I just got pregnant and my stomach is uncomfortable. What's going on?

Many women who have just become pregnant have this feeling. In addition to being nervous, they also have a vague discomfort that comes from the feeling in their stomach. This feeling is hard to describe and understand, but it is indeed a hidden pain. Because for many people in the early stages of pregnancy, the tension in their mood is greater than the physical discomfort, but after their mood settles, they find some symptoms in their stomach. Why is this?

1. Early pregnancy reaction

Many pregnant women often experience some pregnancy reactions and stomach discomfort in the early stages of pregnancy. Experts point out that these are normal phenomena, and pregnant women can effectively alleviate this phenomenon as long as they pay more attention to rest. The abdominal discomfort caused by pregnancy reactions is most serious in the middle stage of pregnancy. Most pregnant women often experience some not very severe abdominal pain and discomfort, but it does not last too long. Some pregnant women also have symptoms such as vomiting.

The reason for stomach discomfort is mostly due to the physiological increase in gastric acid secretion in early pregnancy, while the occasional cramps in the lower abdomen are closely related to uterine enlargement. These will not cause any adverse effects.

2. Enlarged uterus

After a period of pregnancy, many pregnant women will experience symptoms such as abdominal distension and pain. Experts point out that pregnant mothers do not need to worry too much about this situation. If it is not due to overeating or digestive system diseases, it is very likely caused by an enlarged uterus. Especially after 3-4 months of pregnancy, the symptoms of lower abdominal distension and pain are more obvious. This is because the uterus grows faster during this period, which causes the organs around the uterus to be squeezed and painful.

Generally speaking, as the pregnancy progresses, the symptoms of the uterus compressing the surrounding organs will gradually improve, and a large number of pregnant women will not experience symptoms such as lower abdominal distension and discomfort in the later stages of pregnancy.

Pregnancy for ten months is a very difficult thing, especially the first three months. The stomach discomfort brings unprecedented hardship to women. In addition, some women will experience morning sickness, which makes it even more difficult. At this time, women should stabilize their mood and pay more attention to diet and rest. This is the only way to ensure the healthy growth of the baby in the belly.
