Why do pregnant women always hiccup?

Every woman who gives birth to a life is a great mother. During pregnancy, expectant mothers will endure a lot of painful experiences, from morning sickness at the beginning, to the body becoming heavy, hands and feet starting to swell, to the great pain when the baby is born. It's really hard work. Pregnant women are the ones we should pay special attention to in our daily lives. Because the health of a pregnant woman is not only related to her own health but also to the health of the baby in her body, so why do pregnant women always hiccup?

The reason for frequent hiccups in mid-pregnancy is that as the fetus and uterus gradually grow larger, the diaphragm rises and hiccups occur. Of course, other digestive system diseases cannot be ruled out. If the situation is serious, it is recommended to go to the obstetrics department of the hospital for a detailed examination and symptomatic treatment. Don't get anxious or irritable when you hiccup, as it usually subsides on its own within a few minutes. Those suffering from chronic diseases will be fine after antispasmodic and gastric motility enhancing treatment.

Pregnancy tips:

Do not drink cold drinks or do strenuous exercise when you have burps.

Here are a few things you can try:

1. Press the eyeball: When you hiccup, press your palm on the eyeball and apply a little pressure. Then a stream of gas will be discharged from the stomach and the hiccups will stop.

If pressing the eyeball is not effective, you can press the upper edge of the eye socket instead, find the painful point on the edge of the eye socket, and then press and rub it vigorously a few times, and the hiccups will disappear. However, this method is not suitable for people with glaucoma, severe myopia and heart disease.

2. Stretching the tongue: When you hiccup, wrap a piece of clean gauze on your tongue, pinch your tongue with your fingers and stretch it outwards. At this time, you will feel gas rising in the abdomen and the hiccups will stop naturally.

If the situation is serious, treatment should be sought immediately.
