Girls are of course full of expectations for the baby when they reach the late stage of pregnancy, but some people will have drastic physical reactions during this period. Although the due date has not yet arrived, their bodies will have various symptoms, indicating that the fetus is about to meet them. Some girls may often feel dizzy during this period, which is caused by insufficient blood supply. So, is dizziness in late pregnancy caused by lack of oxygen?

1. Drug therapy

In the late stages of pregnancy, you often feel dizzy and may even faint, feel tired, have a poor appetite, and suffer from palpitations and forgetfulness. It is recommended to take Bazhen Soup (12 grams of Angelica sinensis, 15 grams of Rehmannia glutinosa, 15 grams of White Peony Root, 10 grams of Chuanxiong, 15 grams of Codonopsis pilosula, 12 grams of Atractylodes macrocephala, 12 grams of Poria cocos, and 6 grams of Licorice), decocted in water and taken.

2. Nutritional supplement

Dizziness is generally caused by hypoglycemia. The fetus develops at an astonishing rate in the mother's body every day and constantly obtains various nutrients from the mother. If the mother's nutrition cannot keep up, the fetus will continue to absorb nutrition from the mother, which will lead to nutritional deficiency in the mother and cause hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia will cause dizziness and even fainting. Therefore, expectant mothers must pay attention to a balanced diet. They don’t have to eat too much at each meal, but they must have a balanced diet to meet the needs of fetal development.

3. Massage to relieve
