When women experience menstrual cramps, they usually use a hot water bottle to apply to their stomach, which has a pain relieving effect. After becoming pregnant, women may also experience abdominal pain, so pregnant women also want to use a hot water bottle to apply hot compress to the abdomen as before. Can women use a hot water bottle to compress their stomach during early pregnancy?
During early pregnancy, women can use a hot water bottle to apply to their stomach. However, the temperature of the hot water bottle should not be too high, otherwise it may have adverse effects on the fetus. In addition, the time for applying hot compress to the stomach should not be too long, and it is not advisable to apply hot compress to the stomach after the middle of pregnancy.
If the hot water bag used by pregnant women to apply hot compress to the stomach is very hot, it can be harmful to the fetus. This not only affects the growth and development of the baby, but also accelerates the blood flow in the uterus, leading to the occurrence of threatened miscarriage. If there are symptoms such as abdominal pain and bleeding when applying hot compress to the stomach, it is necessary to seek medical attention immediately.
If pregnant women use electronic products such as Re Bao to compress their stomachs, it is likely to have a negative impact on the growth of the fetus due to electromagnetic waves. Because in the early stages of pregnancy, the fetus is still very fragile, and if it is adversely affected, the harm it may suffer will be greater. Pregnant women should keep their abdomen at room temperature. If they feel cold, they can use hot water to wash their feet, which has a good effect on dispelling the cold.
