Reasons for belly growling during pregnancy

Reasons for belly growling during pregnancy

During pregnancy, there are always vomiting, fatigue, and lack of strength in the legs and feet. These are all normal for pregnant women. Pregnant women also often do not want to eat and have poor stomachs. These are some reactions in the early pregnancy. Some friends will gradually find that their stomachs are rumbling in the middle of pregnancy. What's going on?

Lower abdominal pain and bloating caused by fetal gas in the early stages of pregnancy. This is a normal phenomenon after pregnancy.

Progesterone makes intestinal motility worse, and the most obvious period for pregnant women to experience bloating usually occurs in the first trimester, which is the first 3 months of pregnancy. After pregnancy, the stomach's ability to excrete acid is poor, and the stomach acid is relatively high. In addition, when pregnancy just begins, that is, during the period from ovulation to pregnancy, the progesterone in the body gradually increases, and progesterone will make the intestinal peristalsis ability worse, and the excretion function will naturally be affected, and then symptoms of bloating and constipation will appear. Therefore, the main cause of bloating in the first trimester is changes in hormone secretion.

1. For most pregnant women, bloating is most severe during the first three months of pregnancy, and is also accompanied by symptoms of nausea and vomiting, which will gradually subside after this period of time.

2. If the pregnant woman already has gastrointestinal diseases, such as constipation, bloating, poor motility, or gastroenteritis, hyperacidity, or even gastric ulcers, the bloating during pregnancy will last longer, lasting until about four or five months of pregnancy. 5 ways to relieve it: 1. Eat small amounts of food frequently

2. Eat more fiber-rich vegetables and fruits. For example, during the first trimester, the baby needs a lot of protein, so the demand for foods such as starch, pasta, and beans, which are easy to produce gas and cause gastrointestinal discomfort, is relatively small and you don’t need to consume too much. In addition, you can get some sugar and starch. Apples and pears are good sources. You can also get starch and protein from meat. Beef and fish are good choices.

In fact, as we learned above about the rumbling belly during pregnancy, expectant mothers do not need to worry too much as long as we pay attention to our diet. Take good care of your stomach, try to eat light and nutritious food to regulate your body and you will feel much better.
