It is quite common for pregnant women to experience chest pain. Sometimes it is a normal chest pain. For example, breast pain is easy to occur during pregnancy, especially when a large amount of blood flows to the breasts to prepare for the enrichment of milk. This is a normal phenomenon. 1. Breast pain causes chest pain Sometimes what pregnant women think is chest pain is actually just breast pain. Breast pain is more likely to occur during the first and third trimesters, especially. This is because a large amount of blood flows into the breasts, and in order to have abundant breast milk after delivery, the hormones in the pregnant woman's body decrease, causing breast pain. Mild breast pain is normal and pregnant women should not be too nervous. 2. Muscle expansion causes chest pain As the fetus grows, the pregnant woman's abdomen will gradually expand, which causes the muscles to expand and lead to chest pain. Pregnant women can relieve pain by taking a hot bath or soaking their feet in hot water. At the same time, please note that pregnant women should not lift heavy objects. 3. Heartburn causes chest pain During pregnancy, your hormones increase to maintain the uterus and soften the ligaments. When the lower esophageal sphincter relaxes, stomach acid and food in the stomach will flow back into the esophagus and throat, causing a burning and sour sensation in pregnant women. At the same time, as the fetus continues to grow, the diaphragm and stomach are squeezed, which can also cause a burning sensation. |
