In this informative feature by The Asian Parent, consultant obstetrician Dr Harvard Lin outlines the dangers of high heat exposure during pregnancy and its potential complications. He explains that extreme temperatures can increase the risk of dehydration, heat exhaustion, preterm labour, and even fetal distress. Dr Lin stresses the importance of hydration, staying indoors during peak heat hours, wearing breathable clothing, and recognising warning signs such as dizziness, rapid heartbeat, or reduced fetal movement. He encourages pregnant women to take heat risks seriously and seek medical attention promptly if symptoms arise, especially during hotter seasons.
