Women often experience various physical discomforts during pregnancy, as their weight gradually increases with the passage of months, and the various nutrients provided by the mother to the fetus also increase accordingly. So various discomforts of pregnant women also come one after another, such as some pregnant women experiencing leg soreness and swelling. What's going on?
Firstly, the increase in negative weight leads to. With the increase of months, the weight of pregnant women also increases, and the weight on their calves gradually increases. Muscles may experience strain, and blood circulation may be slower than normal, leading to the accumulation of metabolic products and muscle tension. In addition, during the later stages of pregnancy, pregnant women may have a heavy body and lack muscle exercise, resulting in soreness and swelling in their calves.
Secondly, the increase in blood volume leads to. In the late stage of pregnancy, due to the enlargement of the uterus, the blood vessels in the lower limbs are compressed, and the venous return of the lower limbs is obstructed. This often leads to swelling of the lower legs, which stimulates the surrounding muscles and slows down blood circulation, as well as causing leg soreness and swelling. After three months, the fetus begins to grow bones, and the absorption of maternal calcium gradually increases. If pregnant women do not supplement calcium in a timely manner, calcium deficiency can also cause leg soreness.
It should be noted that women's diet during pregnancy must be reasonable. Eat more calcium rich foods, such as milk, eggs, and soy products. When necessary, it is also necessary to eat some vitamin D and calcium to supplement calcium absorption. Fruits and vegetables can supplement the required vitamin C and improve immunity. Also, be sure to keep warm and avoid getting cold. Take a walk after meals every day to increase blood circulation, which can have a certain relieving effect on leg soreness.
