What is the impact of low antithrombin III on pregnancy?
Poor mood during pregnancy may affect the fetus in various ways, such as leading to poor fetal temperament, impaired fetal development, and increased risk of hyperactivity disorders. The specific analysis is as follows:
1. Poor fetal temperament
A pregnant woman's mental state and emotional behaviors can influence hormone secretion in her body, thereby affecting the formation of the child's postnatal personality. Therefore, poor mood during pregnancy may result in reduced learning ability and social skills after the baby is born, along with negative emotions such as irritability. Prolonged negative emotions may also impair the child's intellectual development.
2. Impaired fetal development
If a pregnant woman experiences prolonged periods of poor mood, it may disrupt her endocrine function. Significant emotional fluctuations can lead to fetal hypoxia (lack of oxygen), affect the normal fetal heartbeat, and consequently cause impaired fetal development.
3. Increased risk of hyperactivity disorder
If a pregnant woman frequently feels upset during pregnancy, it may interfere with the development of the fetal hypothalamus. After birth, the child may exhibit restlessness, excessive crying, and hyperactivity, with some possibly developing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
In addition to the above, poor maternal mood during pregnancy may also increase the risk of preterm birth. It is recommended that pregnant women maintain a positive mood throughout pregnancy and avoid prolonged periods of anxiety or irritability.
