Which pregnancy test do you think is the most torturous during pregnancy?

During pregnancy, there are all kinds of games to fight monsters and upgrade. When you pass the first level, you will feel very happy, but the second level will come soon. Just like this, one level after another, always in I kept going through all the tests. During the whole pregnancy, I had a lot of pregnancy tests, and there were a lot of projects, such as NT, Down syndrome screening, diabetes screening, four-dimensional color ultrasound, etc. There were indeed many projects, but pregnant mothers still had to go through one test after another. No matter which one it is, it is a kind of torture for the pregnant mother during the examination. So which one is the most torture?

1. Internal inspection. Internal examination is an examination that most mothers who give birth are afraid of. After experiencing symptoms before delivery, the doctor will use internal examination to understand some conditions of the pregnant mother, such as the position of the fetal head, the condition of the soft birth canal, and the degree of cervical dilation. , because the internal examination requires the pregnant mother to be half-naked in front of the doctor, and then the doctor will use the index finger and middle finger to insert the pregnant mother's private parts to understand what the doctor wants to know. Because the pregnant mother is extremely nervous and embarrassed, the muscles are tight, so there will be some pain during the examination. Moreover, the number of internal examinations is variable. Anyway, it has to wait until the cervix is ??fully dilated. The most frightening thing is that there may be a male doctor during the internal examination, which is really embarrassing.

It is recommended that pregnant mothers try to relax and distract themselves during internal examination. After their attention is distracted elsewhere, they will not feel so painful. Even male doctors have to overcome this embarrassing feeling. You must know that in the eyes of doctors, there is no difference between you and other pregnant women.

2. Four-dimensional color ultrasound. The four-dimensional color ultrasound performed at 22 to 26 weeks is also very torturous. Through this color ultrasound, we can detect malformations on the fetal body surface and some internal organs, including some abnormalities of the nervous system. It must be said that it is of great significance. Precisely because it is of such great significance, you need to be very careful when doing this examination. The hands, feet, head, front, back, left, and right of the fetus must be seen clearly one by one. It takes a lot of time. If the fetus is more cooperative, it may only take 30 days. --40 minutes. If the fetus does not cooperate, it will take a lot of time. Because the pregnant mother needs to rest, or needs to go out for a walk, eat something, etc., she can just do it for half an hour. If she comes back half an hour later, the baby's position may not have changed, and then she has to wait until the next time, which may be in the afternoon. , maybe tomorrow.

It took the lazy mother about two or three hours to do the three-dimensional examination. Because the fetus did not turn over, the lazy mother wandered outside for half an hour before returning to the B-ultrasound room to continue the examination. Both times, the doctor said it was faster. Another pregnant mother went to the hospital for a 3D scan for the fourth time (morning and afternoon on the first day and morning and afternoon on the second day) because the fetus never turned to the angle the doctor wanted to see, and she felt tired just thinking about it.

3. Diabetes screening. Diabetes screening is also a very grueling test. When doing this test, you need to fast for 12 hours, then dilute 50 grams of glucose powder with 200ml of water, and drink it within 5 minutes. It takes 1 hour from the first drink of water. Then draw blood to check blood sugar. If the blood sugar value is abnormal, you need to do a further glucose tolerance test (OGTT). That is, first draw blood to check blood sugar on an empty stomach for 12 hours, then dilute 75 grams of glucose powder with 300ml of water, and drink it within 5 minutes. Starting from taking the first sip of sugar water, blood will be drawn to check blood sugar after 1 hour, 2 hours, and 3 hours later. This test requires an empty stomach, so the pregnant mother will be hungry and tired, which is quite torturous. Some hospitals will skip the sugar screening and directly do the glucose tolerance test, which is still very torturous.

4. Down syndrome screening. Down syndrome screening is mainly a screening test for Down syndrome. The psychological pressure is very high when doing this test. Many pregnant mothers will be particularly worried about the results when doing this test. However, the accuracy of this test is not particularly high, and the risk will increase with the age of the pregnant mother. However, even if the accuracy is not high, it can still scare the pregnant mother. It’s good if the test result is low risk, but if the test shows high-risk pregnant mothers, don’t worry too much. You can do further tests, such as non-invasive DNA or amniocentesis.

In fact, every examination during pregnancy is torture for pregnant mothers. After every examination, they will worry about abnormal results. Even if a simple fetal heart rate monitoring fails, if oxygen is needed, Pregnant mothers will feel as if they are facing a formidable enemy and are worried all day long. It is best to unload the goods quickly so that they no longer have to worry about it.
