The length of the human intestine is approximately 8 to 10 meters, during which there are many folds. Although there are daily bowel movements, feces still exist inside these folds, which naturally turn into feces over time and pose a threat to human health. So, what should pregnant women eat to defecate?
Pregnant women who have bedwetting can eat more fiber rich foods in their daily lives, such as beans, yogurt, and apples. After finishing meals every day, it is advisable to do some physical exercise to keep the gut microbiota in a normal state and avoid aging of the intestines. If constipation is severe or there is bleeding, it is recommended to follow the doctor's advice and take medication.
In fact, there are many ways to eliminate constipation, and it is not recommended to blindly take medication to avoid significant impact on oneself and the fetus. After waking up every morning, drinking a cup of warm water can effectively promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and is also beneficial for promoting bowel movements. Alternatively, adding some salt to warm water can reduce gastrointestinal absorption and directly reach the rectum, resulting in a more significant effect.
In addition, pregnant women can also drink some honey water appropriately, but they should be careful not to drink it in the morning. It is recommended to drink it before going to bed. Drinking a cup of honey water before going to bed can effectively moisturize the intestines and promote bowel movements. You can defecate after waking up the next day. Only when the bowel movements gradually become smooth, the bedridden stool will naturally disappear.
