Upper abdominal cramps in late pregnancy

Nowadays, young people go for pregnancy checkups when they get married. Generally, pregnant women choose larger hospitals to check the baby's development. During pregnancy, the pregnant woman's body will encounter many problems at any time. At this time, the pregnant woman needs to see a doctor in time to find out the details. So do you know what to do if pregnant women experience severe pain in the upper abdomen?

First, go to the hospital for a B-ultrasound examination to see the baby's development and whether there are any signs of miscarriage, and seek timely treatment to preserve the fetus. Another thing to check is whether it is caused by appendicitis or other abdominal diseases. It is recommended to go to the hospital outpatient department immediately without delay.

What pregnant women need to pay attention to

1. Clothes should be loose and comfortable, and should not be too tight on the chest to avoid affecting breathing and restricting chest expansion. Avoid tight, narrow belts to avoid affecting the movement of the fetus. It is safer and more comfortable for expectant mothers to wear thick-soled canvas shoes.

2. Breast cleaning: In the middle and late stages of pregnancy, the nipples should be wiped with soap frequently to prevent nipple lacerations during breastfeeding, which may lead to mastitis. If there are nipple indentations, you can use your hands to gently stretch the nipple outward every day to avoid sucking difficulties when feeding your newborn baby. If the breasts are hanging or too large, it is advisable to use a bra to support them, but it should not be too tight.

3. Sexual intercourse should be avoided during the first three months of pregnancy and in the late stages of pregnancy to prevent miscarriage in the early stages of pregnancy, or premature birth and infection in the late stages of pregnancy.

Of course, there are many reasons for abdominal pain, so everyone must seek medical attention to check the cause of the disease.
