Generally, if a woman becomes pregnant, her body will gradually experience various reactions that are different from usual, such as vomiting or suddenly liking food that she used to dislike. Everyone's physique is different, so the reactions that occur after pregnancy become "colorful and diverse" as a result. Although most of these reactions can be unbearable, expectant parents can laugh uncontrollably without experiencing these unusual reactions, because everyone believes that having these reactions indicates a normal pregnancy and therefore a normal baby. So, when do pregnancy reactions start?
After becoming pregnant, everyone will be very happy, but at the same time, they are very anxious about everything related to pregnancy. Some people know that they are pregnant but have not noticed any different reactions in their bodies, gradually wondering if they are abnormal? Is it still not time yet? In fact, pregnancy reactions do not occur immediately from the moment of conception, but rather after a period of time. There is no need to panic or overthink. Generally, pregnant women will experience an increase in chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) levels, decreased gastric acid secretion, and prolonged gastric emptying time around 6 weeks of pregnancy. As a result, pregnant women may experience a series of reactions such as dizziness, fatigue, loss of appetite, preference for acidic foods, nausea due to inability to eat greasy foods, and morning sickness. These reactions are collectively referred to as pregnancy reactions.
The main principle of pregnancy response is the joint action of hormones and HCG, which generally occurs in the early stages of pregnancy. Additionally, the symptoms and duration of pregnancy reactions may vary depending on individual differences in physical fitness. As for the timing of pregnancy reactions, it is related to the individual constitution of the pregnant woman, and most of them will occur around 40 days after menopause. Some pregnant women may not experience pregnancy symptoms, which is related to the hormone levels in their bodies. The most common pregnancy reactions are nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, insomnia, fatigue, etc.
Don't think that pregnancy reactions will occur throughout the entire pregnancy period. In fact, as the baby in the belly develops and stabilizes, the pregnant woman's pregnancy reactions will also decrease or even become more pronounced. The doctor said that most pregnant women will experience a natural disappearance of pregnancy symptoms around the 12th week of pregnancy, so there is no need for special treatment. During the period of 0-12 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus in the belly of a pregnant woman is undergoing a severe differentiation stage, which can lead to a series of physical changes in the woman. Similarly, after 12 weeks of pregnancy, the development of the fetus in the belly has basically taken shape, and the reactions will become less severe as a result, which is why the pregnancy reactions will naturally alleviate or disappear.
Pregnancy is a big deal, and in order to give birth to a healthy baby, one must be very careful during pregnancy. Pregnant women should maintain a relaxed mood by watching movies, visiting friends' homes, or strolling in the park to alleviate pregnancy related symptoms; At the same time, it is necessary to persist in eating, because eating is for the healthy development of children; If you like sour food, just eat it. Dried plums, dried oranges, and other dried fruits are more recommended and can also increase appetite. Eating some cold dishes in moderation is also possible, as it can enhance appetite. If possible, regular meals can be constantly changed to enhance appetite; Pay attention to resting more and exercising appropriately in daily life to maintain a clean and ventilated indoor environment; In terms of diet, it is important to pay attention to nutritional balance, with a focus on light meals and frequent meals.
