Many women are very healthy before pregnancy and rarely experience abnormal symptoms. However, after pregnancy, they may experience some symptoms that did not occur before pregnancy, such as palpitations, which makes many expectant mothers particularly worried, especially those who are pregnant for the first time. So, is palpitations normal at three months of pregnancy?
Pregnant women experiencing palpitations are likely caused by hormonal changes in the body. Generally speaking, during pregnancy, the heart of a pregnant woman needs to bear the burden of the fetus, placenta, and the mother's own circulatory system. The burden on the heart is significantly increased, and symptoms such as palpitations, chest tightness, and shortness of breath are likely to occur. If there is sitting breathing or the need to elevate pillows during sleep, further cardiac examinations such as echocardiography and electrocardiogram are needed to determine if there is a problem with the heart and determine the specific cause.
During pregnancy, it is important to supplement nutrition, pay attention to rest, avoid overwork and staying up late. It is recommended to maintain a good lifestyle and avoid vigorous exercise. It's best to pay attention to rest at home and eat more blood nourishing foods, such as red dates, milk, peanuts, and pork liver. Avoid cold, spicy, and stimulating foods. We suggest that you pay attention to regular prenatal check ups. If you experience discomfort such as decreased blood pressure, please seek medical attention promptly to avoid any adverse effects on the fetus and maintain a happy mood.
