The Chinese New Year is supposed to be a time of reunion and celebration, but a covid-19 outbreak has disrupted people’s normal pace of life.
Is this a good time to have a baby for couples who are trying to get pregnant during the extended holiday season?
The reporter of China women’s news · China women’s net interviewed professor bian wenhui, director of department of gynaecology of hebei hospital of traditional Chinese medicine at this point, she very affirmation answer: “not!”

Bian wen will say, now we have a strong sense of good birth and good breeding, as the saying goes, “can’t let the child lose at the starting line”, what is the starting line?
“The first three months of the union are the starting point for the future child.”
As a fertilized egg evolves from a cell to a human being, the quality of the parents’ sperm and eggs, the mother’s physical condition, mental state and living environment after pregnancy will all influence the physical health of the future child, bian will explain.
Therefore, it is very important to choose an appropriate time to conceive.

What are some of the risk factors associated with covid-19?
Bian wenhui pointed out that, first of all, in the spiritual aspect, the epidemic is a big event for everyone, and many people are in a state of fear, nervousness and even confusion.
People stay at home, most of the people’s work and rest is disorder, relaxation, life led to physical decline is inevitable.

In terms of diet, bian wen will point out that the long holiday home, almost every family is a big fish and big meat, eat sleep sleep.
Too much food is too thick be bored with adverse to the function of the spleen and stomach, the function of the spleen and stomach is bad, how can the body be good again?
On the other hand, fresh vegetables in winter are already relatively inadequate, and it is not convenient to go out to buy vegetables in unusual times, which leads to the lack of vegetables, incomplete diet and unavoidably nutritional imbalance.

As for environmental factors, the air quality in many places during the Spring Festival is poor and the smog is heavy. According to the meteorological department, the air pollution during this year’s Spring Festival is particularly serious. “severe air pollution is by no means the best time to get pregnant,” it said.
Side will say

What’s more, it’s not good to go to the hospital for an early checkup if you’re pregnant now, bian said.
“At the moment of the epidemic, once you get pregnant, you have to go to the hospital for a regular pregnancy test, which is often the most dangerous place.
If you can’t do the pregnancy test on time, it will lead to an increase in accidents.
If a pregnant woman becomes infected with covid-19, the consequences are even worse.”

Bian wen will remind you that at present, I hope newlyweds can keep a happy mood, exercise their bodies and make adequate preparations before pregnancy. It is more appropriate to wait for the epidemic to pass and the warm spring flowers to bloom before giving birth to a new life.
