How to relieve body aches during pregnancy

If a pregnant woman experiences body aches, she should emphasize treatment. As the pregnancy period lengthens, the pregnant woman's belly will grow significantly, and some discomfort symptoms will gradually increase. The pregnant woman feels distressed, and sometimes it causes body aches. In this case, the first thing to do is to avoid sitting for a long time and do moderate exercise, which will help blood circulation to relieve the pain. Let's take a look at this aspect.

How to relieve body aches during pregnancy

1. Walking posture

1. Keep your shoulders relaxed and don’t hunch your upper body.

2. Don’t walk for too long. Sit down and take a rest after walking for a while before walking again.

3. Have a pair of low-profile shoes with good arch support. The sole should not be too flat and should have a certain thickness.

4. In the later stages of pregnancy, you can wear a special waist protector to prevent your waist from being damaged by gravity and relieve back pain.

2. Standing Posture

After pregnancy, standing for a long time can easily lead to back pain, especially in the middle and late stages of pregnancy. Therefore, expectant mothers must avoid standing for too long during pregnancy. If you feel tired while standing, you should quickly find a place to sit down and rest. If the fighting time is long, you should stand with one foot in front and the other behind, and change the front and back positions every few minutes so that your weight falls on the outstretched front leg.

3. Sitting posture

1. Sit up straight, with your body upright, your buttocks close to the back of the chair, your head and neck straight, and your body and head and neck must not be tilted

2. Sit upright, put a small stool under your feet, step on the stool to relax your legs, and never cross your legs.

3. Sit flat, lean against the desk, support yourself with your elbows, do not lean to one side, and relax your shoulders.

4. Move more. Do not sit for too long. Adjust your posture every half an hour and stand up and move for 3-5 minutes before continuing.

4. Sleeping Position

After pregnancy, you can lie down to rest. In order to promote blood circulation and relieve soreness, you can use soft cushions to raise your legs when lying down. You should develop the habit of sleeping on your side, which can effectively reduce the burden on your waist and relieve the discomfort during pregnancy. Warm reminder: When pregnant women sleep, they can fold a soft towel into a square and place it under the knee joint. This can effectively relax the pressure on the abdominal muscles and relieve the symptoms of low back pain in early pregnancy.
