Pregnancy lower abdominal pain

Abdominal distension and pain when you are just pregnant is a normal physiological phenomenon. You don’t need to worry too much. I hope pregnant women should be aware of the symptoms of pregnancy. In addition to lower abdominal distension and pain when you first become pregnant, you may also experience symptoms such as nausea, morning sickness, and enlarged breasts. The lower abdominal distension and pain is caused by the development of the fetus, and the expansion of the uterus during pregnancy can also cause lower abdominal distension and pain.

Lower abdominal pain in early pregnancy

Some symptoms will appear in the early stages of pregnancy, such as amenorrhea, nausea and vomiting, enlarged and sensitive breasts, fatigue, implantation bleeding, abdominal distension, etc. These are some symptoms of early pregnancy. Therefore, mild abdominal distension and pain in the early stages of pregnancy is normal and you don’t need to worry too much. However, if the pain is severe and there is a small amount of vaginal bleeding, usually dark red or bloody leucorrhea, followed by paroxysmal lower abdominal pain or back pain, then you should be alert to the symptoms of miscarriage. It's time to go to the hospital.

What causes abdominal distension and pain in early pregnancy?

1. Abdominal pain is caused by irregular contraction of the uterus

2. From the early stages of pregnancy to the late stages of pregnancy, most pregnant mothers will feel their belly getting harder. In fact, this is an irregular contraction of the uterus. The intervals and duration of uterine contractions are long and short. Relatively speaking, the duration of uterine contractions in early pregnancy will be shorter, and may become longer and longer in late pregnancy. Generally speaking, there is no pain, but some pregnant women can feel it obviously. After the second trimester, the uterus rapidly enlarges and the ligaments around the uterus change from their original relaxed state to a tense state, especially the pair of round ligaments located on the front side of the uterus, which can also cause traction pain.

After the introduction of the above content, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the symptoms of early pregnancy. Early pregnancy is a very critical period. At this time, both pregnant women and family members must pay attention to the condition of pregnant women and make good nutritional preparations. At the same time, they should also pay attention to let pregnant women avoid contact with toxic and harmful substances and do a good job of radiation protection.
