When facing various challenges during pregnancy, expectant mothers often feel confused and anxious, with the health and safety of the fetus being a primary concern. Recently, in consultations at IVF USA, we have frequently received questions about whether "bed rest helps protect the pregnancy." Today, we will delve into this issue, hoping to provide you with scientific and useful pregnancy preparation information, and reveal more fertility possibilities from the perspective of US and Mexico IVF.

 

 

When pregnant women face unstable fetal conditions, doctors sometimes recommend bed rest. In certain specific situations, especially after careful examination confirms the presence of unstable factors in the fetus, this practice can indeed play a role. Bed rest can help reduce the physical burden on the pregnant woman and minimize the influence of the external environment on the fetus, thereby increasing the possibility of successful pregnancy preservation. However, while bed rest may seem simple and easy, this does not mean that long-term bed rest is the best or only option.

 

Excessive or prolonged bed rest can bring a series of negative effects, much like a double-edged sword. It may lead to slowed blood circulation, weakened gastrointestinal function, and even decreased cardiopulmonary function. These physical discomforts not only affect the pregnant woman's own health but may also indirectly have an adverse impact on fetal development. Therefore, when doctors recommend bed rest, pregnant women should be mindful of moderation, avoid maintaining the same posture for prolonged periods, and can appropriately engage in some gentle physical activities to promote blood circulation and gastrointestinal peristalsis, thereby alleviating the negative effects of long-term bed rest.

 

 

We must recognize that the causes of early miscarriage are multifaceted and not solely due to fetal developmental abnormalities. Age plays an important role in early miscarriage, especially for women over 35, where the risk of miscarriage significantly increases. Additionally, chromosomal abnormalities are one of the common and primary causes of recurrent miscarriage.

 

For families who feel confused and anxious due to recurrent miscarriages, we highly recommend considering IVF-PGT technology. This advanced technology can help prospective parents screen for healthy embryos, effectively exclude embryos with chromosomal abnormalities, thereby significantly increasing the success rate of embryo implantation and reducing the risk of recurrent miscarriage. This brings new hope to many families who have experienced the pain of miscarriage.
