Many women who are pregnant for the first time or becoming mothers are relatively unfamiliar with everything related to pregnancy. Due to physical reasons, many women may have different reactions after pregnancy. Some women may have symptoms of lower abdominal pain after pregnancy. So, let's find out if lower abdominal pain is normal after pregnancy?
After pregnancy, if there is a slight pain in the lower abdomen, it is a normal symptom. In the early stages of pregnancy, the uterus will gradually enlarge, and the ligaments of the uterus will be pulled, causing a dull pain. After pregnancy, the fetus will enlarge and the uterus will also enlarge, which will compress the inferior vena cava and obstruct blood flow, resulting in a slight pain in the lower abdomen.
But if the lower abdominal pain is more obvious and accompanied by a hardening of the stomach, and if there is this pain accompanied by vaginal bleeding, then it needs to be taken seriously. This may be a symptom caused by threatened miscarriage, and there should be a risk of miscarriage or premature birth, or it may be pseudocontractions, which need to be observed and distinguished carefully.
If it is a false uterine contraction, the pain time will not be regular, and there will be a slight feeling of heaviness. You can gently massage the abdomen to relieve this symptom. During this period, special attention should be paid to observing changes in fetal heart rate. If both the fetus and fetal heart rate are developing normally, no special treatment is generally required.
