"Pregnancy" means different things to different people. Women who aren't ready to be mothers may see it as an unexpected trouble, while those prepared for motherhood view it as a gift from heaven. Gynecological experts at Xi'an Sank Qin Hospital remind these expectant mothers that they must regularly visit the hospital for check-ups, commonly known as "prenatal examinations," to keep track of the expectant mother's health and the development of the fetus.
1. Urine Samples: Collecting urine samples using a cup and test tube has become a routine task for pregnant women during their hospital visits. If the protein content in the urine is high, it might be due to not collecting the midstream urine sample correctly.
2. Weight: If weight gain is too rapid, doctors will provide appropriate exercise and dietary control plans for pregnant women. Conversely, if there is little weight gain, doctors will advise pregnant women to supplement more nutrition to ensure the healthy growth of the fetus.
3. Fetal Heartbeat and Movement: Traditional methods of detecting fetal heartbeat and movement mostly use stethoscopes, but now Doppler fetal heart monitoring has become widespread. A fetal heartbeat between 120-160 beats per minute is considered normal. After 28 weeks, pregnant women should count fetal movements at least once daily, fostering early communication between mother and baby.
4. Abdominal Circumference: As the baby grows in the womb, the most obvious change for women is the enlargement of their abdomen. In the middle to late stages of pregnancy, a woman's navel usually protrudes, sometimes even making the umbilical hole invisible, leaving the belly round and full.
5. Uterine Height: Measuring uterine height is another routine check-up for pregnant women. Doctors measure vertically to assess the baby's growth. Pregnant women often find it difficult to measure or accurately gauge their own uterine height, so professional assistance is necessary.

6. Ultrasound: Each pregnant woman will undergo at least three ultrasounds throughout her pregnancy, approximately at 12 weeks, 24-25 weeks, and after 36 weeks. In the later stages of pregnancy, ultrasounds can roughly estimate the weight range of the fetus and understand the conditions inside the uterus, helping both doctors and expectant mothers decide on the mode of delivery.
