Why does a pregnant woman feel sour in the mouth?

Pregnant women will often feel sour in their mouths, do not want to eat anything, have no interest in any food, and everything they eat has no taste. This will cause the pregnant women's daily nutrient intake to be poor, leading to fetal maldevelopment in the body, so this symptom must be adjusted in time. The easiest way is to drink more soda water. If you persist in doing this for a long time, the sour mouth condition will be alleviated.

main reason :

1. In terms of diet, when you feel sour, eat some soda crackers, something without any taste is fine. It is best not to eat sweet things, otherwise you will lose sight of the big picture. It’s okay to drink some soda water, but don’t drink the carbonated one. Check the ingredients before buying. Don’t buy soda water drinks, which contain all kinds of things.

2. In terms of daily life, raising the pillow a little higher when sleeping can reduce the degree of digestive juice reflux. You can eat some of the above foods before going to bed to ensure that there is something in your stomach to neutralize part of the gastric juice. When getting up, don't be in a hurry, get up slowly. Getting up too quickly may cause vomiting.

3. In addition, you can drink small amounts of water several times to continuously neutralize stomach acid. Of course, sometimes the feeling of hunger is not real hunger, but may be a physiological reaction of stomach acid rising.

4. Many pregnant women experience stomach acid reactions in the early stages of pregnancy. A sour mouth caused by stomach acid is a normal reaction. It is recommended that pregnant women take some folic acid in the first three months to prevent anemia caused by iron and folic acid deficiency. Eating some soda crackers and alkaline foods will provide some relief. As long as you keep a happy mood, stable emotions, pay attention to rest, ensure adequate sleep, eliminate adverse stimulation, eat small meals frequently, and choose light, delicious, nutritious and easily digestible foods, for most people, the symptoms of excessive stomach acid secretion and sour mouth will disappear on their own after 12 weeks of pregnancy.

This situation may be reflux gastritis, also known as alkaline reflux gastritis, which refers to a syndrome of upper abdominal pain, vomiting of bile, abdominal distension, weight loss, etc. caused by the reflux of bile into the stomach. It can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine.

Spicy and hot seasoning. Chili, Sichuan pepper, pepper, cumin, star anise, cinnamon, five-spice powder, etc. can easily consume intestinal moisture and reduce the secretion of gastric glands, causing stomach pain, intestinal dryness, hemorrhoids, constipation or fecal obstruction. When constipated, pregnant women hold their breath and forcefully defecate, which increases abdominal pressure and compresses the fetus in the uterus, which can easily cause fetal distress, premature rupture of amniotic fluid, spontaneous abortion, premature birth and other adverse consequences. Many pregnant mothers like to eat sour hawthorn, but hawthorn has a stimulating effect on the uterus. Excessive consumption can cause uterine contraction and lead to miscarriage, so eat less.
