Pregnancy is a crucial period for pregnant women. However, many pregnant women may experience some physical discomfort, such as nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and drowsiness. These are normal phenomena that are generally related to hormonal changes in the pregnant woman's body. However, what is the reason for the pain, swelling, and redness on both sides of the pregnant woman's buttocks?
The pain and redness on both sides of a pregnant woman's buttocks may be related to the increase in gestational age and fetal growth. This situation usually occurs in mid pregnancy, as the uterus continues to grow, it will compress the pelvic blood vessels and nerves. Generally, this phenomenon will improve on its own after delivery, so pregnant women do not need to worry too much.
In addition, pregnant women can frequently change their position when sleeping, and try to avoid climbing stairs up and down as much as possible. They should also try to avoid lifting heavy objects to avoid aggravating pain and discomfort. They should not walk in damp and slippery places. When feeling pain, they should rest in bed, generally in the left side position, and regularly undergo prenatal check ups to see if the fetus is developing normally in the body.
If pregnant women also feel pain while sleeping, it may also be caused by calcium deficiency. Fetal growth and development require a large amount of calcium, and insufficient intake can easily cause discomfort symptoms. Therefore, pregnant women should also pay attention to calcium supplementation and expose themselves to more sunlight to help absorb calcium.
