Most women will have low back pain during pregnancy, because after pregnancy, the uterus will become bigger and bigger, and various hormones secreted by the body will also change. Although low back pain during pregnancy is a normal physiological phenomenon, it will make pregnant mothers feel particularly uncomfortable, so we should find the right way to relieve the symptoms of low back pain.

1. Use a special pregnancy belt

Many pregnant mothers have symptoms of low back pain because the pressure of the uterus on the waist is getting bigger and bigger. Therefore, using a special pregnancy belt can alleviate the symptoms of low back pain. The pregnancy belt can not only reduce the pressure on the waist, but also support the waist.

2. Exercise properly

Many pregnant mothers have symptoms of low back pain, which is caused by lack of exercise, because insufficient exercise will lead to the decline of people's physical fitness and the strength of the waist, so pregnant mothers should still do appropriate exercise during pregnancy, such as maternity exercises, and it is advisable not to be tired when exercising.

3. Choose the right bed and shoes

Sleeping on a soft bed during pregnancy can also lead to low back pain, because lying on a soft bed will cause the waist to sag, so women should choose a slightly harder bed during pregnancy. When choosing shoes, choose shoes with two centimeters heels. Flat shoes or high heels may aggravate the symptoms of low back pain.

4. Massage

Massage on the waist can also relieve the symptoms of low back pain during pregnancy. Therefore, women can have their families massage their backs during pregnancy. If they want to get better results, they can apply hot compress to their waist before massage, using hot towels or hot water bottles. Usually, massage can get better results after half an hour of hot compress, because the blood circulation in the waist will become better.

5. Do a good job of keeping warm

Cold at the waist will also make the symptoms of low back pain of pregnant mothers more serious, so keep warm at the waist and abdomen during pregnancy. If the symptoms of low back pain can be alleviated by various methods, and there is a more and more serious trend, then it should be treated as soon as possible to avoid abortion.

6. Maintain the correct sitting posture and standing posture

With the extension of pregnancy, the pregnant mother's abdomen will become bigger and bigger, so it is necessary to maintain the correct posture to prevent the occurrence of low back pain. The correct standing posture is to spread your legs slightly, straighten your back, hold your chest out, and slightly close your chin. The correct sitting posture is not to oppress the abdomen.

Tips

Pregnant women with low back pain should also pay special attention to their diet, and eat more foods rich in calcium and various vitamins, such as meat, eggs and fruits and vegetables. Because of calcium deficiency or vitamin deficiency, the symptoms of low back pain will be aggravated, and it will also affect the growth and development of the fetus.

In addition, pregnant mothers should slow down when doing all kinds of exercises. Don't suddenly stand up or sit down, and when standing up or sitting down, it is best to find something that can help, so as to avoid a strong impact on the waist and abdomen. Pregnant mothers should also maintain a good mood. Bad mood is not only harmful to their own health, but also affects the growth and development of the fetus. When they are in a bad mood, they can chat with others or do things they like, such as listening to music.
