Pregnant mothers like to sleep on their side. What are the stresses on the left and right sides?

Hello, I'm Mianyu, and I have different wonderful information to share with you every day.

Today, let's talk about it. Pregnant mothers like to sleep on their side. What's going on on the left and right?

Most doctors suggest lying on the left side, which is good for both the fetus and pregnant women, but it should not be too rigid, and both sides take turns sleeping. Pay attention to lying on the left side.

Let me talk about the specific reasons first.

Why did the first doctor suggest lying on the left?

During pregnancy, the baby and uterus in the pregnant woman's stomach will gradually increase with the growth of gestational age. As the stomach is so big, the enlarged uterus will oppress the two large blood vessels behind the uterus, hinder blood circulation and affect the blood supply of the fetus.

Left lateral decubitus can help relieve the pressure on large blood vessels and ensure good blood supply. In addition, the left lateral position can reduce the pressure of large blood vessels, make blood return smooth, relieve symptoms such as edema of lower limbs and pelvic congestion, improve systemic blood circulation, and reduce the probability of pregnancy-induced hypertension to some extent.

Second? Some effects of lying on the right side

Because during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, the uterus of pregnant women will be in a relatively right-handed state. If you sleep to the right, it is easy to make the uterine vascular tension too large, which will also affect its blood supply.

With the help of the left lateral position, the right-handed state of the uterus can be corrected artificially to ensure the blood supply, which is also the supply of oxygen and nutrition needed by the fetus.

The third specific situation depends on the personal habits of pregnant women.

Although the doctor talked a lot, it should be based on the personal habits of pregnant women. Before the fetus is four months old, because the baby is small and there are not so many taboos, so don't be so rigid. After four months, when the fetus grows up, pregnant women should pay more attention. Besides sleeping position, nutrition and mood also have great influence on the fetus.

abstract

Pregnancy is a milestone for women. Not only will she become a mother from now on, but the whole process of pregnancy is also difficult. Many pregnant women have vomiting, edema and mobility problems, but for the sake of their children and a healthy baby, mothers are happily enduring it. Motherly love is great.
