  It would be better if my physical discomfort has improved significantly in all aspects, I will not feel tired, and I don't have a particularly obvious cough. It may be better for mother and baby to prepare for pregnancy at this time.

Some people may cough for a long time. Generally, we average 6-8 weeks, and some people even take longer. Most people usually recover naturally within three months.

  It's not that my pregnancy before this time will definitely affect the baby's health, it's just that you have physical discomfort, which will aggravate your discomfort after facing pregnancy, and there will be many concerns about medication.

If I am already pregnant, unless we use some clear teratogenic (risk) drugs, there is no need to terminate the pregnancy because I got a new crown after pregnancy.

  In fact, if he or she is already a "Yangkang" pregnant mother or expectant father, he (she) is already a healthy person. At this time, we can completely follow our normal pregnancy preparation process to prepare for pregnancy.

We avoid exposure to harmful substances, quit smoking and alcohol, and maintain a good schedule.

Another important thing is to supplement folic acid. We generally recommend that it is best for both husband and wife to supplement with 0.4-0.8 mg of folic acid every day. You can start supplementing three months in advance of pregnancy preparation.

Some special occupations, such as exposure to harmful substances, radiation, and teratogenic harmful substances, leave the teratogenic environment in advance before preparing for pregnancy.
