Dangerous timing of pregnancy

The future mother has to watch her health very carefully during the whole waiting period of the baby. Meanwhile, there are such time intervals in which it is necessary to exercise special care. In this article, we will tell you what the timing of pregnancy is considered the most dangerous, and with what it is related.

What is the most dangerous term of pregnancy?

The overwhelming majority of medical workers mark such dangerous terms during pregnancy, as:

1. 2-3 weeks - the implantation period, during which a fertilized egg is introduced into the wall of the uterus. Most women at this time still do not even suspect about the coming conception and continue to lead a habitual way of life, which can adversely affect the course of further pregnancy.
2. The second critical period is 4-6 weeks. During this period, there is a high probability of abortion, as well as the risk of severe fetal malformations.
3. At the end of the first trimester, that is, at a period of 8-12 weeks , another dangerous period occurs. At this time, the placenta is actively developing, and any negative factors can harm the future baby. Especially often at this time there are violations associated with hormonal imbalance in the body of a pregnant woman.
4. The fourth critical period affects the period from 18 to 22 weeks. At this time, pregnancy is often interrupted due to isthmico-cervical insufficiency, various pathologies of the placenta, as well as sexually transmitted infections. For a future mother, termination of pregnancy at this time is the most difficult from a psychological point of view.
5. Finally, at 28-32 weeks of pregnancy, another dangerous period occurs, when the likelihood of premature birth is significantly increased . As a rule, this is due to gestosis, placental abruption, fetoplacental insufficiency and other disorders.
