During pregnancy, the first three months are called early pregnancy. During this period, the abdomen is not yet obvious, but the body may experience some pregnancy reactions. From four months to six months of pregnancy is mid pregnancy, during which the fetus will continue to develop and the belly will become more obvious. At the same time, the fetus may experience fetal movement. What is the reason for hand numbness at seven months of pregnancy?
Seven months of pregnancy is in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, during which the fetus is rapidly developing and the mother's uterus is constantly being stretched. While the uterus is being stretched, it can compress the veins, causing poor blood flow and leading to numbness in the hands or feet. It is recommended to massage and take appropriate walks to promote blood circulation.
What should mothers pay attention to in the middle and late stages of pregnancy?
1. Calcium supplementation. During the middle and late stages of pregnancy, mothers should pay attention to supplementing calcium. Many mothers experience joint pain and frequent cramps at night. In addition to excessive pressure on the body's joints and leg muscles, calcium deficiency is also one of the culprits. Therefore, mothers should pay attention to supplementing calcium and vitamin D, which can help refine the absorption of calcium.
2. Sleeping posture. When sleeping at night, some pregnant women's pillows can be placed on both sides of the body, which can reduce the pressure on the abdomen when turning over, regardless of the direction facing.
3. Pay attention to emotions. Try to maintain a cheerful mood as the ups and downs can easily lead to premature birth.
