I have a dull pain in my stomach when I am three months pregnant.

Women need special care during pregnancy, because as their belly grows bigger day by day, the burden on their bodies becomes heavier, making it very easy for them to develop symptoms of illness and pain, causing trouble for women. For example, many women experience abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy, which makes them very panicked. Let’s take a look at what’s going on when you have a slight stomach ache when you’re more than three months pregnant.

1. Physiological abdominal pain: The uterus gradually grows larger during embryonic development. Coupled with the effects of hormones in the body and the pulling of the uterine ligaments, many pregnant women will experience abdominal pain and discomfort at this time. However, this pain is often mild and can be relieved after rest.

2. Pathological abdominal pain: The most common ones are threatened abortion and ectopic pregnancy. In addition, if you eat spoiled or overcold food, the intestinal cramps caused by it will also make pregnant mothers feel abdominal pain; acute gastritis, gastroenteritis, acute pancreatitis, and uterine fibroid degeneration and other diseases may also be one of the causes. You need to go to the hospital in time for symptomatic treatment to avoid worsening of the disease or miscarriage.

3. Uterine fibroids. The abdominal pain caused by uterine fibroids comes suddenly and is local pain, that is, pain in a fixed place. This type of situation requires timely treatment. Ovarian tumors can also cause abdominal pain, mainly manifested as colic, abdominal discomfort, abnormal abdominal distension, etc. In this case, you must go to the hospital immediately.

4. Physiological abdominal pain Physiological abdominal pain is a normal phenomenon. Many expectant mothers always feel some stomach pain in the early pregnancy, sometimes accompanied by vomiting. This is a normal early pregnancy reaction. Increased gastric acid secretion in the early pregnancy is the main cause. Pregnant mothers do not need to worry too much. They just need to pay attention to diet, eat more light food and try to digest it easily. They can eat some toasted steamed bread slices or soda crackers for breakfast. After the early stages of pregnancy, abdominal pain and other symptoms will disappear naturally.

5. Pathological abdominal pain Pathological abdominal pain is potentially dangerous, and pregnant mothers should pay special attention to it. If lower abdominal pain occurs in early pregnancy, the first thing to consider is whether it is a pregnancy complication. Threatened miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy are common complications.
