As the old saying goes, premature birth is not alive for seven and eight is not alive, is there a sc

Under normal circumstances, they are all conceived in October and given birth once they are born, as long as there is no abnormality in the fetus during pregnancy, there will be no major problems, but if it is said to be born prematurely, it will involve the saying of "seven lives and eight are not alive".

I can relate to this because my daughter was born prematurely at just eight months.

At that time, I was very naïve, I didn't realize that premature birth was a terrible thing, until my daughter was born safely, my mother told me, at that time, she was frightened, because there is a folk saying that "seven out of eight can't be done", but she can only hold this in her stomach, people in their time are particularly superstitious about this, I didn't think so, thinking that this is a false statement.

Later, out of curiosity, I asked a friend of mine who is engaged in obstetrics and gynecology about this question, and she surprised me that the folk saying "seven live and eight do not live" is not groundless, but has a scientific basis.

Literally, the survival rate of children born in seven months is higher than that of children born in eight months, and it stands to reason that babies born in eight months stay in the mother's body for an extra month and should be healthier, but why, babies born in eight months have a higher mortality rate than seven months?

Mothers who have given birth to babies should know that the baby is in the mother's body for ten months, and there will be changes every month, when pregnancy reaches seven months, the baby's lungs also begin to develop, and the active substance will appear on the surface, slowly, the active substance will gradually rise, this active substance is mainly to maintain the stability of the alveolar size, which has a very important role, to put it bluntly, the baby reaches seven months in the mother's body, and the conditions for survival are met.

If this is the case, why is the survival rate lower at eight months?

Because, when the fetus is eight months old, the active substance on the surface of the lungs is slowly declining, so the compliance of the lungs will also decline, therefore, it will affect the survival rate of the baby, of course, this situation is only for the previous medical technology was not developed.

Nowadays, medical technology is so advanced that the term "seven live and eight do not live" no longer holds, and on the whole, the survival rate of eight-month-old babies will still be higher than that of seven-month-old babies.

However, not everyone can understand the reason for this, so this statement has been circulating in the countryside, and some people say that if it is the same eight months, the girl is generally fine, because the life is big, and the boy's words are not easy to say, and the most important thing is that some people take a special example, add oil and vinegar to describe it, one to ten, ten to hundred, after a long time, everyone believes it is true.

It makes sense that the main reason for the seven-month preterm baby is the mother or placenta, and the fetus itself is relatively healthy, so it is easy to survive, while the eight-month premature baby is mainly caused by the fetus itself, and the chance of survival is small.

Seven live and eight don't live"It is a saying that is widely circulated among the people. This means that once a pregnancy is born prematurely, a premature newborn born at 7 months can survive, while a premature newborn born at 8 months is not alive. There is no scientific justification.

There is no scientific basis for such a statement: Premature babies are relatively weak, the body's mechanisms and functions are not fully developed, and we need to take care of them Given that the medical level is so developed that the mortality rate of premature babies is greatly reduced.

Now there is no such statement, and now the medical level is getting better and better, and premature babies can have a good survival rate as long as they are standardized. Premature babies can develop smoothly if they are well cared for, and the survival rate of premature babies is very high. Nowadays, medical technology is very advanced.

It means that premature babies are easy to survive at seven months of birth and not easy to survive at eight months, which is not scientifically justified. The longer the pregnancy is in the mother's womb, the closer the gestational age of the normal term infant, the greater the survival rate and the likelihood of returning to normal life. In addition, the more early intervention and care are in place, and the more fully parents and hospitals cooperate, the more likely it is that premature babies will return to normal life.

There is no scientific basis for the so-called seven live and eight not live, that is, the 7-month-old baby is easy to live, and the 8-month-old baby is not easy to live, which is just a folk saying, premature babies can develop smoothly, and there is no need to be too nervous.

It is easy to survive at 7 months, but it is not easy to survive at 8 months, which is just a clear statement, and medicine was not developed at that time. Yes, as long as the premature baby is fully developed, it can grow very well, and medicine is still very developed.
