What to do if a pregnant woman feels uncomfortable

Pregnant women often experience various discomforts during pregnancy. For example, many pregnant women will experience psychological discomfort during pregnancy. This discomfort is caused by certain changes in hormones and hormones in women's bodies during pregnancy. If a pregnant woman feels uncomfortable or depressed for a long time, it will have a great impact on both the mother and the fetus. Below, we will introduce in detail the reasons why you may feel bad after pregnancy and how to deal with it.

1. Why do you suddenly feel bad after pregnancy?

Progesterone and estrogen are female hormones that regulate your reproductive period and are thought to be partly responsible for your mood swings during pregnancy. But most pregnancy mood swings are simply because pregnancy is a time of huge change for you. You can be ecstatic at the thought of having a baby one day, and then the next day you can be worried about your future.

Even if the baby arrives amidst great anticipation, for many ecstatic expectant mothers, worries about the future will still dilute their happiness from time to time. You may be worried about whether your relationship with your spouse will be affected, whether the baby is healthy, the financial problems you will face after having the baby, and so on. Even minor pregnancy problems, such as heartburn, fatigue, and frequent urination, can cause you psychological distress. All of these worries can make your pregnancy an emotional roller coaster.

2. What should I do if I feel bad in the early stages of pregnancy?

If you're feeling down, there are things you can do to feel better. Take a nap, ask a friend to go for a walk with you, or watch a movie. Don't be too hard on yourself. One of the best ways to deal with this is talk therapy — which means, as the name suggests, talking about your feelings with a friend, family member, or, if you prefer, your doctor. Pregnancy is a major event in your life, and it is sure to make anyone, even an expectant mother, feel confused, irritable and anxious from time to time.

3. What should I do if I lose control of my emotions during pregnancy?

If you feel that your mood swings during pregnancy are beyond normal, it is best to see a professional therapist. Although it is normal to feel bad in the early stages of pregnancy, about 10% of expectant mothers will experience mild to moderate depression during pregnancy. This could be the case if you feel down on your feet frequently or persistently, rather than just occasionally.
