As you enter the third trimester of pregnancy, that is to say, the fetus is getting bigger and bigger, the pregnant mother has to bear more weight, and the abdomen is stretched bigger and bigger. In this case, the pregnant mother will Feeling a lot of discomfort, such as edema, frequent urination, constipation and various pains.
Speaking of all kinds of pain, many pregnant mothers who have given birth must have had this experience. This kind of painful experience is really irreversible. What kind of pain will pregnant mothers experience in the third trimester of pregnancy?
1. Uterine traction pain. After entering the third trimester of pregnancy, especially between the seventh and ninth months of pregnancy, the fetus grows and develops rapidly during this period, and its weight also increases by leaps and bounds. This is also a big test for the uterus. As the fetus continues to grow, the uterus is also affected. As the uterus continues to expand, pregnant mothers will feel slight pain in the abdomen from time to time. In fact, this is caused by the uterus being stretched and stretched, and will not have any impact on the pregnant mother.
This feeling may last for a day or two. If the pregnant mother feels pain, even if it is only slight, it is best to rest immediately and not do any exercise until the pain passes.
2. Low back pain. Because the fetus grows rapidly and the fetal head descends, tightly compressing the waist. In order to maintain a posture that is beneficial to the fetus, pregnant mothers may maintain a posture for a long time, which may deform the waist and cause pain. Low back pain is a very common phenomenon in the third trimester of pregnancy. The larger the fetus, the more painful the waist will be. Especially when the pregnant mother stands for a long time or stays in the same position for a long time, the pain will be more obvious.
To relieve this kind of pain, it is best for pregnant mothers not to maintain the same posture for a long time. They can usually take a walk on the flat ground, or ask the father-to-be to massage, or apply a hot compress. Although it cannot cure or relieve the pain. You will feel a lot more comfortable soon, and you will slowly recover after giving birth.
3. Calf cramps are painful. Calf cramps usually occur in the middle of the night. The pain is really terrible. Calf cramps are mainly due to the increased weight of pregnant women, which puts a greater burden on the feet. The muscles on the feet will suffer from long-term pain. In a state of fatigue, pregnant women are prone to calf cramps when they stretch their waist and push hard. Some pregnant women can also cause calf cramps due to calcium deficiency.
When calf cramps occur, relax your feet and massage the muscles. Do not stand for long periods of time, which will increase the burden on your feet. Soak your feet in hot water to relieve muscle fatigue before going to bed at night. If necessary, Appropriate calcium supplementation.
4. Pubic pain. The pubic bone refers to the connection between the lower end of the abdomen and the root of the thigh. As the weight of the fetus continues to increase, the fetus presses the pubic bone for a long time. The pubic bone cannot withstand the pressure for such a long time, so it separates. The two bones are separated abruptly, and the pubic bone is separated. It’s strange that it hurts. Pubic pain can be described in two words: huge pain, it’s really not an exaggeration. How bad can it be?
Some pregnant mothers say that the pain is so painful that they dare not even move. Whenever they move, it hurts so much that they cannot turn over, get out of bed, or walk. They walk like a penguin. The worst thing is that some pregnant mothers start to feel pain in four or five months, and the pain continues until birth. How much pain they have to endure. However, most pregnant mothers only start to have pain in the third trimester of pregnancy, and some pregnant mothers have no pain at all. Lazy mothers are very envious of those pregnant mothers who do not have pain in their pubic bones.
What to do if you have pubic pain? When you need to supplement calcium, supplement calcium. If it is caused by other reasons, don't stand for a long time, don't sit astride, try not to take the stairs, don't use force, take your time when changing postures, it's best to ask someone for help when dressing and bathing, seriously If so, just use an abdominal support belt or a pelvic belt. I'm not being pretentious, pubic pain is really painful.
5. Sciatica. If pubic pain is severe pain, then sciatica is super painful. Sciatica is caused by the growing uterus, which compresses the sciatic nerve. Pregnant mothers will have pain from the waist or buttocks to the back of the legs, calves and even heels. It will hurt when walking. , it will hurt even when you sit down. Sciatica is just like being electrocuted. It is a kind of radiating pain. This kind of pain is also the highest level of pain.
In fact, in the late stages of pregnancy, the pregnant mother's body will secrete a substance called relaxin, which will relax the ligaments in the pregnant mother's waist, so she will gradually feel low back pain and sciatica after the fetus is compressed. , pregnant mothers often feel pain in their buttocks.
Sciatica can also be relieved through massage and hot compress. If the pain is too severe, please see a doctor.
In addition to the above pains, childbirth is also very painful. Therefore, only by raising a child can you know the kindness of your parents. If you have never tried it, how would you know how hard and difficult it is for the mother to give birth to you? .
