Pregnant women may experience significant physical discomfort in the early stages, but in the later stages of rapid baby development, an enlarged uterus can inevitably cause abnormalities in the digestive system. During pregnancy, the secretion of digestive fluids from the gastrointestinal tract is low, and the large intestine absorbs excessive water, leading to constipation. So, when does constipation end during pregnancy?
During pregnancy, if a pregnant woman has limited mobility, less physical activity, and a high nutrient diet, it can increase the frequency of constipation during pregnancy. As long as the use of dietary fiber foods, fruits, and vegetables is controlled reasonably, there will be improvement. Generally, in the later stages of pregnancy, the uterus of pregnant women will descend, the internal organs will return to their original position, the digestive function of the pregnant women's gastrointestinal tract will be strengthened, and constipation will be slightly relieved.
To improve constipation during pregnancy, the first step is to start with the pregnant woman's diet and lifestyle habits. Improve the phenomenon of picky eating during pregnancy by consuming more coarse grains, fruits, and vegetables such as oats, brown rice, bananas, apples, celery, spinach, etc. In addition, pregnant women should adhere to sleeping on time every day, not staying up late, and going to bed early and getting up early.
Secondly, it is necessary to develop the habit of regular bowel movements. When experiencing constipation during pregnancy, it is important to use the toilet regularly. Do not be lazy or unwilling to move around because of pregnancy. Over time, constipation during pregnancy will become more severe, which can easily lead to the occurrence of hemorrhoids.
