Fetal development during pregnancy is a wonderful and complex process in which a fully developed baby is formed from a fertilized egg. This process is driven by a combination of genetic, hormonal and environmental factors. However, many external and internal factors can affect the development of the fetus.

Dr. Molshree Gupta, Senior Fetal Medicine Expert at CK Birla Hospital (R) in Delhi, spoke to us about what factors can affect fetal development.

affecting fetal development1. Genetic: Genes play an important role in the growth capacity of the baby.

2. Nutrition: A balanced diet rich in essential nutrients like proteins, vitamins and minerals is essential for the healthy development of the fetus.

3. Hormones: Hormones like insulin and growth hormone play an important role in fetal development.

4. Mother's health: Problems like diabetes, high blood pressure and infections can have a negative impact on the development of the fetus.

5. Uterus and placenta: Any problem in the uterus or placenta can affect the supply of nutrients and oxygen to the fetus.

6. Lifestyle: Smoking, alcohol and consumption of drugs can harm the development of the fetus.

Effects of Diabetes and High Blood Pressure Diabetes

and high blood pressure can cause many problems in the development of the fetus during pregnancy. Let's know how?

* High blood sugar levels can lead to an enlarged baby, which increases problems in delivery.

* Reduced blood flow to the placenta can slow down the baby's growth.

* Uncontrolled blood sugar in the first trimester can increase the risk of miscarriage and birth defects.

High blood pressure

* Obstruction of blood flow to the placenta can lead to a decrease in the growth of the baby.

* Premature delivery and premature separation of placenta can lead to serious problems.

Prevention and care

* Monitoring blood sugar and blood pressure regularly.

* Consumption of medicines with the advice of a doctor.

* Balanced diet and regular exercise.

* Monitor fetal development through ultrasound and routine antenatal care.
