Pregnant women need to pay attention to many things, such as protecting their bodies and conducting regular prenatal check ups. If any abnormalities are found, the cause should be identified early and targeted treatment should be carried out. For example, if some pregnant women feel bloating in their stomachs, what is the cause of bloating in their stomachs?
1. Normal reactions during pregnancy: In early pregnancy, female hormone secretion undergoes significant changes. Elevated progesterone can lead to weakened gastrointestinal motility, reduced gastric acid secretion, decreased digestive function, and bloating in the stomach. In mid pregnancy, the uterus becomes larger and the intestines are easily compressed, which can lead to weakened gastrointestinal function and bloating in the stomach. These are all normal pregnancy states, pregnant women don't need to worry too much.
2. Decreased physical activity: Many women during pregnancy consume nutrient rich foods and reduce their physical activity for the health of the fetus. Lack of exercise can also lead to bloating in the stomach.
3. Maldigestion: Some pregnant women have poor digestion. If they eat too much difficult to digest food, it can lead to malnutrition and symptoms of bloating in the stomach.
4. Eating too fast: In addition, some pregnant women eat too fast or inhale a large amount of gas during meals, which can easily lead to bloating in the stomach. So pregnant women should chew carefully and slowly, not gulp down food, to avoid exacerbating the discomfort of bloating.
