Q

Estrogen - inhibits what? (ester fights with fsh and leutenant)

A

Secreted by the corpus luteum until the placenta takes over.

Inhibits secretion of FSH and LH from anterior pituitary suppressing ovulation

Stimulates growth of the maternal tissue: uterus, breast tissue, genitalia,

Relaxes joints and ligaments

Increases vascularity

25
Q

Progesterone (progeria is friends with endo)

A

continue the build up of the endometrium for implantation of the egg

26
Q

Hormones that effect changes during pregnancy (just 3, fo sho)

A

Serum Prolactin:
Oxytocin:
Human chorionic somatomammotropin:
(human placental lactogen):

27
Q

uterus - do we get more cells with growth?

A

Amenorrhea
Endometrium support growth of embryo/fetus
Increase in elastic properties (we don’t get more cells, they just stretch***)
Hagar’s sign (softening of cervix)
increase in uterine blood flow
Braxton Hicks Contractions (false contractions, last 30 sec, sporadic)
Quickening (feel baby’s movement)

28
Q

uterus can go from (how many ml)

A

10 ml to 5000 ml

29
Q

vagina

A

Increase Vaginal mucosa
Loosening of connective tissue
Lengthening of the vaginal vault
Increase vascularity
Chadwick sign 6-8 weeks (blue cervix, bagina, vulva)

30
Q

vagina - bacteria - 2nd most bacteria in body

A

Leukorrhea
Acidic: susceptibility to yeast infections
Mucus plug -Operculum

31
Q

breasts - when do they get larger?

A

become larger, 2nd & 3rd Tri – Mammary glands grow, Increased pigmentation, Montgomery tubercles (dots on areolas) more pronounced, Increase vascularity

32
Q

cardiovascular system - blood volume what?

A

Increase in blood volume by 40-50%,

33
Q

cardiac hypertrophy - most women develop what?

A

Displaced by the enlarging uterus which pushes up on the diaphragm.
95% women develop systolic murmurs, palpitations and arrhythmias.

34
Q

PHYSIOLOGICAL ANEMIA OF
PREGNANCY

A

Increase of blood volume > Increase in RBC’s
< 11 g/dl in the first or third trimester OR
< 10.5 in the 2nd trimester OR a HCT of 32% the woman is considered anemic.

35
Q

SUPINE HYPOTENSION
- put a pillow where?

A

(Inferior Vena Cava Syndrome) uterus pushes down on spine and cuts off blood flow. pregnant women should not lie on back bc it cuts off blood supply to the baby. or put a pillow under one hip.

36
Q

respiratory system

A

Increase oxygen consumption (20%-40%)
Increase RR
Diaphragm pushed up (4 cm)
Chest expands more – rib cage relaxes (estrogen), decreased resistance (progesterone)
Increase of CO2 blown off
Increase of the secretion of bicarbonate from the Kidneys
Capillary engorgement

37
Q

the respiratory system - what is the main change? (respiration can change my shape!)

A

Increase in tidal volume (30%-40%)
Vital capacity unchanged
Inspiratory volume increased
Expiratory volume decreased
Total lung capacity unchanged
***but the main change w/ respiratory is the shape

38
Q

renal pelvis

A

The smooth-muscle walls of the ureters undergo hyperplasia and hypertrophy and muscle tone relaxation. The ureters elongate, become tortuous, and form single or double curves.

39
Q

the renal system

A

Increase in blood flow to the kidneys
Increase in GFR of the kidneys
Increase in urination
Urine production
Pressure from the uterus
Pressure of the uterus on the ureters put women at greater risk of urinary stasis and pyelonephritis. (GFR increases 40-60%)

40
Q

neonate - how many days? (neo 28 days later)

A

first 28 days of life, baby after that

41
Q

fetus

A

ineutro

42
Q

GI SYSTEM
Ensure adequate nutrition for embryo/fetus

A

“Morning Sickness” (6-12 weeks)
 GI Peristalsis (decreased parastalysis due to progesterone = relaxes it)
Hemorrhoids
Ptyalism (increase in saliva)
Bleeding gums (increased gingavitis)
Heart Burn (pressure and progesterone)
gallstones

43
Q

integumentary

A

Increase in melanotropin – increase areas of pigmentation
Chloasma (Melasma)
Striae Gravidarum (stretch marks)
Linea Nigra (line from belly button to public bone)

44
Q

the muscle skeletal system

A

Shifting center of gravity
Increase lordosis
Loosening of the ligaments of the pubic symphysis and sacroiliac joints.
Muscles of the abdomen stretch and lose tone. Can lead to diastasis recti abdominis. (muscles in stomach move apart)

45
Q

immune system - which one goes down during pregnancy?

A

innate - phagocytosis - born with it. adapative - ***It keeps maternal body from rejecting fetus. Adapative goes down during pregnancy.

46
Q

nutrition - how many extra calories?

A

Increased requirements of nutrition are helped with prenatal vitamins and Folic acid. Increase dietary intake of 300 calories a day over the 1800-2200 calorie daily recommendation.

47
Q

Goodell Sign (good and soft)

A

softening of cervix

48
Q

A

Hegars sign (softening of lower uterine segment)

50
Q

braxton hicks (brighton is false)

A

Braxton Hicks (false contractions)

51
Q

ballotment (bounce on ballotment)

A

Ballotment (touch cervix and fetus bounces up)
