It must be said that Vietnamese dramas have never been more interested and discussed than now. I confess that in the past I only liked foreign films, especially Korean films, but recently I have also been caught up in the movement of “plowing” domestic films because my mother always occupied the prime time television every night to watch Vietnamese movies. Male. So I tried to watch the same. It must be said that Vietnamese movies are now attractive, recorded and live voice, the actors play the role and the dialogue is very ordinary, so it is quite interesting to watch. However, I find there is a bad point in the way the filmmakers build the characters, specifically the mother characters in the movie. Let’s say love and The taste of friendship. The character of Mrs. Bich in ‘Flavor of Friendship’. In order to attract the audience’s attention, the mother characters are typified, even extreme, somewhat foreign to the Vietnamese. First of all, the character of Mrs. Bich in The taste of friendship . Right from the first episodes, I was stunned to see this character constantly beat little Nam, shouting and swearing, sometimes just because of the dumpling. Ms. Bich discriminated between her biological and adopted children very clearly, even intending to abandon little Nam in the middle of the market. Granted, Mrs. Bich is an adoptive mother, different from her heart, so it is difficult to treat Nam like her own child, but living with her since she was a child, perhaps there is no love that treats each other like enemies. Later, when she thought that Nam stood to pay her debt, Mrs. Bich somewhat changed her attitude, but in her mind, she always calculated the loss for her adopted child, even intending to calculate how many years to raise her if she met her biological father again. . This character emerges as a formidable, calculating and unselfish mother. Perhaps the writer succeeded in building such an extreme mother character, but I found that Bich was pushed to the extreme, unrealistic and difficult to accept. The character of Mrs. Sa in ‘Flavor of Friendship’. Also in Flavors of Friendship, I dread another mother, Mrs. Sa – Khanh Thy’s mother. Mrs. Sa also appeared as a cold-blooded, pragmatic mother who tried everything to get her daughter to marry one of her best friend’s two sons, in order to enter a rich family. Despite her daughter’s discomfort, Mrs. Sa constantly pressured, even insulted and slapped her daughter for not listening to her in the campaign to lure men. In recent episodes, when she learned that the eldest son had a new relationship, she was a rich family, and Mrs. Sa urged her daughter to pursue her second son, as long as she did not miss the opportunity to enter the noble house. Every mother wants her child to get a good, rich husband, but the character of Mrs. Sa is pushed too much, unrealistically to attract the attention of viewers. Sometimes I wonder if they are real mother and daughter because the way they treat each other is so bad. The character of the mother becomes scary, making viewers shudder. However, the title of the scariest mother on the screen right now must be for Mrs. Hoai in Let’s say love. Maybe I have to use the word “sick” for this character because of his excessive actions, unreasonable control of husband and children, and misplaced love. Granted, Mrs. Hoai had a reason to hire someone to harm her husband’s girlfriend to miscarry, all the madness was just because her husband was out promiscuous, but it’s difficult to explain the unacceptable actions of this mother character with her husband. children. The character of Mrs. Hoai in ‘Let’s say love’. The culmination was when my daughter was tricked by a married man, Hoai tried to publish the man’s photo online to avenge her daughter. However, the way to “bleach” her daughter after the clip of My being jealous was posted online, it subsided, making the girl even more embarrassed, her family story was once again dug up and commented on by netizens. While her daughter was sad because of the painful first trick in her life, instead of comforting her to help My overcome the shock, Mrs. Hoai chose to bully and intimidate her, making My feel like she was cornered. The imposition on her husband and children is also reflected in how Hoai, because of her high expectations for her second son, forced the boy to do everything he wanted, even to enter the school of his choice. Throughout the many episodes that have aired, this mother character makes me frustrated because of her patriarchy, almost never showing normal care to a wife’s family members. normal mother. Watching the mother characters on Vietnamese TV series currently, I only see a dark, pessimistic and ominous color.

Many vegetable growers now often use pesticides to spray vegetables and fruits to fight pests and promote better crop growth.

Mothers can use spinach to cook baby porridge dishes such as: spinach beef powder, field crab spinach powder, clam spinach porridge … Amaranth has a high germination capacity, grows easily and rarely requires the use of insecticides. Therefore, they are also approved for the list of highly pesticide-free vegetables. Not only is a vegetable that clears heat, amaranth also contains a lot of vitamins, known as the “vegetable of longevity”. Mom can cook amaranth soup with rice or amaranth porridge with rice, which is very good for the baby. Zucchini, pumpkin, melon, gourd are plants that do not have many pests and diseases, so they are less likely to be sprayed with pesticides such as some types of broccoli, cowpea, etc. The drug is also often sprayed on the stem and leaves, so the amount of medicine on the fruit is reduced. And these fruits also have a long shelf life after harvest, so they can reduce drug residues before use. Environmental organization EWG (USA) announced in the annual study, eggplant is classified as a safe food choice, because the amount of protective drug residues on the eggplant skin is very small. One cup of peas provides about 14 grams of fiber, making them one of the highest in fiber vegetables. Peas have very little pesticide residue and are very safe to buy, according to the US Environmental Working Group. Nutritionists recommend feeding babies solid foods at the age of 6 to 8 months. The most common cooking method is steaming or boiling and then mashing it for the baby to eat. Sweet potato vegetables are the top vegetables in the top vegetables to help children quickly get rid of constipation. Coincidentally, this is also the vegetable proven to contain the least amount of pesticides. Because sweet potatoes are easy to grow, the effort to care for them is usually not much, there are few insects. Therefore, growers do not have to worry too much about using pesticides. You can cook sweet potato porridge with pork, beef or shrimp, all delicious and nutritious. Soak them in clean water for about 30-60 minutes before washing. It will help reduce 10 – 60% pesticide residue. Or you can expose it to the sun for 5-10 minutes, which also helps to “eliminate” the amount of residual pesticide very well.

Many mothers after giving birth to 2 children often feel that they have aged a lot in both appearance and personality. Why is that so? First of all, we need to understand that giving birth consumes a lot of energy from a woman’s body. The body is depleted of energy very easily aging. During pregnancy and childbirth, the mother needs to consume a large amount of energy. Sometimes, your daily diet doesn’t provide enough of this energy. Therefore, many mothers after giving birth to a second child become old and weak because of losing too much energy. And there are also many mothers who give birth often gain too much weight, their bodies are bulky, especially their fat waist, belly, and back also make them look old. Most mothers give birth to a second child when they are in their 30s or older. At this time, their body’s metabolic ability is lower. Therefore, they also suffered a decline during this time. Secondly, after giving birth to the second child, the mother’s mentality changes and becomes more mature After the birth of their second child, many mothers begin to have new understandings of their roles. They even automatically classify themselves as older women than other women. They began to change the way they dress to be age-appropriate. After giving birth to the second child, many mothers will not pursue the youthful style anymore. In addition, to raise two children, a mother needs to put in more effort and under more pressure. For two children to grow up to be human, the mother will have to work harder to work, earn money and take care of both children at the same time every day. A mother has to sacrifice a lot of time, money and energy for her children. Mothers who spend too much time and energy on raising children often do not have time to take care of themselves. That is also the reason why their beauty fades over the years, not as young as before. Quynh Trang / According to Sohu

“At that time, I was very fat, often criticized, and also worried about housework and taking care of small children, so I was more stressed, making my attitude always tired, looking old.

Ms. Hoang Embroidery beside her lush plants. Every day, after completing her work at Cam Pha General Hospital, Ms. Hoang Theu returns home and spends time tending to the family’s rooftop garden. For many years, her garden was filled with lush vegetables and fruits, covering the terrace such as lettuce, cabbage, tomatoes, water spinach,….

Understanding that, many sure sisters have invited each other to the kitchen on their mother’s day to cook a delicious meal, the whole family gathered together on this special occasion. However, not all wishes will be successful, embarking on enthusiastic implementation but seeing the results just want to cry. The society has turned to a society that hates the kitchen when many women have produced more products than a disaster. The same food, recipe and ingredients, but through different hands, the finished product is hard to tell. Baking in the oven is one thing, but going to the oven is another. “I think” peanut candy and “I do” peanut candy are sometimes not related at all. The meat stuffed with bitter melon to celebrate the mother’s day is very memorable. Melon with eggs, but definitely eggs to keep the new shell. Instead of letting her reassure her, it made her worry. When my older daughter cooks this way, who else gets married? Making caramel, but somehow it turns into tofu. If you look like this, then who can swallow it? At the market to buy watermelons, I was surprised to look like they knew how to choose them, but I was surprised when I came back.

“Doctor, what can you eat during pregnancy to make your baby smarter?”

“Can eating folic acid make babies smarter? How about DHA?”

Every pregnant mother wants her child to be smart and beautiful. However, what factors will affect the baby’s brain development?

Professor Sun Lizhou from Jiangsu Provincial People’s Hospital once delivered a speech “Risk Factors Affecting Fetal Brain Development during Pregnancy”.

Explained in detail which factors will affect the IQ of the fetus, and even affect the development of the nervous system.

Do you know the period of fetal brain development? From a fertilized egg to a fetus, it undergoes cell proliferation and differentiation. From the B-ultrasound, the baby’s changes can also be observed. But, do you know when the baby’s brain development begins? In fact, at the 4th weekend of the embryo, the baby’s brain bubbles are formed; In the 5th to 6th week of the embryo, the forebrain vesicles form the left and right telomeres; By the 7th week of the embryo, cerebral cortex tissue has occurred; At the 8th week of the embryo, the cerebellum occurs; At the 12th week of the embryo, the cerebellar hemisphere and cerebellar vermis are formed; The weight of the brain at birth is about 25% of that of an adult, and by the age of 2 it increases to about 75% of that of an adult; At the age of 1 year, the DNA level of the brainstem reached the adult standard, and at the age of 4, the DNA level of the forebrain and cerebellum reached 75% of the adult. It can be seen from the figure that the neurodevelopment of the fetus begins in the first trimester and covers the entire fetal period until 3 years after birth. Moreover, the fetal period is an extremely important period for brain development.

What factors affect fetal brain development? The baby communicates with his mother through the placenta in the womb. The outer layer of the placenta is mainly composed of maternal cells, and the inner layer is composed of fetal cells. The state of the mother will affect the state of the placenta, thereby affecting the development of the fetus.

Risk factor 1: weight gain during pregnancy

Too much or too little weight gain during pregnancy can cause adverse health problems for mothers and babies.

The mother may have postpartum weight retention, increase the risk of cesarean section, increase the risk of gestational diabetes and high blood pressure.

The effects on the fetus include: birth volume larger or smaller than gestational age, increased risk of premature birth and childhood obesity risk.

The American Institute of Medicine (IOM) has published a guideline recommendation for weight gain during pregnancy:

In addition, a review of 12 studies proved that obesity during pregnancy is related to the baby’s future cognitive, behavioral, and emotional development. And it will increase the risk of behavioral and cognitive deficits in childhood.

Therefore, the weight gain of pregnant mothers during pregnancy must be reasonable. Don’t just eat and drink just to make your baby grow up and grow stronger; don’t over-control your diet just to keep your body in shape.

2

Risk factor 2: Cesarean section

Caesarean section will also affect the baby’s brain development?

This is a conclusion based on the results of a large number of studies. Cesarean section not only affects the early stage of the baby, but also increases the baby’s risk of developing some diseases in the long term.

Studies have shown that cesarean section is related to autism spectrum disease. It is possible that the oxytocin injected during cesarean section will change the balance of oxytocin in the newborns, thereby affecting the brain development of children.

The picture shows the risk comparison of autism spectrum diseases (ASDs) in newborns with different delivery methods

In addition, due to the birth without the natural birth canal, the ability of the newborn to adapt to the external environment may be reduced after birth, and the early behavioral ability is slightly lower than that of the newborn born naturally. But this is transient, don’t worry too much.

There are also research results that show that cesarean section surgery may damage the intellectual structure of children. Babies born under cesarean section have lower IQs in terms of number breadth and memory/distraction factors than those born naturally.

Therefore, if you can live by yourself or live by yourself!

However, when there are medical indications for cesarean section, it is still necessary to weigh the pros and cons and follow the doctor’s advice.

3

Risk factor 3: Complications during pregnancy

Complications during pregnancy include: gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, intrauterine infection, and others, such as thyroid disease during pregnancy, abnormal psychological conditions during pregnancy.

Although most pregnancy and childbirth can go through smoothly, about 15% of pregnant women will have life-threatening complications during pregnancy. Not only will it threaten the life of the mother, but also affect the normal development of the fetus.

▎Pregnant hypertension:

Studies have shown that pregnancy-induced hypertension can increase the number of fetal brain neuronal apoptosis, cause neuronal damage, and affect the development of the nervous system.

The picture shows the comparison of brain nerve cells between normal fetuses and fetuses with perinatal asphyxia and preeclampsia

In addition, there are prospective follow-up studies that show that high blood pressure during pregnancy can cause about 30% of children to have IQ lower than normal at the age of 4.5.

▎Gestational Diabetes:

Studies have shown that gestational diabetes can cause memory impairment in infants.

A baby born to a mother with gestational diabetes does not have a big difference between the face of the mother and the face of a stranger.

A baby born to a normal mother during pregnancy will attract more attention when seeing the mother’s face.

The picture shows the total average data of 6-month lateral leads for normal babies and babies born to gestational diabetic mothers. The infants in the control group showed larger negative components when facing their mothers or strangers, indicating that the mother’s face attracted more attention of the infants.

In addition, the control group infants had greater differences in memory renewal (PSW) to their mothers or strangers, but there was no significant difference in infants born to gestational diabetic mothers, indicating that memory and cognitive functions were impaired.

At the same time, about 50% of babies born to pregnant women with gestational diabetes will suffer from neonatal hypoglycemia. The longer the period of neonatal hypoglycemia, the greater the impact on brain development.

In addition, studies have shown that hypertension, diabetes, and other metabolic disorders during pregnancy are related to autism and growth retardation in the offspring.

▎Intrauterine infection:

Mothers infected with Toxoplasma gondii, rubella, cytomegalovirus (CMV), herpes simplex virus (HSV) and other microorganisms during pregnancy can cause mental retardation, cerebral palsy, enlarged ventricles and other brain and behavioral abnormalities in the offspring.

Studies have shown that intrauterine infection can cause the baby’s neurological disease and the risk of cerebral palsy to double.

Especially this year’s new crown epidemic, the long-term impact on the baby is still unclear, and further follow-up studies are needed.

▎Thyroid disease:

Thyroid function itself will affect the brain development of the fetus. Hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism during pregnancy need to be corrected in time.

It is best to perform a thyroid function test before pregnancy and follow-up screening during pregnancy.

A prospective birth cohort study showed that the mother suffered from hypothyroidism in the first trimester, and the IQ value of the children born during the school age decreased by 4.3.

4

Risk factor 4: Intrauterine growth restriction (FGR)

Intrauterine growth restriction has a high incidence in developing countries and is a common adverse pregnancy outcome.

Some scholars compared the brains of children with FGR, full-term infants, and premature infants by MRI and found that:

Compared with full-term children, FGR children showed reductions in bilateral temporal lobes, hippocampus, amygdala, right central area, right frontal lobe, left parietal lobe, and basal ganglia.

Compared with preterm infants, children with FGR showed that the amygdala, basal ganglia, thalamus, insula, bilateral angular gyrus, left occipital and parietal lobes, and right central area were all reduced in volume.

The picture shows the MRI comparison of FGR infants, term infants and premature infants

All in all, FGR will cause the volume of brain gray matter to decrease, and the brain volume is lower than that of normal babies. This will affect language communication skills and increase the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders.

summary

There are too many factors that affect fetal brain development during pregnancy!

However, Professor Sun Lizhou also summarized 4 intrauterine environmental factors for pregnant mothers to ensure normal fetal brain development:

Keep away from toxic substances;

Avoid infection with pathogenic bacteria;

Proper nutrition;

Sufficient oxygen.

I wish every little baby come to this world healthy and safe~

Everyone knows that being a mother is a sacred ministry, an infinite happiness for a woman. But frankly speaking, on the journey of 9 months 10 days pregnant, for many people, that feeling of happiness “has not appeared”. Instead, it was a wealth of hardships, fatigue, and physical changes.

For example, for the first time, mothers have to experience morning sickness, discomfort when smelling things that smell and vomit. Then the body began to gain weight, getting heavier and heavier. From about the last 3 months of pregnancy until about to give birth, there continue to be other changes that make pregnant mothers extremely tired.

Here are some of the symptoms that mothers experience when they are about to give birth. It is not at all pleasant at all, but it is showing that the baby in the belly develops healthy, pregnant mothers need not worry too much:

Tension in the abdomen

In the months leading up to the birth, mothers often feel a tight stomach, but it is not painful but quite uncomfortable. Next is the rule, on average 1 hour no more than 10 times there will be pain. This is a very common phenomenon of false contractions, pregnant mothers need not worry too much about it.

From about the last 3 months of pregnancy until about to give birth, there continue to be other changes that make pregnant mothers extremely tired. (Illustration)

The cause of this condition is that nearing the due date, the baby’s head begins to slowly sink into the mother’s pelvis to facilitate a correct and convenient delivery. The mother’s stiffness and spasmodic pains indicate that the baby is “moving on” the correct process to prepare for birth. It shows that the child is developing steadily, healthy

Increase the frequency of going to the toilet at night, to the point that pregnant mothers are afraid to drink water

Mothers who are about to become pregnant in the first and second trimesters also go to the toilet often, and this feeling becomes clearer after entering the third trimester. Because of this, many mothers are afraid to drink water. Even so, they urinate quite a few times during the day and cannot sleep well at night when they often wake up to the toilet.

This condition is also caused by the much larger fetus, pressing on the bladder, creating pressure that makes pregnant women often feel sad to urinate and the bladder cannot store much water due to the cramped space. the baby grows up.

Because of going to the toilet, pregnant mothers are lazy to drink water, it is not good at all. Mothers still have to make sure to drink enough water every day. But don’t drink a large cup right away, but split it up into several times to reduce frequent defecation.

Pain occurs in many parts of the body

Low back pain and pubic pain manifest most clearly in the second trimester. After the fetus moves to a position to prepare for birth, the mother’s pelvis will be under greater pressure, the fetus is low, and the mother’s pubic bone will also be more painful. But that is also the message sent by the fetus “I am going to see you soon”. Therefore, give yourself a little bit of this uncomfortable pain as it is a sign that you are about to give birth.

Increase the amount of secretions

During the third trimester of pregnancy, expectant mothers continue to increase progesterone, leading to more secretion of the mother’s body. However, this translation has normal color and texture. In the event of an unusual or unpleasant color or odor, you should check it promptly.

In addition, pregnant mothers also pay attention to whether the secretions are red or brown or not. If the discharge turns like this, the amniotic fluid is most likely ruptured.

Despite such unpleasant things, this is a sign of the healthy development of the fetus and the coming date of birth. Besides, pregnant mothers also have some things that are more comfortable in the last months of pregnancy.

First of all, pregnant mothers find it easier to breathe when the fetus starts to fall deeper, leaving a wider upper space so it is easier to breathe.

Second, the space around the mother’s stomach is also more spacious in the third trimester due to the deep decline of the fetus, preparing for the birth process. At that time, pregnant mothers will have more appetite and eat more comfortably. However, mothers should also control eating scientifically, not to gain too much weight.

Finally, psychologically, when you know that your baby is healthy and about to be born and meet each other, the mother will feel happy, excited and comfortable dealing with some of these short-term discomfort.

The man I used to love and idolized by his masculinity and maturity suddenly disappeared. In front of my eyes right now is a child, overshadowed by her mother.

When I was studying, I did not go over to his house to play too much, if I had, I only ate for a while and then went home. At that time I just felt that his mother was a meticulous caretaker for her children.

My brother and I went home to light our hometown, and went by motorbike. Before leaving, she reminded them to go out to wear scarves, gloves, and full hats because it was very cold.

That night, we came out from the countryside. As soon as I stepped inside the house, the first thing she reminded me was to go to the kitchen to get him a glass of warm water instead of asking if they were tired.

With the meal, she cooks well and reminds me well, I try to learn to cook according to the taste of the South, later I look after my husband.

I feel, she considers Nam the center of the universe, everyone has the responsibility to serve him attentively.

However, I did not think deeply, but only felt funny inside.

When I got home as a bride I was really disillusioned. My mother-in-law not only takes care of Nam like a child, but also loves him too much.

Men over 30 years old, but at 7:00 a.m., his mother went up to the room to knock on the door, urging her to brush her teeth and wash her face. The clothes I ironed the night before, she still did it the morning again, constantly criticizing the daughter-in-law for being careless.

Nam likes to eat shrimp but has to peel, my mother-in-law buys 1kg, peels it clean, takes off her head, and canned it for her son. Meals, Nam always has its own portion.

Before, every time he dated, Nam took me to eat raw salmon, and eat raw beef… I’ve never seen him say he can’t eat it.

However, when I cook or buy, my mother-in-law always tells Nam not to eat raw food.

I told my mother-in-law, I still saw him go out to eat normally. She immediately sang the song that her son had to please his daughter-in-law, with great respect.

“From a young age, he only likes to eat food that his mother cooks, poisonous things like that, you should never buy it again” – a gentle saying of her mother-in-law but the feeling of weighing a thousand tons. It is not only her reminder, but also her command.

I confided to Nam, he just kept quiet and then turned to other things. Occasionally, I just say a sentence: “Come on, dear, mom is old, it’s nothing to please her”.

Once I went on a business trip with my colleagues, the plane landed at 11 o’clock at night. After that, the group took the car from the airport to the office.

Nam actively texted that he would pick me up at the hospital, but half an hour later his mother-in-law called and told me to take a taxi back because he had a fever. I was a bit down, my heart started to panic.

If Nam did not call, I would go home by myself but I saw that my husband was interested, so I agreed to let him come. I don’t understand why, he got sick so quickly.

When he got home, Nam opened the door, his health was normal, he showed no signs of serious illness as announced by my mother-in-law.

My mother-in-law probably guessed my daughter-in-law, calling me out to scold: “It’s late at night, I called Nam to pick him up, along the dangerous traffic road. Mother is also alone, taking care of her family, she doesn’t rely on anyone “.

I work in the hospital, stay on night duty, and take a rest the next morning. My mother-in-law grumbled, asking me to find another job.

In her opinion, Nam makes money, so my job is to take care of him. In the morning, she cooks for her husband, ensures his health, sees him off to work. 4:30 pm must be present at the rice house.

After the meal, the fruit must be peeled to invite her husband. Fruits such as tangerines and oranges must also be peeled.

A series of regulations, rules … given by my mother-in-law, makes me really stuffy.

Meanwhile, Nam always obediently obeyed his mother. He never had his own stance. Always, mom says anything right.

I proposed to live separately or divorce but Nam did not agree. He blamed me petty, selfish.

I am depressed, do not need to cultivate a home anymore. Please give me advice!
