Four months pregnant. What sleeping position is good?

Sleeping positions in three stages of pregnancy

1. Early pregnancy 1-3 months: How comfortable?

At the first 1-3 months of pregnancy, the fetal development is still in the primary stage, and the pregnant mother's body has not changed much. Fetal treasure still lives in the maternal pelvic cavity during intrauterine development, so the direct external pressure will not be very heavy, so there is no need to overemphasize sleeping position, as long as it feels comfortable when sleeping.

2. 4-7 months in the first trimester: the key is to protect the stomach.

After the fourth month of pregnancy, the fetus grows rapidly, the uterus grows slowly, the pregnant woman's body becomes heavier, the heart burden increases, the pregnant mother may feel discomfort such as palpitation, and the sleep quality may be greatly affected.

Choosing the right sleeping posture at this stage can reduce the pressure on the heart and give the baby enough room for development. To restrain those unrestrained sleeping positions, we should pay attention to the direct effect of external force on the stomach. It is best to choose the left side position. If you feel your legs are heavy, you can lie flat and raise your legs with a pillow.

3. 8- 10 months in the first trimester: the left sleeping position is safe and comfortable.

In the late pregnancy, the pregnant woman's body becomes heavier, and the development of the fetus needs more nutrition than before. The left sleeping position is most suitable for pregnant women and can bring more benefits to pregnant women.

First, it can increase the blood and nutrients flowing to the placenta; Second, it is conducive to the effective excretion of waste and waste liquid by the kidneys of pregnant mothers, which is conducive to fetal development and pregnant women's health; Third, it can relieve the edema of ankles, feet and hands; Finally, if you can exercise yourself to sleep on the left side early, it will be easier to fall asleep when your stomach gets bigger later.
