We all know that the body of a pregnant woman is very special during pregnancy. During this period, we should not only take care of her body, but also her mood. Many pregnant women will suffer from depression or prenatal anxiety because of pregnancy. Pregnant women in summer want to sleep on a cool mat because they can't stand the hot weather. So, can pregnant women sleep on a cool mat? Let me introduce it to you below

Can pregnant women sleep on a cool mat in summer?

Pregnant women can sleep on cool mats in summer. Pregnant mothers worry about the effects of sleeping on cool mats because they are afraid of catching a cold or having uterine contractions caused by being too cold. However, if they are in a high temperature environment for a long time, and most pregnant women like coolness and are afraid of heat, they have a fast metabolism, produce a lot of heat, release a lot of energy, and sweat easily. If they keep covering themselves up, they are also prone to heatstroke. Heatstroke has a great impact on pregnant women.

Does a pregnant woman sleeping on a cool mat have any effect on the fetus?

Just keep warm and there will be no impact. In particular, rattan mats will not have any adverse effects on the fetus.

Sleeping on a cool mat by pregnant women will not have a direct impact on the fetus. It is only when the pregnant woman wants to stay cool at night and does not pay attention to keeping warm while sleeping on the cool mat that she may catch a cold, which may be harmful to the fetus. It is recommended that pregnant women wear thin cotton long clothes and trousers when sleeping on a cool mat, and keep their abdomen warm at night as long as they do not feel cold.

How to sleep on a cool mat when pregnant

1. Use new mats as little as possible. It is best to use an old mat or put a layer of cotton cloth on the new mat.

2. Keep the mat clean and hygienic. Newly purchased mats and before using them for the first time each year must be disinfected at high temperature, washed with boiling water, and dried in the sun to kill the mites and their eggs.

3. The cool mat that pregnant women sleep on should be washed and dried frequently with hot water. It should be washed once a day and dried once a week. After getting wet with urine, it should be cleaned and dried in time.

4. The room temperature should not be too low when sleeping on a cool mat. The air conditioner should be kept at 26 degrees Celsius, and it is especially not suitable to turn on the air conditioner for a long time. Remove the cool mat in time when you catch a cold or the weather turns cold.

5. When sleeping on a cool mat at night, make sure to keep warm and cover yourself with a small blanket to prevent catching a cold.

What kind of sleeping mat is good for pregnant women

You can choose rattan mat.

The mats used in summer are generally bamboo mats and rattan mats. It is not recommended to use bamboo mats, as they can freeze people, especially when the air conditioner is turned on. The bamboo mats are icy cold and can easily cause pregnant women to catch a cold. Moreover, ordinary bamboo mats are very hard and not very comfortable.

Rattan mats are relatively much better. Existing rattan mats are generally woven from pure natural plant fibers, 100% natural materials. The woven rattan mats are soft and smooth, breathable and skin-friendly, have a unique fragrance, and are breathable, cool but not icy, making them very suitable for pregnant women.
