What happens when you press your belly during early pregnancy?

I believe everyone should know that women's bodies are weak in the early stages of pregnancy, so women must pay great attention to all aspects of life during this period. Women in the early stages of pregnancy should also pay attention to protecting their stomachs, because if the stomach is accidentally hit by external force, it will increase the probability of miscarriage. However, accidents are inevitable in life. What will be the consequences if a woman in early pregnancy accidentally presses on her belly?

What happens when you press your belly during pregnancy?

Because the baby is still in its early stages of pregnancy, you won’t be able to feel the baby even if you press hard. Do not press your stomach or lower abdomen. Using too much force may cause miscarriage. You can gently stroke your belly to let your baby feel your presence.

1. Prevent and eliminate constipation. Regular belly massage can activate the functions of organs such as the gastrointestinal tract, enhance the body's absorption and digestion of food, and more effectively promote the peristaltic function of the large and small intestines, thereby preventing and eliminating constipation. Pregnant women, in particular, are more likely to suffer from poor gastrointestinal function and constipation during pregnancy due to physiological changes. Regular belly massage is undoubtedly a good solution to this problem.
