How to control thigh thickening during pregnancy

Edema is a normal phenomenon during pregnancy, and pregnant women do not need to worry too much. After 28 weeks of pregnancy, because the pregnant woman's uterus has grown to a certain extent, it may compress the venous return. Therefore, pregnant women with poor venous return are more likely to have edema at this stage, and with the increase of gestational age, the edema of pregnant women will become more and more obvious. How to control the widening of the thigh roots during pregnancy? Please take a look at the detailed introduction, I hope it will be helpful to everyone.

There are many reasons for edema. The increase of growth hormone metabolized by the fetus and aldosterone metabolized by adrenaline leads to sodium and water retention in the body. The blood vessels in the lower body of the pregnant mother are also compressed by the uterus, which affects the smooth circulation of blood, especially the hands, ankles, calves and other parts of the body where fluid stagnates and blood flow is blocked, resulting in symptoms of edema.

Edema generally presents with the following symptoms:

1. During pregnancy, the base of the thighs becomes wider and there is a feeling of numbness and pain.

2. The weight continues to increase by more than 1-2 catties.

3. Edema occurs in the morning, fingers swell, and diamond rings cannot be taken off.

Many women will eat a variety of foods during pregnancy, and their appetite becomes larger, so their bodies become fatter, especially their thighs become too thick. The thigh roots become wider during pregnancy. If you want to lose some weight, you must use healthy methods. The body of pregnant women is more special. If you use more unsafe weight loss methods, it may have adverse effects on the baby. Everyone must pay attention.

If the thigh roots become wider during pregnancy, you can walk often instead of squatting for a long time. Many women do not stop working during pregnancy. Squatting in front of the computer for a long time every day will cause excessive fat to accumulate in the body, so the thigh roots will become thicker and thicker. If you still insist on working during pregnancy, you should stand up and move around every hour, drink water, go to the bathroom, and ask your boss to change to a more relaxed position, so that your body can become more relaxed.

The thighs become wider during pregnancy, so everyone should also pay attention to maintaining a comfortable posture. Many people have the problem of crossing their legs. This posture can easily lead to obesity in the thighs and buttocks, which will affect blood circulation and the circulation of the feet, causing a lot of fat to accumulate in the lower body, and will also make the lower body edema very serious. At this time, the feet will become thicker and thicker. You can massage your legs after taking a shower every day to improve the condition of the thick feet.

Pregnant women with wider thighs should also eat more beans, sweet potatoes or corn, adjust their diet, eat less white flour and rice, and add some coarse grains or beans to their main meals. This will provide sufficient dietary fiber, which can speed up intestinal peristalsis, alleviate constipation problems that are common during pregnancy, and alleviate the problem of wider thighs.

What I have introduced above is what to do if the roots of the thighs become wider during pregnancy. After reading the above introduction, everyone should have a certain understanding. If the roots of the thighs become wider during pregnancy, you should also pay attention to developing a diet structure of eating small meals frequently, and insist on taking a walk after meals every day, so as to avoid being too fat. You can also measure your weight every day, grasp your weight status, and make adjustments at any time.
