Patient's question:
Need help from a gynecologist, thank you. I'm 8 months pregnant and have been feeling fine without any abnormalities. But today, I feel my mouth is very dry and I really want to drink water. What could be the reason? Besides, I've been feeling like my breathing is stuffy tonight, as if I've inhaled dust. What's wrong? Will it affect the baby?Doctor's answer:
In the late stage of pregnancy, you may feel dry mouth and have a strong desire to drink water. Additionally, you might experience discomfort in your nose, which could be related to dry weather. You should try to drink as much water as possible and maintain a well-ventilated and humid environment indoors. Rest well in the late stage of pregnancy. Adopt a left lateral position. Sexual activity is strictly prohibited. If the symptoms do not improve, you can visit the hospital for an ultrasound examination to avoid any impact on the fetus.
