Will I feel pain in my lower left abdomen during pregnancy?

If the pregnant woman is healthy and has no disease, she will not feel abdominal pain during the third month of pregnancy. If you feel pain in your lower left abdomen during pregnancy, you should pay attention to some things. Paying attention to your condition during pregnancy is not only for your own health but also for the health of your future baby. This is the responsibility of all parents in the world.

Abdominal pain during pregnancy

1. Physiological abdominal pain ① When the pregnancy is about 4 months, the uterus enlarges and the round ligament of the uterus is stretched, and many expectant mothers will feel some abdominal pain. This type of pain is mostly located on one or both sides of the uterus in the lower abdomen, and is referred pain, dull pain or lack thereof. The pain becomes more obvious when walking a long distance or changing body position. Expectant mothers don’t need to worry, the symptoms can be relieved by resting in bed more. ② Exerting too much force during sexual intercourse in the second trimester can also cause abdominal pain in pregnant women.

2. Pathological abdominal pain In the second trimester of pregnancy, the baby gradually grows and the intra-abdominal pressure of the expectant mother also increases. If the expectant mother's esophageal hiatus (the hole through which the esophagus descends to connect to the stomach) widens, "esophageal hiatal hernia" may occur, causing abdominal pain. At this time, abdominal pain is often accompanied by symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, chest pain, acid reflux, and hiccups. The incidence of hiatal hernia during pregnancy is about 30-50%, and the symptoms are sometimes more obvious in the late pregnancy. Therefore, expectant mothers are advised to: eat small and frequent meals, eat less sweet, spicy, or sticky food; do not lie flat on the bed or lie too low after meals, and try to bend over as little as possible to reduce acid reflux; keep bowel movements open. If you find symptoms of gastric reflux, try to raise your upper body about 20 degrees.

3) Abdominal pain in late pregnancy In the late pregnancy, as the fetus continues to grow, the burden on the mother's abdomen and body gradually increases. In addition, as delivery is approaching, the frequency of abdominal pain will increase significantly compared to the second trimester.

Finding the cause of left lower abdominal pain in the third trimester of pregnancy requires reasonable consultation between the patient and the doctor.

Cooperation, only when the two cooperate well, can we treat the patients better. For your own health and the future of your child, it is best to be careful during pregnancy, otherwise you will suffer from the bad consequences.
