblongata, and reduce the inflammation and sensitivity of the mucous membrane of all respiratory tract to irritants that they are attacked.

Actions of a woman with a strong cough in 1 trimester

If there are signs of ARVI at the beginning of pregnancy, and the more developed cough, you should immediately consult a doctor. This period is very important because in the first 3 months cells are actively dividing, creating organs and systems of the child's body. Let's imagine the situation from the inside: in a perfectly protected warm place inside the mother, actively during the day and night is the process of forming the legs, pens, spout, sponges, internal organs. And then only the nervous system of the baby that has begun to develop develops a threat in the form of a twitch abdomen, strong sound and tension of the muscles of the mother, as well as a walking infection through the woman's body - all this cough.

If there was a cough during pregnancy (1 trimester), you need to take a very responsible approach to his treatment, because at this time the formation processes are slowing down. In addition, the supply of nutrients and vitamins to the baby is hampered. If this condition lasts a long time, some organs may be incorrectly formed or not fully formed. This can also occur due to inadequate treatment, for example with antibiotics. Means for coughing during pregnancy at this time are selected most harmless. The main ones are:

• Inhalation is an effective remedy for dry as well as moist cough.
• Compresses. There are effective recipes:
• • compress with honey (spread the breast with liquid honey, cover with polyethylene and wrap it around with something warm);
  • from potatoes (boil a couple of potatoes, pokoloch them and wrapped in polyethylene and knitted flap, attach to the chest for 10 minutes);
  • compress with cabbage and honey (take a large leaf of cabbage, soak it in boiling water so that it is not cold, then anoint it with honey and sprinkle with a small pinch of salt, then put on the chest, covered with polyethylene and a warm blanket), this compress can be done for the whole night.
• Rinse throat - most often this method is used for dry cough. Herbs from coughing during pregnancy are the best way to safely treat an ailment, so you can use infusions, decoctions, and preparations to rinse.

How to cope with a cough in the 2nd trimester?

Very often there are such medications, for which the contra-indication to use is 1 trimester of pregnancy. But already in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters they can be used. Of course, even at this stage of the child's development some drugs are a threat, but the range of cough suppressants has already expanded. Prescribes medicines, of course, a doctor. Most often, pregnant women can be used to treat those medications that are allowed to babies from birth. Cough during pregnancy (2 trimester) can be treated with such medications as Mukaltin, Herbion, Prospan, Pektolvan, Gedelix. Of the means of traditional medicine are suitable all those that can be in the first trimester.

Cough during pregnancy, 3rd trimester

When a cough occurs at this time, the woman begins to worry very much, because the tone of the uterus can be more frequent, and consequently, the variants of premature births are possible. Of course, I would not want to infect a baby at birth when the illness came on the 9th month.

What is dangerous cough during pregnancy in the 3rd trimester

In the last trimester of pregnancy, the fetus is intensively growing. A future mother in later terms is very susceptible to infection with various diseases, the concomitant phenomenon of which is a cough. He can deliver many unpleasant moments to the pregnant woman and cause various critical conditions.

Causes of danger during the last trimester of pregnancy

Reflex forced forced exhalations are only a symptom accompanying certain diseases:

• ARVI.
• Bronchitis.
• Allergies.
• Inflammation of the lungs.
• Dysfunctions of the thyroid gland and other ailments.

No pathological process can be favorable for bearing a baby.

As an independent phenomenon, cough is also extremely harmful for a pregnant woman in the last trimester. It can cause irreparable damage to the health of mother and child.

Cough at 7 months of pregnancy

After 27 weeks, there is a high risk of fetoplacental insufficiency resulting from the blocking of various infections that cause cough during pregnancy. Such an anomaly leads to hypoxia and a delay in intrauterine development of the fetus.

From 28 to 30 weeks the child moves a lot and becomes cramped, as the uterus strongly envelops him. It rises high and presses against the diaphragm. At this time the uterine musculature continues to prepare intensively for childbirth, periodically contracting. Cough during pregnancy on the 3rd trimester serves as a powerful provocateur, greatly enhancing such reflexive urges. They can develop into real bouts and cause premature termination of pregnancy.

Cough at 8 months of pregnancy

From the age of 32 the baby can already hear well. Mom's strong cough prevents him from falling asleep. The uterus in this trimester rises to the ribs and the woman often lacks air. During the attacks at 33, 34 weeks pregnant begins to suffocate. This causes oxygen starvation of the child.

The rhythm of the baby's heart at the 8th month can reach 120-160 beats per minute. Because of cough during pregnancy on the 3rd trimester, his blood pressure rises and arrythmia arises, which causes congenital pathologies.

From 32 to 35 weeks, the maximum stretching of the uterus occurs. With constant attacks of convulsive forced exhalations, she can react spontaneously with cramping movements. This increases the risk of premature birth, increases the likelihood of rupture of an inferior rumen, if a woman previously had a cesarean section. Therefore, treat the disease as soon as possible.

Cough at 9 months of pregnancy

From 36 weeks, the production of placenta progesterone is reduced. Occurrence of its relative insufficiency occurs. The child begins to lack the components necessary for proper nutrition and breathing. During coughing attacks during pregnancy in late terms, the tone of the uterus greatly increases. This further reduces the flow of blood to the placenta and provokes venous congestion. In the third trimester between mother and child organisms, gas exchange is disrupted, oxygen supply, useful substances are slowed down, and the process of excretion of metabolic products is destabilized.

By the 37th week the placenta is aging and becoming very thin. At sharp forced exhalations there is a big risk of its exfoliation and outflow of amniotic fluid.

At 38-39 weeks, the uterus covers the child more closely. His adrenal glands begin to intensify the production of cortisol. Coughing attacks during pregnancy, causing an increase in blood pressure of the mother and child, provoke an even greater increase in the release of the stress hormone. This negatively affects the state of the nervous system of the baby.

How to treat cough during pregnancy in the 3rd trimester

It is only the doctor who can determine the cause causing the attacks of sharp reflex exhalations and their nature. The main thing is to contact him in a timely manner. After the appointment of a specialist, you must carefully follow all the prescriptions and forget about unauthorized use of medications.

It is recommended to avoid the use of antibiotics and antiviral drugs. Doctors put emphasis on the application:

• Rinse throat with soda solution.
• Inhalation with herbs or boiled potatoes.
• Abundant drink fruit fruit, tea with raspberries and currants, milk with butter and honey, herbal decoctions.
• Various compresses.
• Mandatory consumption of mashed potatoes with the addition of a large amount of milk, as well as sour cream with a grated radish.

It is strictly forbidden to treat the disease:

• Soar your feet, put cans and apply mustard plasters.
• Attend physiotherapy.
• Take drugs that have alcohol in the composition.
• Use funds from cough during pregnancy in the 3rd trimester containing chemicals.

During the last trimester of pregnancy, after agreement with the doctor, it is allowed to treat the ailment with certain types of syrups from coughing, as well as breastfeeding.

A future mother needs to remember that she must carefully monitor her health. Incorrect or belated therapy can be a serious enough threat of pregnancy. It is necessary to observe measures to prevent diseases that cause coughing. After all, her future baby is formed, and she is obliged to take care of that he is born strong and healthy.

The second trimester of pregnancy lasts from 12 to 24 weeks, during this period the baby is reliably protected by the placenta, which prevents the penetration of viral infections into his body. Through the placenta, he receives nutrients and oxygen from his mother, but the virus can cause a violation of such a vital relationship.

Many women are often interested in specialists whether a cold can really affect a pregnancy if it penetrates the organism of a future mother after 13 weeks from the moment of conception.The danger of catarrhal disease is that placental exchange can easily be disrupted, as a result of which oxygen is supplied in insufficient quantities to the baby. In the case when there is oxygen starvation, and soon and hypoxia of the fetus, can be observed slowed-down physical and mental development, underdevelopment or incorrect formation of many organs and systems.Proceeding from this, obstetrician-gynecologists recommend that all women from the moment of conception constantly monitor their health and take all necessary measures to prevent the development of colds.

Due to fetoplacental insufficiency caused by impaired placental metabolism, a child may be born earlier than expected, often with underweight. Such babies usually have pale skin color, they are very sluggish and weak. Moreover, in the second trimester there is an active development of the nervous system, therefore there is a great risk that it may also suffer. Therefore, there is no doubt that the common cold affects pregnancy, having a harmful effect on the mother and child.

Of course, it is much better if a woman prepares her body in advance for the upcoming serious strain, having strengthened immunity, due to which catarrhal diseases for 9 months can not harm her and her to kid.

It is believed that the temperature does not adversely affect the condition and development of the baby, because at this time it already protects the placenta.

However, this subfebrile condition should not be observed in the third trimester of pregnancy.Sometimes the presence of temperature can be caused by the ectopic position of the fetus, therefore it is required to undergo ultrasound.
