Factors can impact your baby’s growth during pregnancy (such as uncontrolled diabetes and more)
Share
Several factors can impact your baby’s growth during pregnancy, affecting overall development and birth outcomes. Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to excessive fetal growth (macrosomia) or growth restriction, increasing complications during delivery. High blood pressure can reduce blood flow to the placenta, limiting oxygen and nutrients. Poor nutrition or severe maternal stress can hinder fetal development, while smoking, alcohol, or drug use increases the risk of low birth weight and preterm birth. Infections, genetic disorders, and placental issues also play a role. Regular prenatal check-ups, a balanced diet, and a healthy lifestyle help promote optimal fetal growth and a safe pregnancy.
