Can pregnant women with a cold have prenatal examinations?

Patient's question:

It's time for the prenatal check-up again, but recently my partner has caught a cold and isn't feeling well. My partner is now about five and a half months pregnant. I'm wondering if it's still possible to have a prenatal check-up after catching a cold.

Doctor's answer:

Due to the fact that a pregnant woman's immune system is relatively weakened during pregnancy, it is likely to catch a cold again. At this time, you should not be too anxious. After making appropriate adjustments, you can recover quickly. You need to take preventive measures. Dress appropriately to protect yourself. In terms of diet, eat more foods rich in vitamins and protein. During pregnancy, it is important to digest calcium and trace elements in a timely manner to avoid interfering with the fetal development.
