Stomach pain can have a devastating impact on people's lives. Therefore, people pay great attention to protecting their stomachs in life, especially pregnant women. Vomiting is very easy to occur in the early stages of pregnancy, which is both a good thing and a bad thing for women, because this kind of vomiting caused by morning sickness basically does not have much impact on the body. However, some women have more serious vomiting and will experience stomach pain, which is especially obvious during sleep. Why do pregnant women have stomach pain when they sleep? The reason why pregnant women have stomach pain is that their stomach acid is prone to reflux. The reason for acid reflux in pregnant women may be that after pregnancy, the sphincter of pregnant women tends to relax, thus causing acid reflux; it may also be that the gradually enlarging uterus presses on the stomach and intestines, causing acid reflux easily. Pregnant women have stomach pain because their stomach acid is prone to reflux Sphincter relaxation causes stomach pain in pregnant women: After a woman becomes pregnant, the hormones in her body will change, which will cause the sphincter to relax. A common phenomenon is that after a pregnant woman eats food, the food easily comes up. This is because the sphincter is located at the junction of the esophagus and the stomach. Normally, it makes the food we eat only go down and not come up. When the sphincter relaxes, it is easy for the acidic contents in the stomach to reflux into the esophagus, throat and mouth, irritating the mucosa and causing stomach pain in pregnant women. The uterus compresses the stomach and intestines, causing stomach pain in pregnant women: In the late stages of pregnancy, the growing uterus can easily compress the stomach and intestines. In addition, hormones relax the muscles that separate the esophagus and stomach, making it easier for stomach acid to surge upward and cause a burning sensation in the chest, making pregnant women prone to stomach pain. The above is an explanation of why pregnant women have stomach pain when sleeping. Generally speaking, vomiting occurs in the early stages of pregnancy, but stomach pain lasts longer than vomiting. Therefore, pregnant women should take certain preventive measures in the early stages of pregnancy, and must be refined in their diet, and try not to eat some overly bad foods. |
