Should master the correct sleeping posture when resting . The left side position can reduce the compression of the uterine internal organs and ensure the uterus and fetus.
If the lumbar spine has pain during pregnancy, it is because the growth of the fetus has increased the burden on the waist of the pregnant woman, resulting in chronic damage to the waist. In response to this situation, hot compresses or plasters can be used to relieve the pain on the painful part of the lumbar spine, and usually reduce the time of sitting for a long time. Walk around more appropriately on weekdays, and don’t bend over to lift heavy objects. Pregnant women are not suitable for sleeping in a bed that is too soft. They should choose a bed that suits them with moderate hardness. Try not to choose a soft bed. Because only a bed with a little stiffness is better for the lumbar spine. Pay attention to avoiding cold in the waist and abdomen, try to reduce the lower waist movement, or do body squatting activities, and try to avoid sitting for long periods of time. In order to protect the fetus during this period, it is best to rest in bed to avoid strain on the back muscles. It is best to wear flat shoes when going out, so that the feet are evenly stressed.
Recommendation: Try not to lift heavy objects and do not bend over for a long time. Get rid of bad sleeping, sitting and standing positions, need calcium supplements, drink more milk and eat more protein foods, keep your mood comfortable, and don’t worry too much.
