Brown discharge in early pregnancy

In the early stages of pregnancy, many pregnant women will find that they secrete a small amount of brown secretion. In this case, they will become very worried and anxious. In fact, they need to calm themselves down. This situation is relatively common and will not have any impact. This is a common pregnancy reaction. Sometimes it will cause morning sickness and stomach pain.

1. Lie down and get enough rest. When you feel like vomiting, you might as well lie down. This method can effectively relieve morning sickness. You can also use a pregnancy pillow to protect your back and stomach and ensure a good night's sleep.

2. Eat small and frequent meals. Eating a small amount in the morning can prevent nausea and vomiting. Keep some nutritious and appetizing snacks around you so that you can eat whenever you feel hungry. This method can reduce morning sickness.

3. Eat more original foods. In the early stages of pregnancy, you can eat more foods rich in carbohydrates, such as soda crackers, bananas, etc. In addition, white rice, plain yogurt, lemonade, watermelon, etc. can also reduce morning sickness. Avoid fatty, greasy, spicy, and fried foods, which can irritate your already fragile digestive system.

4. Eat a snack. Place some simple snacks, such as cookies, by your bed. When you wake up, eat a few cookies and rest for 20-30 minutes before getting up. If you wake up in the middle of the night feeling nauseous, you can also eat some cookies to relieve the pain.

5. Adjust the temperature of the drink. If you feel like vomiting when you see a hot drink, try a cold drink instead. Conversely, if cold drinks make you want to vomit more, switch to hot drinks. Try eating foods that are cool or at room temperature, as the smell of these foods is not as strong as hot foods.

6. Smell the lemon. Cut open a fresh lemon and smell or lick it. The refreshing scent and sour taste of lemon can help many expectant mothers relieve morning sickness. Put a few drops of lemon on a handkerchief and use it as an emergency measure when you smell an unpleasant odor.

The most important thing to note in early pregnancy is to supplement folic acid, because expectant mothers' demand for folic acid throughout the pregnancy is 1.5 to 2 times that before pregnancy. Taking 0.4 mg of folic acid per day in early pregnancy can greatly reduce the incidence of fetal neural tube defects and prevent birth defects in newborns.

Severe pregnancy reactions can also affect the appetite of expectant mothers, and nutrition will naturally not keep up. Tangerine peel, which has the effects of promoting qi and strengthening the spleen, warming the stomach and stopping vomiting, and Chinese yam, which can strengthen the spleen and stomach, and replenish qi, can effectively relieve pregnancy reactions.

After pregnancy, women's blood volume increases, which can easily cause physiological anemia, resulting in a decrease in the blood's ability to transport nutrients to the baby, affecting the baby's growth and development. During pregnancy, you can supplement iron appropriately and increase the consumption of honey, jujube, wolfberry, yam, lotus seeds, tangerine peel, enoki mushrooms, etc., especially jujube, which contains ferrous ions. Ferrous ions are mainly used to synthesize red blood cells and maintain the normal concentration of blood. Combining Chinese and Western medicine can comprehensively replenish the blood.
