and 2020. Method This paper is based on the clinical data from This
paper makes a detailed analysis of the problems that can arise because
of special circumstances related with delivery history, personal
physical symptoms, anxiety index, adverse complications as well as
neonatal birth weight. Result Comparing with the same period between
2019 and 2020, maternal age(32.12±5.32vs31.01±4.21, P<0.05)
and the ratio of macrosomia(12.10%vs2.53%)are increasing steadily.
Meanwhile, times of prenatal visits (10.49±2.15vs10.89±1.81,
P<0.05) and score of PHQ-9(1.46±2.09vs4.96±1.38,
P<0.05)are to fall significantly。 Conclusion It is helpful
to relieve the negative emotion of fear and anxiousness for the pregnant
women if they can be encouraged and soothed by social support. The
leading cause why regular checkups are decreasing is due to the fear of
the epidemic and the transport restrictions, which, in return, may
result in a lack of effective management in fetal weight. The COVID-19
had no giant effect on the third trimester of pregnant women. Government
as well as obstetric practitioners should strengthen the education of
fetal weight management during the pregnancy. Keywords Pregnancy;
COVID-19; obstetric complications; anxiety Tweetable abstract The
