Anemia in pregnant women affects the intelligence of the baby. Recommended dietary treatments for anemia during pregnancy.

　　pregnancy anemia Symptoms generally include dizziness after pregnancy, pale face, fatigue, easy fatigue, thin and brittle nails, fetus Growth restriction, etc. Mild anemia has little impact on pregnancy. Severe anemia can cause placental hypoxia and cause intrauterine asystole. In severe cases, it can also cause premature birth or stillbirth. Due to the insufficient supply of blood and oxygen in the placenta, it also affects the growth and development of the fetus. Even if the pregnancy can be carried to full term, the child will be born small, light in weight, and have poor intelligence.

　　What impact does anemia in pregnant women have on the baby?

　　1、baby Visual and motor inflexibility: For example, the child's ability to reach for the suspended toys, ingest small objects with the thumb and index finger, and beading, stacking, and building blocks and puzzles that require understanding of visual and motor coordination are all lagging behind. This will also affect the child's homework ability after entering elementary school.

　　2. It is difficult to develop a day and night pattern: Normal babies are easy to wake up when there is sufficient light. In darkness, the brain's penetration of chemical transmitters formed by pain and some stimuli slows down, and they gradually develop a life pattern of sleeping at night and waking during the day. When iron is lacking, the difference in light transmission speed disappears, and everything is felt as sensitively at night as during the day.

　　3. Sluggish muscle movement ability: During iron deficiency, myoglobin does not contain enough iron, resulting in muscle contraction and weakness. The baby is delayed in raising his head, turning over, sitting up, crawling, standing and walking. Anemia makes children feel weak all over and unwilling to move. They always lie or sit, causing the movements they have learned to gradually regress.

　　4. Poor understanding and language: Insufficient iron storage in the mother's body within 6 months will cause the baby to be listless and tired, have no interest in external things, and are afraid to accept new things, so their cognitive abilities lag behind. Because iron-deficient infants have difficulty concentrating and are confused about changes in sounds, they neither seek to understand the meaning of the changes in sounds nor are too lazy to imitate the pronunciation, so their understanding ability is insufficient. There is little requirement for active communication, so language skills are lagging behind.

　　5. Poor memory: Because iron-containing enzymes are mostly gathered at the edge of the brain, they are also the memory storage area of ​​the brain. When iron deficiency occurs, the enzyme activity in this area is insufficient, resulting in delayed memory, making it difficult for children to learn objects, recite children's songs, and recognize numbers. Pregnant women suffering from iron deficiency anemia will not only have low immunity, but also affect the normal development of the fetal brain. from clinical Look, early pregnancy is the fetal brain nerve The cell proliferation period is a critical period for brain development. If a pregnant woman develops anemia symptoms at this stage, it is very likely to affect the fetus's intelligence and behavioral abilities after birth.
