morning sickness

Reason: During pregnancy, due to the change of hormone level, early pregnancy reactions such as chills, dizziness, salivation, fatigue, lethargy, loss of appetite, taste change, aversion to oil, nausea, vomiting in the morning occurred about 6 weeks after menopause. It may be accompanied by emotional changes, which is a normal phenomenon. A small number of precious mothers disappear around 12 weeks of pregnancy, and the early pregnancy reaction may last for the whole pregnancy.

Relief methods: light diet, avoid spicy fried and irritating food, and eat a small amount of meals. Avoid fasting and eat some biscuits or bread before getting up in the morning. Eat more foods rich in vitamin B6, such as sunflower seeds, pistachios, plums, bananas and avocados.

Family members should pay more attention to companionship, do things that they like and are suitable for pregnancy, such as severe morning sickness, and need to seek medical attention in time.

lumbago

Cause: Weight gain during pregnancy leads to increased muscle burden on spine and back. The uterus enlarges and the body's center of gravity changes. In order to maintain the balance of the body, the muscles in the back of the lumbar spine are overstretched. The secretion of relaxin during pregnancy leads to the relaxation of ligaments and joints in the spine and pelvis. During pregnancy, the rectus abdominis is separated to both sides, and the dorsal muscle compensates for long-term load. Insufficient calcium intake.

Relieving methods: Change body position and posture frequently, avoid standing for a long time, sitting for a long time, bending over and lifting heavy objects, and give a support to the waist when sitting or lying down. Eat more foods rich in calcium, such as bean products and dairy products. If necessary, supplement calcium according to the doctor's advice. Wear low-heeled (below 3cm), soft and comfortable shoes for proper exercise, increase the strength of waist and back muscles, and pay attention to controlling excessive weight gain and keeping warm. You can apply local hot compress or massage to relieve muscle fatigue. If the pain worsens or persists, go to the hospital for help.

Pain of pubic symphysis

Reason: The secretion of relaxin during pregnancy relaxes the joints and ligaments at the pubic symphysis. Excessive weight gain during pregnancy, twin pregnancy and other factors lead to pelvic overload. There are problems such as pelvic relaxation, rotation and inclination before pregnancy.

Relieving method: Eat a reasonable diet to avoid excessive weight gain. Pay attention to rest, avoid standing for a long time, spread your legs and squat; Avoid putting weight on one leg when standing. Abdominal straps or pelvic straps can be used to reduce the load on the pelvis. When resting in bed, you can put a pillow between your knees and massage locally. If the pain is unbearable or you can't walk, you need to seek the help of a doctor in time.

constipation

Causes: The amount of exercise during pregnancy is reduced, and progesterone is secreted in large quantities during pregnancy. The enlarged uterus oppresses the intestine, which leads to the slow gastrointestinal peristalsis. Unbalanced diet, such as excessive intake of high-protein and high-fat foods and insufficient intake of vegetables rich in dietary fiber.

Relieving method: drink a cup of warm water on an empty stomach in the morning, eat less spicy food and avoid dry stool. Eat more foods rich in cellulose, such as corn, celery and strawberries. Get into the habit of defecating regularly. Moderate exercise, such as ground walking, anal contraction, yoga during pregnancy, etc. Avoid sedentary.

leg cramps

Cause: The enlarged uterus compresses the inferior vena cava and stands for a long time, which leads to poor blood circulation of lower limbs. Local cold, local muscle spasm, insufficient calcium intake.

Relief method: When leg cramps, hook your toes, bend your knees and relax, and gently knead the cramped muscles. Eat more foods rich in calcium, and you can supplement calcium according to your doctor's advice. Avoid holding a posture for a long time, and pay attention to changing sleeping positions when sleeping. Keep warm, wear loose and breathable pants and socks, and choose low-heeled shoes.

Chest tightness, palpitation, shortness of breath

Causes: The uterus is enlarged, the diaphragm is raised, the lungs and heart are compressed, and breathing is affected. During pregnancy, the blood volume increases, the circulatory load increases, and the heart rate increases. Stay in a confined space with no ventilation for too long. Pathological factors such as fatigue or emotional excess, such as pregnancy complicated with heart disease, pregnancy-induced hypertension and so on.

Relief method: Take a rest immediately if you feel unwell, and pay attention to keep indoor air circulation. Avoid fatigue or overexcitation.

Leucorrhea increased

Reason: The secretion of estrogen and progesterone increased after pregnancy. Vaginal secretions will increase and turn yellow, which is a normal physiological phenomenon.

Relief methods: wear loose cotton underwear, pay attention to personal hygiene, clean vulva every day and change underwear. Don't take a sitz bath or vaginal lavage, and use condoms in the same room. If the secretion increases, accompanied by vulvar cancer itching, fishy smell, yellow-green or bloody bean dregs or foam-like, you should seek medical advice in time.

oedema

Reason: During pregnancy, the blood volume increased greatly, and the water in the blood infiltrated into the stroma. During pregnancy, hormones secreted by placenta and aldosterone secreted by adrenal gland increase, which leads to retention of water and sodium pigs and decreased urination. The enlarged uterus compresses the inferior vena cava, which leads to the obstruction of venous return of lower limbs. Pathological factors, such as pregnancy-induced hypertension or kidney disease.

Relief methods: You should take off your rings and bracelets in the early pregnancy, wear loose clothes and shoes and socks, and advocate a light and low-salt diet (the daily salt intake should not exceed 6g).

When resting in bed, properly pad the lower limbs. Regular physical examination, monitoring blood pressure, weight and urine protein. If the edema is obvious or does not subside after rest, you should see a doctor and do some leg stretching exercises appropriately.
