Many pregnant women experience an intense “surge” of energy in the last few weeks of pregnancy, but care must be taken not to overdo it at the end of the pregnancy. Find out what you can and what you cannot do at the end of the third trimester of pregnancy!
1) Take care to clean and tidy up
A very common attitude towards the end of pregnancy is the so-called “orderly nest syndrome”. It is a crazy need to clean the house to make everything clean and beautiful for the baby’s arrival.
The ideal, however, is that you try to rest and prepare for the delivery. Call someone to help you or do the bare minimum. This is not the ideal time to wash windows, clean walls and risk falling off a ladder. Don’t forget: not only are your body’s ligaments looser, but your belly changes your body’s axis of balance!
Also, don’t go overboard with your efforts to get everything on track in your work. Stress at this stage can speed up delivery. And nobody wants a premature birth, do they?
Can pregnancy drive?
From the 35th week, the guide is no longer recommended. The anxiety, fatigue, and lack of focus typical of this phase can disturb your reflexes. In the event of a collision or sudden braking, the steering wheel can hit the belly, which is closer. If your blood pressure is very low and fainting is constant, don’t take the risk of driving.
Can you travel at the end of pregnancy?
Long journeys, especially those by plane, should also be avoided due to the risk of thrombosis and premature birth. Typically, midwives advise against flights for those over 27 weeks, and airlines themselves have restrictions, which vary in the number of weeks.
If you are traveling by car or bus, stop or get up and walk at least every four hours due to leg swelling. Always speak to your doctor before traveling, as this should be a joint decision in this late pregnancy period.
Other precautions to be taken in 3or quarter
We emphasize: resting as much as possible is the best way to avoid the risk of premature birth. Eat right and drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated.
Other valid measures are to avoid standing for long, so that legs and feet do not become so swollen and sore. And don’t take hot showers to avoid the risk of a drop in blood pressure or fainting.
