Many pregnant women experience great pressure during early pregnancy, often accompanied by early pregnancy symptoms. However, the reactions of different pregnant women during early pregnancy are often different, and the manifestations are also complex. Early pregnancy can increase the physical pain of female friends and often lead to insomnia. So, how to regulate insomnia in early pregnancy?
Firstly, the effect of progesterone is that pregnant women's emotions can fluctuate greatly and their nerves are particularly sensitive. This is often due to small things causing them to become agitated and their ability to withstand stress will decrease. In addition, the fear of having a baby can also have an impact, as the fetus is in the abdomen, which can easily cause emotional fear, leading to depression and insomnia.
Secondly, during pregnancy, the growth of the uterus can compress the pregnant woman's bladder, and expectant mothers may feel troubled by frequent urination, which seriously affects the quality of sleep. Many pregnant women also have spasms, most of which may occur during sleep, making it easy to cause insomnia.
For insomnia in the early stages of pregnancy, expectant mothers should generally avoid eating bloating foods. Some foods can cause gas to be produced in the stomach, making the expectant mother feel bloated and painful, which hinders normal sleep. Examples include beans, cabbage, onions, greens, cabbage, green peppers, eggplants, potatoes, sweet potatoes, taro, corn, bananas, bread, citrus fruits and beverages, as well as desserts with xylitol (a sweetener). Avoid eating spicy and salty foods before bedtime. Spicy foods such as chili peppers, garlic, ginger, and onions can cause heartburn and poor digestion in the expectant mother's stomach, which can also affect the quality of her sleep.
