Reasons for bloating and farting in pregnant women

Many women have many obvious abnormal symptoms during pregnancy. If it is normal, many minor symptoms are not easy to detect, but pregnant women can find them, because after all, you are not alone after pregnancy, and any abnormality may threaten the fetus. Many pregnant women often say that they feel bloated all the time, and it is easy to fart after bloating. So what is the cause of this symptom of pregnant women?

There are many reasons for abdominal bloating and flatulence, such as poor digestive function, chronic gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease and peptic ulcer. For ordinary patients, they can go to a regular Chinese medicine hospital for diagnosis and then use decoctions for treatment. However, if the patient is pregnant, she cannot take decoctions or other medications, otherwise it will affect the growth and development of the fetus. Therefore, the most important thing is to rely on dietary adjustments. Only in severe cases can she take non-toxic drugs for treatment according to the advice of a gynecologist.

For chronic gastric disease, 30% depends on treatment, and 70% depends on care. People with chronic stomach problems, especially pregnant women with cold stomach problems (characterized by fear of cold in the stomach, preference for warmth and pressure, and comfort from drinking hot water), should pay special attention to keeping themselves warm to prevent the abdomen from catching cold and triggering or aggravating the old disease. If necessary, they can also use a hot water bottle to keep warm. There are "eight requirements" for the diet of patients with stomach problems: light, less (appropriate amount), slow, clean, soft, warm, fresh, and refined (crude fiber food is indeed beneficial for cancer prevention, and healthy people can eat more of it, but it is difficult to digest and will reduce the body's absorption and utilization of minerals, so patients with stomach problems should eat less of it). At the same time, you must develop regular eating habits and avoid overeating and severe picky eating.

Prevention of flatulence in pregnant women:

1. Do not eat spicy food, such as ginger, garlic, onion, pepper, etc.;

2. Eat small meals frequently and choose easily digestible food;

3. Drink a glass of water after getting up in the morning and take in enough water every day, that is, 2000 ml/day;

4. Develop the habit of regular bowel movements;

5. Massage your abdomen 2-3 times a day, starting from the lower right abdomen and massaging in a clockwise direction, which can also relieve bloating;

6. Do some whole-body exercises or gymnastics for pregnant women to promote intestinal peristalsis.

Such a phenomenon is likely to make many pregnant women panic and worry. In fact, such a phenomenon is not necessarily abnormal. Pregnant women should remain calm when facing this symptom. The above reasons show that such a phenomenon is usually normal. If it is indeed abnormal, then there will be more adverse phenomena. Such abnormal reasons should be treated in time. If not, then you should rest assured to raise your children and maintain a good attitude.
