What causes abdominal pain during pregnancy?

If you have abdominal pain during pregnancy, many people think that such symptoms are abnormal. In fact, such symptoms are not completely abnormal. It may also be physiological abdominal pain. So don’t be alarmed when you have abdominal pain. You must find the cause in time to improve the disease in time. However, if the abdominal pain during pregnancy is pathological, you must get treatment in time. Let’s take a look at what causes this abdominal pain during pregnancy?

Physiological abdominal pain in early pregnancy:

Many pregnant women always feel some stomach pain, sometimes accompanied by early pregnancy reactions such as vomiting. This is mainly caused by increased gastric acid secretion in early pregnancy. At this time, you should pay attention to diet adjustment. The meals should be light and easy to digest. You can eat some toasted steamed bread slices or soda crackers for breakfast. The discomfort will disappear naturally as the first trimester ends.

Pathological abdominal pain Abdominal pain occurs in early pregnancy:

Especially for lower abdominal pain, the first thing to consider is whether it is a pregnancy complication. Common complications include threatened miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy.

(1) If a pregnant woman experiences paroxysmal lower abdominal pain or regular abdominal pain, back pain, or pelvic pain in the first few months of pregnancy, the problem may be more complicated. If it is accompanied by vaginal spotting or a noticeable feeling of abdominal heaviness, it may indicate threatened miscarriage. Expectant mothers should move less, stay in bed more, avoid sexual intercourse, avoid lifting heavy objects, drink enough water, and seek medical attention promptly. If pain worsens or bleeding continues, seek medical attention immediately.

(2) If you experience severe unilateral lower abdominal pain accompanied by vaginal bleeding or fainting, it may be an ectopic pregnancy and you should go to the hospital immediately for treatment.

The above are the reasons for abdominal pain during pregnancy. Once you know the reason, it will be easier to improve. If you don’t know the reason, you will be blind in treatment, which is not good for the fetus. When you have abdominal pain, don’t rule out the possibility of threatened miscarriage. Threatened miscarriage must be improved with medication in time and treatment to preserve the fetus must be done, otherwise the fetus may really have a miscarriage.
