These heat-related warning signs could protect expecting mothers and their unborn children. ☀ SAHealth210 Sponsored
Dr. Kerry Graebe, Obstetrician & Gynecologist at Methodist Hospital says there are ways to take precautionary measures in the heat, and recognize the signs of stress.
Graebe says the biggest risk when pregnant women are exposed to extreme heat outdoors is the development of the neural tube, or the brain and spinal cord.These warning signs include nausea, vomiting, generalized weakness, muscle aches and cramps, excessive thirst, and overall heat temperature. A pregnant woman’s body can regulate their temperature pretty well. However, pregnant women are more susceptible to dehydration, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. Graebe says these symptoms can come on much faster than a non-pregnant person.
