I have a stomachache ten days into my pregnancy. What's going on?

I believe that mothers who are pregnant for the first time have all experienced abdominal pain during pregnancy. Do you know what causes abdominal pain on the 10th day of pregnancy? Generally speaking, pregnant women will experience abdominal pain and other phenomena due to the enlargement of the uterus during about 3 months of pregnancy. If the pregnancy is only 10 days, it is generally not caused by the enlargement of the uterus. So what other reasons can cause abdominal pain? Let’s learn about it together!

1. Causes of abdominal pain during pregnancy

Abdominal pain during pregnancy is a common symptom encountered by expectant mothers. Expectant mothers should be cautious and not take it lightly, knowing which abdominal pain is a normal physiological reaction and which is a disease warning from the body. In the early stages of pregnancy, some abdominal pain is physiological, that is, a normal reaction caused by pregnancy, but some is pathological, which may indicate the occurrence of crises such as miscarriage, especially if there is vaginal bleeding, which should be taken seriously. Physiological abdominal pain: In the early stages of pregnancy, many expectant mothers always feel some stomach pain, sometimes accompanied by early pregnancy reactions such as vomiting. This is mainly caused by increased gastric acid secretion in the early stages of 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. As the early stages of pregnancy end, the discomfort will naturally disappear. Pathological abdominal pain: If you experience abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy, especially lower abdominal pain, the first thing you should consider is whether it is a pregnancy complication. Common complications include threatened abortion and ectopic pregnancy

2. What should you pay attention to during pregnancy?

Women who are pregnant for the first time will experience a series of changes both physically and psychologically. Because it is the first time, pregnant women themselves are often unaware of it. If they had no plans to have children, or do not understand their body's reactions at all, they may accidentally take medicines or neglect the details of life, which may have adverse effects on the fetus and mother. In terms of physical reactions, there may be cold-like symptoms in the early stages of pregnancy. If you buy medicine indiscriminately, not only will it fail to achieve the therapeutic effect, you may even give birth to a deformed baby! Therefore, do not take medicine arbitrarily under any circumstances. The safest way is to see a doctor and find out the cause of the disease. If you feel unwell, do not force yourself to do strenuous exercise or travel far at this time to avoid accidental miscarriage. In addition, if necessary, do not take X-rays casually. You should check your physical condition first to confirm whether you are pregnant. These details in life may seem insignificant if you are healthy and normal, but if you are pregnant, it may be a fatal injury, so you must be cautious.

3. Pay attention to abnormal pregnancy conditions

Life begins with a fertilized egg cell. A cell divides, differentiates, develops into a normal fetus and is delivered, which requires the coordinated efforts of all aspects of the mother and fetus. During this process, any abnormality in either the mother or the fetus may affect the normal progress of the pregnancy. Pregnant women should be aware of common abnormal conditions during pregnancy and seek medical attention immediately if they occur. Abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding during early pregnancy may be manifestations of miscarriage, hydatidiform mole, or ectopic pregnancy. If ultrasound examination indicates intrauterine pregnancy and the fetus is alive, the patient should absolutely rest in bed and receive pregnancy preservation treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Vaginal bleeding in late pregnancy, if the amount is small, is a sign of labor; if the amount is large, you should pay attention to whether there is placenta previa or placental abruption. In short, pregnancy is a physiological process that makes people happy and worried. Maintaining a healthy mentality is a prerequisite for the health of mothers and babies. Fully understand your own physiological changes, arrange your diet and daily life reasonably, have regular prenatal examinations, and seek medical treatment at any time if there is any abnormality. Caring for yourself is caring for your child. The first three months is a dangerous period. Be careful not to go to crowded places, don't carry heavy objects, don't wear high heels, it's best not to take the bus, and don't use medicine indiscriminately. If you feel any discomfort, go to the hospital for treatment. Also, pay attention to keeping a cheerful attitude and do more prenatal education.

The above are all the reasons why abdominal pain occurs 10 days into pregnancy. In this case, it is recommended that pregnant women go to the hospital for treatment in time. By the way, pay attention to whether there are any bleeding symptoms in your vagina. If so, it is very likely caused by threatened abortion and requires hospitalization for fetal preservation treatment. If the pain is severe, it is recommended to stay in bed in time and do not walk or stand for too long.
