Secret of Healthy Pregnancy: Maintain hemoglobin between 11-13.5 g/dL

Pregnancy is a natural process in which the body of a female undergoes physiological changes to support the growth and development of a baby. In a healthy pregnancy, an adequate hemoglobin level ranging between 11 to 13.5 g/dL, is essential for the health of both the mother and the developing baby.

Hemoglobin is responsible to provide sufficient oxygen supply to the mother and the baby. If the hemoglobin levels are less than 11g/dL, it may cause anemia. Anemia during pregnancy leads to fatigue, stress, weakness, and other health issues for the mother. The drop in hemoglobin levels also results in poor pregnancy outcomes and impacts the overall health of the developing baby. It leads to preterm delivery referring to the delivery of baby before 9 months, retarded physical growth, and impaired brain functions of the newborn baby. To increase the hemoglobin levels and prevent anemia, the doctors prescribe iron supplements, folate or Vitamin B12, and iron-rich diet to the pregnant female. If the hemoglobin levels are more than 13.5g/dL, it increases the risk of stillbirths which means death of the baby in the womb before 28 weeks. Thus, it is necessary to monitor and maintain your hemoglobin levels regularly for your healthy pregnancy.

Hemoglobin: Protection against Preterm delivery!

When a baby is born before 9 months of pregnancy, the condition is considered as preterm delivery. The preterm delivery occurs due to early contractions or rupture of waterbag before 37 weeks of pregnancy. The full-term pregnancy is generally of around 40 weeks. If the baby is born before 9 months of pregnancy, the preterm baby does not get enough time to fully develop and mature in the mother’s womb.

This results in several health issues to the baby such as difficulty in breathing, jaundice, infection, low birth weight, physical disability, retarded brain development, or death before turning 5 years of age of the child. Globally, about 11% of babies are born preterm every year. During pregnancy, the demand for oxygen supply increases. Hemoglobin is responsible for supplying oxygen to baby. Therefore, it is necessary for a mother to maintain right hemoglobin levels between 11-13.5g/dL. If the hemoglobin levels of the mother go below 11g/dL, it leads to the reduction of oxygen supply to the different tissues and organs of the mother and the baby, resulting in developing anemia and high blood pressure. When the blood pressure of the mother rises during pregnancy, the condition is called as gestational hypertension. High blood pressure in the mother causes a baby to come out of the womb due to hypoxia and leads to preterm delivery. So, monitor your hemoglobin levels with TrueHb during your pregnancy to reduce the risks and complications associated with preterm delivery! Stay protected with TrueHb!

Hemoglobin is the building block of Baby IQ: Nurturing Einstein

The growth and intelligence quotient of the mind of the baby start developing in the womb during pregnancy. The IQ development and overall health of the baby in the womb depends on the health conditions of the mother. Though IQ is a complex feature which is influenced by multiple factors such as genetic factors obtained from mother and father, health of the mother during pregnancy, nutrition and diet, stress, and environmental factors. IQ tells about the abilities of the brain like general intelligence and problem-solving skills. IQ of the baby can be affected in the womb of the mother.

Hemoglobin levels play an important role in supporting healthy brain development. If the hemoglobin of the mother reduces to less than 11g/dL during the first trimester of pregnancy, sufficient oxygen supply will not reach the brain tissues of the baby. It leads to impairment of the brain development and functioning of the growing baby in the womb resulting in low IQ of the baby. Further, low hemoglobin of the mother also causes anemia which is further responsible for preterm delivery and low birth weight of the baby. The doctors prescribe iron supplements and good nutritional diet to avoid the risk and complications.

Regular monitoring of hemoglobin levels with TrueHb helps the vibrant mothers to nurture their baby Einsteins of the New World.

Prenatal Care

When you visit a clinic for your regular prenatal check-ups, your doctor will order blood tests. You can now perform your hemoglobin tests at home and can share your results with your doctor.

Assessment of Iron Status

Hemoglobin levels are an indirect indicator of iron status. Low hemoglobin levels may suggest an iron deficiency. Based on your hemoglobin levels, your doctor may recommend iron supplements, or other interventions.

Detecting Anemia

Anemia is a common condition during pregnancy. Hemoglobin monitoring helps you to detect anemia early in pregnancy in order to avoid potential complications.

Medication/Dietary Changes
