Why pregnant women get angry easily?

For pregnant women, maintaining a happy mood is more conducive to the growth and development of the fetus. However, some women are always particularly angry during pregnancy. After pregnancy, women's body resistance and immunity will be particularly poor, which will always lead to some diseases. However, some women are particularly prone to early pregnancy reactions in the early stages of pregnancy due to their physical constitution, such as nausea and vomiting. This will always make women particularly irritable and always angry. Let's understand why pregnant women are prone to anger.

Why pregnant women get angry easily?

It is understood that when the mother's emotions change, it can stimulate the activity of her autonomic nervous system, and then the endocrine glands controlled by the nervous system will secrete a variety of hormones. These hormones can enter the placenta through the blood circulation, causing changes in the blood composition of the placenta, thereby stimulating fetal activity.

If a pregnant woman is often angry during pregnancy, it may cause the baby's heart rhythm to be less variable after birth. Data shows that changes in heart rate can reflect a person's health condition because it reflects the body's process of self-adjustment to adapt to the outside world. For example, different breathing rhythms will affect changes in heart rate. However, if the heart cannot adapt to this change and the heart rhythm changes too little, it will be more susceptible to infection and heart disease. This is also the reason why adults with less variability in their heart rhythm are more likely to develop heart disease. At the same time, studies have found that when a pregnant woman is angry during pregnancy, the hormonal changes in her body can also be transmitted to the fetus through the placenta, thereby affecting the fetal cell development.

In addition, if a pregnant woman is overly nervous for a long time, such as anger, fear, pain, fright, worry, etc., it may have an adverse effect on the fetal hypothalamus, resulting in a higher chance of suffering from mental illness in the future. Even if they survive, they may become low-birth-weight babies. Such babies are active, in bad moods, prone to crying, have digestive disorders, and have a high incidence of disease.

Therefore, for the health of the baby, pregnant women must find appropriate ways to vent their negative emotions.

What to do if pregnant women get angry easily

1. Maintain good sleep.

For pregnant women, sleep time and quality are very important. If the quality of sleep is poor, problems such as irritability, anger, and temper tantrums will occur. Therefore, choosing the right time to rest during the day and maintaining a warm environment for sleep at night are helpful to the mood of pregnant women.

2. Listen to music.

Music has a good regulating effect on people's mood. During pregnancy, pregnant women may feel a lot of pressure and become very nervous about the health of their unborn baby and the fear of giving birth. At this time, you can listen to some soothing and beautiful music, which can not only relieve tension, but also play a good role in prenatal education for the baby.

3. Practice yoga.

Doing yoga during pregnancy can not only relieve tension, but also have a good effect on the fetus. Yoga allows pregnant women to consciously control their brain systems, thereby more effectively helping them calm their minds, reduce stress, and achieve peace of body and mind. In addition, pregnant women's negative emotions such as irritability, irritability, sadness, etc. caused by the increase in progesterone secretion during pregnancy can also be relieved and released through pregnancy yoga. During yoga practice, the fetus can also be given appropriate and gentle stimulation and massage to increase its responsiveness to the outside world.

4. Go out for a walk.

The physical changes during pregnancy will cause various discomforts for pregnant women, making them unwilling to go out, which leads to very bad mood. At this time, you can go out for a walk every morning and evening to relax, divert your attention, and breathe some fresh air, which may change your mood. The walking time does not need to be too long, half an hour to an hour will be enough. You can choose a park or a place with beautiful environment as your walking place.

The above is an introduction to why pregnant women are prone to anger. After understanding it, we know that there are many reasons for such symptoms. Female friends must pay special attention to adjusting their mood after pregnancy. They can go for walks outdoors more often to distract themselves. In addition, they should also pay attention to adjusting their diet. They can eat more light foods and fruits, and go to the hospital regularly for prenatal check-ups.
