Abdominal pain in early pregnancy

Introduction

Introduction In the first trimester, some abdominal pains are physiological, that is, because of the normal reaction caused by pregnancy, but some are pathological, which may indicate a crisis such as abortion. Physiological abdominal pain: In the early pregnancy, many expectant mothers always feel some stomach pain, sometimes accompanied by vomiting and other early pregnancy reactions, which are mainly caused by increased gastric acid secretion during the first trimester. At this time, pay attention to diet and nutrition. The diet should be light and easy to digest. For breakfast, you can eat some baked taro slices or soda crackers. With the end of the first trimester, discomfort will naturally disappear. Pathological abdominal pain: abdominal pain in the first trimester, especially in the lower abdomen, should first be considered as a pregnancy complication. Common complications include threatened abortion and ectopic pregnancy. 1. In the first few months of pregnancy, if the mother has paroxysmal abdominal pain or regular abdominal pain, low back pain, or pelvic pain, the problem may be more complicated. If accompanied by vaginal punctiform hemorrhage or a noticeable fall in the abdomen, it may indicate a threatened abortion. Expectant mothers should be less active, stay in bed, do not take care of things, do not lift heavy objects, and add water to see a doctor. If the pain worsens or continues to bleed, you need to see a doctor immediately. 2, if there is severe pain in the unilateral lower abdomen, accompanied by vaginal bleeding or fainting, may be ectopic pregnancy, should go to the hospital immediately.
