During that time pregnantThe health and daily life of pregnant mothers will always be closely related to the development of the fetus. There are habits that seem harmless but can also affect the baby in the belly. The mother’s case below is an example.
Tieu Ky (25 years old, living in Hangzhou, China) was pregnant with her first child shortly after getting married. Because she is the “first child and the first child” in the family, the pregnant mother is taken care of by both sides of the family, regularly enriched with nutritious dishes such as bird’s nest, seafood, stewed chicken, goose eggs, .. Tieu Ky is also very careful, has consulted with the doctor to build the best nutrition and activities for the development of the baby in the womb. Not only that, but she also regularly teaches with symphony music, reads books, practices yoga,…

With such careful care, in the first months of pregnancy, the baby in Tieu Ky’s belly develops very well. However, at 28 weeks, the doctor said that the fetus had no problems but was underweight compared to the norm. The pregnant mother continued to return home to supplement for another month, but the examination results remained unchanged, making her and her husband both worried and wondering why.
At this time, the doctor asked Tieu Ky:So, did the pregnant mother see any strange health or psychological problems? Or has the daily routine changed?”. Tieu Ky still couldn’t think of any problems, the husband next to him answered the doctor: “The strange thing is that since she was pregnant, she snores very loudly, every night. I don’t know if it has any effect?”.
By this time, the doctor knew the reason why Tieu Ky’s baby was underweight compared to week old. “The baby is underweight, maybe it’s because you snore. Because snoring increases blood pressure, the baby will not get enough blood supply to the brain and thereby lead to low birth weight.” the doctor said.
After that, with the support of doctors, Tieu Ky’s snoring improved and she gave birth to a healthy baby boy.

Pregnant women snoring related to the fetus?
According to the National Sleep Foundation, women snore during pregnancy because of nasal congestion, an increase in abdominal circumference, and a growing uterus under the diaphragm.
During pregnancy the blood vessels widen, the membranes of the nose can swell, obstructing the airway and leading to snoring. If snoring becomes severe, or sleep apnea can also have serious consequences for pregnant women and babies.
In 2013, scientists from the University of Michigan studied 1,673 pregnant women during the third trimester to examine the effects of snoring on childbirth. Pregnant women were asked about their snoring habits. Habitual snoring is defined as snoring at least 3 to 4 nights a week.
As a result, 35% of the women said they regularly snore. In which, 26% of women snore during pregnancy, 9% of women suffer from chronic snoring. Research shows that snoring is strongly linked to the risk of low birth weight and cesarean section.
In a study published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, scientists found that frequent snoring plays a major role in problems with high blood pressure and the risk of preeclampsia. Preeclampsia increases the risk of low birth weight and premature birth, and the newborn requires special care.
