Regular bowel movements are of great significance to human health, but the diet during pregnancy is more nutritious and meticulous. In addition, many pregnant women do not work often, so the frequency of bowel movements will be relatively low, which can make pregnant women feel a little annoyed. So, what should be done if they eat too little during pregnancy?
Eating too little during pregnancy may be related to the pregnant woman's own constitution. Some pregnant women have better digestion and absorption, so eating too much can also be consumed. However, constipation may also occur. If constipation occurs, the correct way should be taken to deal with it to avoid serious impact on health.
To prevent constipation during pregnancy, pregnant women should drink more water regularly. After waking up in the morning, they can drink a glass of warm water or honey water on an empty stomach. Drinking water has a good detoxification effect, which can effectively promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, make feces soft, and help with bowel movements. Every morning and after meals, it is easy for women to feel the urge to defecate, so they can squat in the bathroom during this time. Regardless of whether they feel the urge to defecate or not, over time they will develop the habit of defecating on time.
In addition, it is best to develop a good habit of appropriate exercise during pregnancy, and not lie in bed for a long time, which is beneficial for childbirth. In terms of diet, fiber intake can be increased, such as vegetables, fruits, and coarse grains. However, attention should also be paid to avoiding overeating. Eating too much can easily cause gastrointestinal burden and lead to excessive nutrition, which is difficult for the body to absorb and not beneficial for oneself and the fetus.
