Lost ten pounds during pregnancy?

Everyone knows that pregnancy is a special physiological phenomenon. Generally, women will experience some symptoms in the early stages of pregnancy. Some women have severe morning sickness, while others do not. Women with severe morning sickness vomit whatever they eat, and may even lose several pounds due to vomiting. Some women worry that it will affect the health of the baby in their belly. In fact, the baby can absorb enough nutrition from the mother in the first three months of pregnancy.

Morning sickness generally does not affect the fetus

Mild to moderate nausea and occasional vomiting during pregnancy generally do not affect your baby's health. It's okay if you don't gain any weight during your first trimester (first three months of pregnancy) as long as you're not dehydrated or eating too little. In most cases, you should be able to regain your appetite quickly and start gaining weight.

How to Reduce Morning Sickness

Morning sickness is closely related to many factors, such as changes in hormone levels in the human body after conception, mental stress and so on. The following four-step treatment can help you relieve pain and reduce morning sickness.

1. Psychotherapy

It is more important than anything else to relax mentally. If you are under too much psychological pressure, the pregnancy reaction will be more serious. Morning sickness is a normal phenomenon. As long as it is within the normal range, there is no need to worry about adverse effects on the fetus. Learn some relevant scientific knowledge, communicate more with mothers and pregnant women around you, learn from each other, and relieve psychological pressure. You can also communicate more with your physical examination doctor, tell the doctor about your situation, and see if it is necessary to receive appropriate treatment for morning sickness.

2. Diet therapy

In fact, the fetus grows slowly in the early stages of pregnancy (the first three months) and does not need much nutrition. In terms of taste, you can try to choose what you want to eat, and also try to reduce the amount of food you eat each time, and eat small meals frequently. Drinking more water and eating more vitamin-rich foods can prevent constipation, as constipation can aggravate early pregnancy reactions.

Change your dining environment as much as possible to stimulate your appetite. In order to reduce morning sickness, eat more drier foods, such as biscuits, biscuits, toasted steamed bread slices, bread slices, etc. If morning sickness is severe, eat more vegetables, fruits and other alkaline foods to prevent acidosis.

3. Exercise therapy

Appropriately participating in some light activities, such as outdoor walking, doing exercises for prenatal care, etc., can improve your mood, strengthen your body, and reduce early pregnancy reactions.

4. Drug therapy

Some expectant mothers experience severe vomiting. In this case, in order to ensure the health of the mother and fetus, they should take nutritional supplements. For example, taking some B vitamins and vitamin C can also reduce the discomfort of pregnancy reactions.
