In the second trimester, the pregnancy reaction basically disappears, the abdomen is not too large, the movement is more convenient, and the appetite is improved, so it is the most comfortable stage in the entire pregnancy. The second trimester is also the most important stage of fetal growth and development. The focus of health care is:

Month 4: The face of the fetus looks more like an adult, with a slight increase in weight, more prominent eyes, and fingerprints on the fingers. Snoring begins in the uterus, which is a precursor to the fetus beginning to breathe.

The fifth month: Fetal movements become more and more intense, the fetus grows hair, sucks the thumb, and the organs of all parts of the body gradually grow. The fetus is about 25 cm long and weighs about 224 to 500 grams.

6th month: The fetus can open and close eyes and hear sounds in the mother. Fingerprints and footprints have also been formed. At this time, the fetus is about 29 to 35 cm long and weighs about 560 to 680 grams.

7th month: The fetal brain function is becoming more and more perfect. The fetus has been able to switch directions by itself, and has begun to control various functions of the body, and can sense light and darkness through the brain.

1. Health guidance in the second trimester can be individualized according to the specific circumstances of the pregnant woman, and can also be given to the pregnant women in missions. Normal pregnant women check once every 2-3 weeks. Guide pregnant women to breast care after 24 weeks of pregnancy. The fetus develops rapidly during the second trimester, so nutrition and supplementation should be emphasized.

1.Be careful of constipation caused by hemorrhoids in the second trimester of pregnancy

Since mid-pregnancy, the expectant mother's factor palace has increased, and the intestines are pressed to the back, which makes it difficult to defecate during bowel movements, making bowel movements more difficult; and the peristalsis of the stomach is not good during pregnancy. Easily causes

1. The first fetal movement occurs when the pregnant woman is pregnant by the end of the 16th week. At this time, it indicates that the central nervous system of the fetus has completed differentiation; the hearing and vision of the fetus have begun to develop rapidly, and gradually respond to the external pressure, movement, and sound, especially the sound of maternal blood flow, heart sound, Bowel sounds are more familiar. At this time, the fetus is more sensitive to a single stimulus such as sound, light, and touch from the outside. If we take advantage of the rapid development of the fetal nervous system and give the fetal sensory organs a timely and appropriate amount of benign stimulation, we can promote their better development and lay a good foundation for the continuation of early education after birth.
2. Auditory training At this stage, the fetal auditory nerve and auditory system develop rapidly. Both husband and wife or pregnant women can make good use of this period of time to consciously perform appropriate auditory training on the fetus. For example: you can play beautiful lyric music to the fetus, and The fetus chats, tells stories to the fetus, recites poetry, especially the prospective father can have a meaningful dialogue with the fetus. These methods can stimulate the hearing development of the fetus, which is very helpful for children's future hearing. When choosing prenatal education music for a fetus, the effects of high-frequency music on fetal hearing should be avoided.
3. Coordinate training of touch and movement At this stage, the nervous system develops rapidly, and the fetus is sensitive to touch and strength. Couples can perform kinesthetic and tactile training on the fetus, for example, tapping and stroking the abdomen, echoing and cooperating with the fetus in the uterus to make the fetus feel this; touching or massaging the pregnant woman's abdomen on time can establish Communicating with the fetus through the fetal reflexive peristalsis promotes the coordinated development of its brain function, which is especially helpful for children's future movement flexibility and coordination.
