After pregnancy, the levels of estrogen and progesterone in a woman's body gradually increase, leading to various early pregnancy symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and chest pain. These symptoms can generally be gradually relieved after three months of pregnancy. After four months of pregnancy, pregnant women can feel fetal movement. So, is it normal to have a hard belly at four months of pregnancy?
A hard belly at four months of pregnancy is generally a normal condition, which may be caused by false contractions. Pregnant women who maintain a certain posture for a long time, such as sitting or standing for a long time, are prone to developing a hard belly. Don't worry too much, you can rest more appropriately and not maintain one posture for a long time, which can quickly relieve symptoms.
If there is abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding in addition to a hard belly, it may be a threatened miscarriage. It is necessary to go to the hospital for B-ultrasound examination in a timely manner. If it is determined to be a threatened miscarriage, bed rest is necessary to protect the fetus. During the pregnancy protection period, be careful not to walk around casually and maintain lower body hygiene to avoid infection.
Pregnant women should pay attention to rest more, have a light diet, eat more fruits and vegetables, promote intestinal peristalsis, and avoid spicy and overly stimulating foods during mid pregnancy. At the same time, it is necessary to maintain a good mentality and not be too nervous. In addition, it is important to rest more, avoid staying up late, and avoid vigorous exercise. If there is a threatened miscarriage, it is important not to have sexual intercourse.
