What causes farting in early pregnancy?

Farting is a very common phenomenon in normal times. Many people have experienced farting at ordinary times, but most people do not take it seriously when they fart. Farting is a normal physiological phenomenon. Pregnant women are a special group of people, especially in the early stages of pregnancy. They need to pay special attention to it. The fetus is still unstable in the early stages of pregnancy and it is easy to have miscarriage. What is going on if you fart a lot in the early stages of pregnancy?

What causes frequent farts during early pregnancy?

Everyone farts sometimes, but in the early stages of pregnancy, pregnant women become more likely to fart. This is because the hormonal changes after pregnancy cause a decrease in gastric motility, so when encountering this situation, pregnant mothers should pay more attention to their gastrointestinal bloating. Therefore, in addition to paying attention to their own nutrition, pregnant mothers should also pay attention to eating less cold food. If you feel unwell after eating cold food, you should go to the hospital for examination in time.

Early pregnancy: caused by changes in hormone secretion. Late pregnancy: The uterus enlarges, compressing the intestines, making bowel movements difficult. The most serious time is the first 3 months after pregnancy, with some nausea and vomiting symptoms, which last until four or five months of pregnancy, and gradually decrease after 34 weeks.

Changes in hormone levels after pregnancy may lead to decreased gastrointestinal smooth muscle tone and reduced peristalsis. The pregnant mother's condition may be related to her diet, so try to avoid eating cold food during pregnancy and avoid contact with stimulating cold substances. Close observation is required, and abnormalities should be checked in time at the hospital to avoid affecting normal embryonic development.

Gastrointestinal bloating in pregnant women will not cause serious problems to the fetus, but it should be noted that when the pregnant mother has stomach discomfort, her appetite will deteriorate and she will not get enough nutrition. For example, in the first 3 months of pregnancy, the fetus needs protein, and in the late pregnancy, the fetus needs nutrition the most. At this time, the pregnant mother will become picky about food due to bloating and discomfort and poor absorption ability, making the fetus unable to absorb enough nutrition.

The way pregnant mothers often deal with pregnancy is: eat small meals frequently: eat 6 to 8 meals a day, and don't eat too much food. In addition, pregnant mothers should not eat liquid food, so semi-solid food such as cheese is the best choice. Eat more fiber: vegetables, fruits, beef, fish. Drink more water: Don’t drink cold water, and drink less stimulating drinks, soda, coffee, and tea. Get proper massage. Walk more: 30 minutes to an hour after a meal, walk outside for 20 to 30 minutes.

It is normal for pregnant women to fart more after becoming pregnant. In the early stages of pregnancy, hormonal changes slow down gastric motility, leading to gastrointestinal bloating. It is recommended that pregnant mothers should pay more attention to food safety in the early stages of pregnancy. For example, some raw and cold foods, some junk foods, etc. should not be eaten. Sometimes you can stay healthy by eating small meals frequently.
