Many expectant mothers say, 'During pregnancy, I always feel inexplicably irritable, and even when faced with small things, I can't help but get angry. After thinking about it, I shouldn't have done this, but I can't control myself.' What's going on? How can expectant mothers get rid of irritability and have a happy pregnancy?
Why is expectant mother always irritable during pregnancy?
Expectant mothers often feel irritable during pregnancy, which is a normal emotional response during pregnancy. Medically, this phenomenon is called "habitual irritability". Expectant mothers do not need to worry too much! But if this phenomenon persists, it will inevitably affect work and life, so expectant mothers should learn to get rid of irritability and become happy pregnant mothers!
How can expectant mothers get rid of irritability?
1. Understand what you like (food, colors, songs, movies, books, places, gifts).
2. Going to and from work, as long as time permits, you can choose some different routes, and you may have some unexpected discoveries.
3. Develop a schedule that conforms to physiological laws. Do brain intensive work in the morning, simple mechanical work around 14:00-15:00 in the afternoon, and continue until around 17:00 when the brain regains vitality before engaging in some brain intensive activities.
4. Try some fresh things to stimulate your brain. For example, learning to knit a sweater for a baby, or learning to use a paintbrush to depict the image of a baby in their belly.
5. Accept different sensory stimuli, taste your favorite food more, touch things that interest you more, and smell smells that make you feel happy. This will give oneself pleasure and constantly secrete substances from the brain that increase immunity.
6. Raise a few flowers and plants. First, buy a book on flower cultivation to learn, and then choose a few that can purify the air and are easy to maintain. When you have nothing to do, you can talk to flowers and plants, and it can also be used as a form of prenatal education for babies.
7. Take advantage of the weekend to visit the aquarium, where the fish swimming around in the water will completely relax your body and mind.
8. Enjoy the tranquility brought by darkness. The human body only produces enough melatonin in the dark. Lack of sleep or too bright light during sleep can reduce the release of melatonin, which may lead to insomnia or anxiety.
9. Watch less TV dramas with tragic and complex plots, and watch more guessing programs. You can compete with your expectant father to see who can guess faster, which can fully release the pressure on your brain.
