Dreams About Being Pregnant: Dream Meanings Explained

Pregnancy Dreams (dreamsleep.net)

Dreams in Pregnancy - Pregnant women often dream intensively. And the images from the head cinema they often pursue even the next day. Where does this phenomenon and how can mothers with that best?

Silke R. Plagge

"Very happy I strolled past the windows. Suddenly I realized that I had no stroller. My baby! I had lost my baby. As fast as I could, I ran back up the escalator, and wandered through the store. Then I woke up sweating, "says Janine.

Nina was about to give birth a different dream: "Again and again I dreamed of swimming in the sea. Although I only had fear, it was just the waves that inspired me then and it was a wonderful feeling of being at one with the tides. “The dream gave her a sense of strength.

During pregnancy is the nightly Kopfkino particularly intense

Many pregnant women report that they feel they have to dream more than usual - and different. "Pregnant women dream actually a lot and can often intensely remember their dreams," says psychologist Dr. Patricia Garfield. "Many dreams are closely related to the pregnancy and are dependent, in which trimester, the expectant mother is and how she is physically."

Pregnant women are particularly affected by hormones. Especially the pregnancy hormone progesterone should be at fault for the mothers-to-be wake up just before the end of REM sleep - and for this reason are especially likely remember the dreamed. The conversion of the body causes especially that pregnant women are so often tired - and more sleep. "The more you sleep, the more you dream about it," says Dr. Garfield.

But the excitement of mental cinema is explained not only with physical sensitivities. "The pregnancy and the impending birth of a new life with a woman child presents many questions. Anticipation, anxiety or fears occupy their subconscious, "says the sleep psychologist Günther W. Amann-Jennson. Especially towards the end of pregnancy, there is many women as if they dream intensively. This is because, explains the expert Patricia Garfield, that sleeping is becoming increasingly difficult and is frequently interrupted - for example when the baby in the belly to have a bowel movement or turning over in bed is no longer possible.

Who wakes up frequently recalls more often in the dreams. Of emotions, details and colors. For those that can sleep through the night, usually remember most of the last dream before waking.

The Würzburg gynecologist Jael jaw wanted to know what dream pregnant, and studied for a year over 160 dreams of pregnant women. Most of the dreams revolved around the topics of pregnancy, birth and baby. Even everyday and serious problems have been addressed. It was interesting that many of the pregnant women reported significant visual dream content. A phenomenon that even the American Patricia Garfield confirmed. She has written an article on "Pregnancy and Birth Dreams" and dealt extensively with the symbolism.

The images of dreams are different at different stages of pregnancy. They reflect not only the physical but also the emotional sensibilities of the pregnant again, their hopes and fears.

Dreams at the beginning of pregnancy

Lush Mediterranean gardens, juicy fruits and beautiful meadows are just at the beginning of pregnancy most often symbolize the Träumen.Sie for fertility and conception. Water is also a symbol that in common in early pregnancy - but also in other stages of pregnancy always thematically occurs. "The baby floats in the amniotic fluid - often the mother is with him in the same dream, and dreams of weightlessness in the water," says Garfield.

Typical of the early phase of pregnancy are different dreams about imposing buildings or houses. They stand for the awareness that change the body or even the predictable lives. Some women dream of also repeated to carry very heavy weights or by burglars. Here anxiety is manifested before the next load and the feeling of helplessness.

In the middle of pregnancy physicality plays an important role

From the 4th Month of pregnancy, the pregnancy is physically more present. The belly rounded out, the pants do not fit and the pounds come a week apparently. Even the baby is growing significantly. Many women feel at this stage of pregnancy very fit, the nausea has mostly stopped and the body is bleeding profusely.

Suddenly, there are also very strong erotic dreams. And dreams in the ex-boyfriends play a role or be a partner with another woman turns. All of these dreams are for dealing with their own attractiveness - and the changing body.

Some women also report that they are in the second trimester a lot of small animals dream, which they supply or that their own mother frequently appears in dream imagery. Patricia Garfield deuttet this as a symbol of the fact that pregnant women are more concerned because she is a mother soon.

Shortly before birth, the most intense dreams

In the third trimester, dreams are remembered vividly and often seem very symbolic. This is of course the fact that the mother now more likely to wake up and can not remember more. "In the third trimester, many women dream very intensely from her baby. Some dream that their child has them reveal his name, "said Patricia Garfield.

Dreams about traveling, Pack your bags and wandering through completely unknown locations are typical. They stand for the fear of the unknown. Even the fear of forgetting the baby, it accidentally like a doll to break anything or it just can not find often. This is clearly the fear of the mother's role and responsibility. Even women who are very happy to have her child and relaxed pregnant can have such dreams.

Especially a lot of dreams of pregnant women in late pregnancy revolve around the theme of birth. Some women dream of elements such as water, which they carry. Very many women dream of having labor pains - and some have actually been first practice contractions at night and handle this in a dream. The fear of childbirth, dreams in which it comes to his own death, blood loss and fear of utter helplessness have, especially primiparas.

Interestingly, an Israeli study: It found that women with birth nightmares often have lighter and shorter deliveries. Probably because they have already been taken up so much with the topic.

Dreams can be considered as guides to the soul

Beautiful colorful dreams can soothe. Some dreams are hard to interpret. Others leave terrible feelings and fears. What about when a heavily pregnant over and over again dreams of her baby, the umbilical cord around his neck?

Such dreams and fears should be taken seriously. If an expectant mother really cares about the welfare of their child, they should discuss this openly with the woman doctor - an ultrasound can show the umbilical cord, for example. Other incriminating dreams should be addressed - perhaps a reason to be found.

Who particularly exciting and symbolic dreams should be possible down a dream diary. Lay right next to the bed and write in a notebook right after waking up, advises the author Eileen Stukane. Thus, the feelings and also the details are still present. A dream journal can later be an interesting reminder of the time of pregnancy - and also help you understand your feelings better. Sometimes it may also do well to talk about the nocturnal fantasies and images with a friend.

Or with his father-in-law. Fathers dream itself namely often very intense. If you manage to couple to talk openly about dreams Both succeed far better to address their own fears and the new living situation. A wonderful foundation for the common relationship and for its new role as parents.

Vaginal discharge during pregnancy

noreply@blogger.com (Angels Birt) — Wed, 22 Aug 2012 13:38:00 +0000

Is it my imagination or do I have a lot more vaginal discharge now?

It's not your imagination. It's quite common to have more vaginal discharge during pregnancy.

What you're noticing is probably normal leukorrhea – the odorless or mild-smelling milky discharge that you may have noticed in your underwear before you were pregnant. There's just a lot more of it now, partly because of increased estrogen production and greater blood flow to the vaginal area. This discharge is made up of secretions from the cervix and vagina, old cells from the walls of the vagina, and normal bacterial flora from the vagina.

You'll probably notice more vaginal discharge as you approach labor, although it's likely to look somewhat different from the flow you've become accustomed to.

In very early pregnancy, cervical secretions filled your cervical canal and created a protective barrier – the so-called mucus plug. As your cervix begins to efface (thin out) and dilate (open up), it may expel this mucus, and you'll notice discharge that looks like egg white or mucus from a runny nose on a cold day. You may even expel the plug in one gelatinous glob. This discharge might be tinged with a bit of blood.

When should I call my caregiver?

If there's a lot of thin, clear discharge, it can be hard for you to tell if it's just mucus or if you're leaking amniotic fluid. If you have any doubt, contact your midwife or doctor.

Call your practitioner right away if you're not yet at 37 weeks and you notice an increase in discharge or a change in the type of discharge (if it becomes watery, mucus-like, or bloody – even if it's just tinged with pink or brownish old blood). This can be a sign of preterm labor.

You should also call your caregiver if you suspect that you have an infection. If you have an odorless, whitish discharge that's causing you discomfort such as pain with urination or intercourse, soreness, itching, or burning – or your vulva looks inflamed – you might have a yeast infection.

If you notice a thin white or gray discharge with a fishy smell after sex (when the discharge mixes with semen), you may have a different kind of vaginal infection called bacterial vaginosis.

If your discharge is yellow or green and frothy with an unpleasant odor, you may have trichomoniasis, a common sexually transmitted infection. Other possible symptoms of trichomoniasis (or trich) include a red, irritated, or itchy vulva or vagina and discomfort while urinating or during intercourse.

If your discharge is foul-smelling or frothy or yellow, green, or gray, you might have a different kind of vaginal infection or a sexually transmitted infection, even if you don't have symptoms of irritation, itching, or burning.

In any case, if you think you have an infection, don't try to treat yourself with over-the-counter medications. The symptoms aren't always easy to distinguish, so it's important to first see your practitioner for a diagnosis to make sure you get appropriate treatment.

Is there anything I can do about all this discharge?

If the discharge is not due to an infection, there's nothing you can do to stop the flow, but you can use panty liners to absorb it if you need to. (Don't use tampons during pregnancy.)

To keep your genital area healthy, keep it clean, always wipe from front to back, and wear cotton underwear. Avoid tight pants, nylons, bubble bath, scented pads or toilet paper, feminine hygiene sprays, and scented or deodorant soaps.

And don't douche – douching can upset the normal balance of vaginal flora and increase your risk of a vaginal infection. What's more, doctors and midwives discourage douching during pregnancy because in rare cases it can introduce air into your circulatory system through the vagina, which can cause serious complications.

Amniotic fluid is the aqueous fluid that surrounds the baby / fetus within the womb. The amniotic fluid, the baby / fetus to move freely without the hindrance caused by the uterine walls to closely around him. At the same time helps them a damping fluid in the uterus and the fetus are buoyant.

The amniotic fluid begins to fill up the amniotic sac of about 2 weeks after fertilization. Another 10 weeks later, the fluid contains various proteins, carbohydrates, electrolytes, lipids, phospholipids, and even urea, which provide nutrition to the fetus. Towards the later stages of pregnancy, amniotic fluid and fetal urine Included start. It was also discovered recently that the amniotic fluid also contains non-embryonic stem cells.

Leaking of amniotic fluid

Normally, if the pregnancy is completed the entire term, begins the membranes of the amniotic sac burst, and the amniotic fluid leak through the vagina. This is called "Spontaneous Blasensprung'Oder SROM. In common parlance, this is known as the time when a woman's water breaks. "

However, there are times when the amniotic sac can cause a tear or rupture the amniotic fluid leak can develop before term. If this occurs 37 to 38 weeks before the event, it is called "Premature rupture of membranes Membrane'Oder PROM.

If one of these conditions occurs, the fluid can trickle or gush out only just like a leak in a continuous discharge.

If the premature rupture of the amniotic sac occurs, it is necessary to determine the cause of the leakage of amniotic fluid. Usually the leak is caused by a bacterial infection or by a defect in the structure of the amniotic sac or of the uterus or cervix. The mother-to-be is not douche or have sexual intercourse advise when the water breaks.

This leakage can lead to further complications in the growth of the fetus, as it may interfere with the growth of the fetus and can cause bacterial infections to spread from the vagina into the uterus, and thus to the fetus.

However, if the leaking amniotic fluid is the result of a severe rupture of the amniotic sac, then work can begin within 48 hours. When this happens, the mother-to-be must get treatment to avoid that. Infection of the fetus

Often what amniotic fluid leaking as thought can only turn out to be the urine. Must therefore be considered in such cases, the mother-to-be, whether the fluid is urine or not.

In such cases, most doctors will usually deliver the baby within 24 hours in order to avoid the risk of infection.

Nowadays, many are testing over the counter products, whether the fluid is urine or amniotic fluid. It is always recommended that you take advantage of these tests, to ensure the health of the baby.

After a few nights, your body will have, however, and accustomed to sleeping in a different position you pose no more problems.

Lying on your back during pregnancy is not exactly pleasant, and is off limits in the late months of pregnancy. With increasing weight of the uterus presses in this position more and more on your spine. In this case, blood vessels are clamped temporarily, which is harmless at first, but you can still take your sleep. Try this happens, just another lying position.

Menstruation during pregnancy

You might think that "menstruation during pregnancy" may be an oxymoron. The common belief is that once a woman conceives, her menstrual period stops immediately. The main evidence that the woman can get pregnant when you miss a period so it follows that if a term must not be pregnant.

Menstruation during pregnancy in misconception or truth?

In principle, menstruation during pregnancy is simply irrelevant. It 's really an effect of an oxymoron. It 'very cautious, however, "never say never", but some claims are needed to guide our daily lives and to avoid confusion.

The collection of this issue of menstruation during pregnancy is not because it is complex to understand. This is simply because the word-of-mouth about women, has gained some popularity among women and it seems as if it is true. In reality, what motivates you is the word that ... "A relative or friend here told us that she had her period during pregnancy."

Not all vaginal bleeding Menstruation

The main error in this misconception is that proponents of this idea to take any short uterine bleeding "rules". Even a woman who is pregnant, menstruation is not synonymous with vaginal bleeding. Menstrual bleeding is a well defined process resulting from known physiological hormonal interactions. Menstruation is one type of bleeding from the vagina, which is not a disease!

The different types of uterine bleeding results by different mechanisms. Pregnancy hormones are menstruating can not be. Indeed, the presence of pregnancy abolished menstruation. Why? The typical pattern of hormone during the menstrual cycle resulting in menstruation can occur during pregnancy. The bleeding is not caused by this interaction is unknown hormonal menstruation, although the cause still another vaginal bleeding.

It is important to recognize, because bleeding "menstrual-like" during pregnancy warrants medical attention. Labeling errors that menstruation can lead to adverse outcomes. However, there are fewer episodes of vaginal bleeding that can occur during pregnancy.

Beware of bleeding during pregnancy

Bleeding during pregnancy can have many causes. As a matter of fact, bleeding during pregnancy should not be taken lightly because of its potential negative impact on the mother and embryo or fetus.

The severity and probable causes of bleeding during pregnancy varies with age of pregnancy. A very common cause of vaginal bleeding that women are most often confused with menstruation during pregnancy is bleeding slightly from 13 days the implanted embryo in early pregnancy. Since that coincides with the date of menstruation due to the majority of women with cycles of about 27 to 30 days, it is very easy to take it for menstruation.

There are also known causes of bleeding from the vagina, also intermittent bleeding, such as placenta previa (diagnosed in the third quarter), which may be preceded by brief periods of intermittent vaginal bleeding during the second quarter.

Therefore, to maintain a fundamental statement is that "not all vaginal bleeding is menstruation. The presence of a physiologically impossible to make pregnancy hormone necessary process of menstruation. Menstruation is a normal physiological process driven by a precise game known hormones.

Nausea During Pregnancy

Question:
Nausea during pregnancy: A good thing?
Is nausea during pregnancy a good sign?

Nausea and vomiting during the first trimester of pregnancy, also called morning sickness, can be signs of a healthy pregnancy. A recent study of more than 2,400 pregnant women associated nausea and vomiting during the first trimester with a reduced risk of early pregnancy loss — particularly for women age 30 and older.

Shortly after a fertilized egg attaches to your uterine lining, your body begins to produce a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). While the cause of nausea during pregnancy isn't clear, nausea typically begins when production of HCG begins. As a result, nausea during pregnancy might indicate that you're experiencing the normal climb in pregnancy hormones needed for a healthy pregnancy.

Other theories suggest that nausea during pregnancy might:

Reduce fetal exposure to potentially dangerous substances in your diet
Encourage you to eat foods that contain certain nutrients, such as those rich in carbohydrates
Prompt you to adjust your activity level to favor maternal and fetal tissue growth

A lack of nausea during pregnancy, however, isn't necessarily a cause for concern. Some women simply might be immune to the effects of pregnancy hormones. In addition, nausea can sometimes signal a problem. For instance, severe nausea and vomiting can indicate a molar pregnancy — when the placenta develops into an abnormal mass of cysts rather than becoming a viable pregnancy — or hyperemesis gravidarum, a condition that causes you to lose weight and body fluids and might require treatment with intravenous fluids and medications.

If you're concerned about morning sickness or wonder whether your morning sickness is normal, consult your health care provider

Indigestion During Pregnancy

noreply@blogger.com (Angels Birt) — Sat, 05 May 2012 01:43:00 +0000

Indigestion during pregnancy

Indigestion during pregnancy is also common during pregnancy and may occur with the heartburn. Also known as "dyspepsia", indigestion is just another name for stomach aches. You know you have indigestion if you feel very full, bloated and gaseous.

If you have indigestion during pregnancy, you may experience a number of symptoms, including:

Heartburn, a burning sensation that is caused by the passage of acid from the stomach into the gullet (esophagus)
Regurgitation (food coming back up from the stomach)
Bloating
Nausea (feeling sick)
Vomiting (being sick)

How often do the indigestion during pregnancy?

Most people are affected by indigestion during pregnancy from time to time, but women are often affected by it during pregnancy. As much as 8 in 10 women experience indigestion at some point during their pregnancy. Indigestion is increasingly common as the baby grows.

Indigestion during pregnancy is mainly due to the changes occurring in the body, such as increased levels of hormones and increased pressure on the abdomen (belly).

These changes can often result in acid reflux, the most common cause of indigestion. Acid reflux occurs when stomach acid flows back from the stomach into the gullet (esophagus) and irritates the lining (mucosa).

The causes of acidity and indigestion during pregnancy

Heartburn occurs when digested food in the stomach, containing acid, is pushed into the esophagus (the tube between the mouth and stomach). This causes a burning sensation behind the breastbone or a burning sensation that starts in the stomach and seems to rise. You can also have a bitter taste in the mouth or the feeling that vomit is rising in the throat.

Normally, food passes through the esophagus between the mouth and stomach.
When not eating, a valve to move around the lower esophagus closes the connection between the esophagus and stomach.
This valve prevents stomach acids upward.
When you swallow, the valve relaxes to allow food and fluid flow.
If the valve relaxes when you are not eating, stomach acid can reflux into the esophagus, irritating it and causing a burning sensation.

Several things can cause heartburn and indigestion, such as:

Greasy or fatty foods
Chocolate, coffee and other drinks containing caffeine
Onions, garlic or spicy foods
Certain medications
Eating a very large meal
Eating too quickly
Lying down after eating

Pregnancy hormones

During pregnancy, hormones relax the muscles in your digestive tract, including the valve in the esophagus. This allows stomach acid up the esophagus more easily, especially when you are lying. Heartburn can be worse in the second and third quarters, when the uterus is based increasingly on his stomach. This sometimes causes behind the food into the esophagus.

Pregnancy hormones also decrease:

The muscles that push food from the esophagus to the stomach
The two muscles that contract to digest the food in the stomach, which slows digestion
These changes may also lead to indigestion, which can make you feel very full, bloated and gaseous.

Acid Reflux During Pregnancy

Acid reflux during pregnancy

If you expect, then you should know that there is no relationship between acid reflux during pregnancy. In fact, over 50% of all mothers reported experiencing severe symptoms during pregnancy. Many women who have no history of acid reflux often feel for the first time after becoming pregnant and often worsens during the second and third quarters. Although there may be an exception brutally painful and boring, is quite common and, for the most totally harmless.

Acid reflux in pregnancy is a common condition in the West and not a suggestion that is increasing. Obesity is increasing in the West and since obesity can cause or aggravate acid reflux, acid reflux is likely to be increased due to a combination of our diet, lifestyle and obesity . There are, however, a group that develops acid reflux as a natural process of life. Pregnant women develop GERD symptoms due to pregnancy.

How do you treat acid reflux during pregnancy?

The safest drugs are H2 receptor antagonists, Sheth said, without a prescription. These medications include Pepcid AC and Zantac.

Closing work H2 production of stomach acid and are effective in mild cases of reflux.

The effects of more potent drugs like Nexium or Protonix (inhibitors of proton pump, or IPP) have not yet been studied in pregnant women.

Added bonuses H2: Relatively inexpensive and provide more lasting relief than antacids.

But do not take effect so soon, so Sheth suggests women take a half hour before meals or at bedtime.

Sheth said it is okay to take antacids such as Rolaids, Tums and Maalox, but with magnesium should be avoided in the third quarter, as it can cause premature labor. He says that pregnant women should not take oral medications such as Pepto Bismol suspension.

If you prefer not to take medication during pregnancy, there are natural ways to relieve heartburn.

A popular method is to eat licorice, as it is flavored with anise, which aids digestion.

Another popular method - though doctors do not know where it originated, and there is little evidence to support the application - is to drink apple cider vinegar.

However, when it comes to pregnancy and acid reflux, "it is lifestyle," said Seth. "Stay on your feet for several hours after eating and avoiding triggers such as caffeine and chocolate. For most patients, who are the majority. "

Dietary advice

It is advisable not to eat large quantities of fatty food, sauce, fruit after meals, especially ripe fruit or tomatoes that are inherently more acidic.
It was also suggested to monitor its tolerance to tea, coffee, soft drinks, as well as fried foods, spicy, pickled and chocolate.
Promote more starchy foods, eggs and milk that reduce burns by limiting gastric secretions.
Some people claim that cabbage juice works to soothe those burns! The recipe is simple: cook a cabbage (or half depending on size) in water, cut the leaves into strips and put them in food processor with water slurry to give a consistency to all "oral ". You can drink this mixture hot or cold.

And drugs?

Maalox, Tums or Gaviscon are not prohibited, but must be taken in moderation. However, attention to drug products containing sodium bicarbonate, which can alleviate the short term, but promote digestive secretions.

Constipation

Constipation is caused by the action of certain hormones on the muscles of the intestinal wall or by a obstipation. Women who are prone usually have many chances to see the problem worsen.

Recipe against constipation

Here's a little recipe quite natural that one can also give children who suffer from constipation. On a slice of whole wheat bread, the mixture works wonders

In a Pyrex cup, place a row of successively raisins, figs, dates, prunes and dried apricots.
Then add a tablespoon of corn flour.
Cover with water to a half inch above the preparation.
Let stand overnight (or slightly more), go to the blender and enjoy this spread on toast.

Simple tips to prevent constipation

Walk at least half an hour a day.
Eat foods containing fiber and drink plenty of fluids (about eight glasses of water a day).
It is recommended for those who do not have morning sickness, drinking 180 ml to 250 ml of hot water mixed with 2 tablespoons of honey, 15 minutes before breakfast.
At the morning meal, choose whole grain bread or oat cereals.
It is recommended to reduce your intake of rice, bananas or cooked carrots.
It should be noted that vitamin supplements as Materna maternity can cause constipation because they contain iron.
During the day, eat prunes or drink prune juice and promote these foods: apples, pears, lettuce, beets, cantaloupe, spinach, cabbage, leeks, nuts, beans, cucumber, eggplant, oranges, figs and plums.
We must go to the bathroom as often as possible, even when you do not want, and bring a good book, because sometimes it can be exasperating!
Finally, there are emollients or commercial supplements, if the measures listed above are not sufficient. Metamucil, for example, or soften the stool, Colace facilitate defecation, but must be taken for several ays to be effective.

Anyway, we should not neglect this problem, in addition to causing discomfort, cramps and bloating may also, it seems, to expose a urinary tract infection.

Cramps

Cramps often occur at night, aided by heat and stillness. If they occur frequently, they may indicate a deficiency of vitamin B6 that nourishes the nerve sheath.

The ideal, albeit painful, is to move the limb in the opposite direction of the cramp and massaging it to make the pain go.
You can also try sleeping with feet elevated to a height of 20 to 25 cm of the mattress so that your legs and your feet are in perfect extension.
If the pain is too intense, you can get up and put your feet flat on a cold floor. It helps!

Muscle pain

Try to maintain good posture throughout the day and rest frequently. You can use the triethanolamine salicylate (Myoflex) to soothe aching muscles.

Shortness of breath

Shortness of breath are common during pregnancy, especially at the end.

The fetus is becoming more and more space by compressing the blood vessels, stomach, bladder.
Oxygen consumption increased from 10 to 15% from before pregnancy.

Gradually, as the baby grows, the mother has more and more difficult to take deep breaths.

Solutions

When you're out of breath, you can lie on your back, legs folded in inspiring the arms above the head. To recover, it is advisable to move slowly and in stages from lying to standing. Avoid unnecessarily tiring, slow our pace, make sports less tiring and perhaps for the first time in our lives, listen to our breathing body for two!

Dizziness

Reflexes of the brain are a bit slow during pregnancy, the heartbeat accelerates, the amount of blood increases, causing dizziness, but these can be signs of a lack of blood sugar or hypoglycemia. A check should be made to the sixth month by a blood test.

Dizziness can also be followed by unconsciousness and caused by compression of the inferior vena cava by the baby. Even if they are scary, these ailments have no effect, but their frequency depends on the decision to talk to a doctor or not.

It is suggested, when dizziness is present, to extend, to lengthen the legs and raise them, take deep breaths and above all not to panic. With a little air, it's even better!

Hemorrhoids

They are common in pregnant women. Generally, mothers who suffer the inconvenience already knew before pregnancy. Hemorrhoids are caused by circulatory problems: a vein in the rectum or anus expands and may even bleed. They are often the result of constipation. We must therefore try to avoid it by following the tips mentioned earlier.

How to relieve them?

It is suggested to sleep on the left side to improve circulation, to avoid remaining in one position long periods during the day, taking regular sitz baths in lukewarm water and especially to point to any doctor bleeding. Finally, pharmaceuticals and as Anusol Tucks are allowed.

Insomnia

Unfortunately, it seems to be no pharmacological action (other than prescription) to overcome insomnia. No sedative or sleep aid is permitted. This may be difficulty sleeping due to anxiety, some reactions of the organism against pregnancy, psychological disturbances of the digestive system or an increased heart rate and lung.

Some solutions

If you can not give tips for miracles promote sleep, it can nevertheless provide some guidance.

Thus, it is suggested not to eat fat in the evening.
We suggest rather foods such as lettuce, milk, apples and garlic that have sedative properties.
Herbal teas can also be a calming solution, but they sometimes require the mother to get up several times a night to go to the bathroom.
A cup of hot milk with honey can also help induce sleep.
Above all, do fears of hurting the baby, whatever your sleeping position. It is well protected by the amniotic fluid.

Do not feel guilty!

That said, do not increase your insomnia on the anguishing potential impact of sleep deprivation on your child. It will take all the energy it needs. It is you who will not have an ounce of vitality, long before he suffers.

In summary, there is no miracle and the days following the sleepless nights can seem very long and painful, but panic only exacerbates things. See the hours pass with anxiety is not much better. Often, a good book and feeling that no one can die of fatigue is a good way to play down and turns out to be the best philosophy to adopt before going to bed.

Migraines

It should be noted that the increased blood flow in the body, consequent to increased estrogen, can promote the onset of severe headaches and migraines.

If they are accompanied by vomiting or fever or if these headaches are intolerable, we must talk to the doctor. Pharmacy, only acetaminophen (Tylenol, Atasol) is recommended for relief.

Nausea

Nausea was the most common discomfort of pregnancy, especially early. 50% of women suffer. Today there are drugs like Diclectin (combining doxylamine and vitamin B6), which is, apparently it be safe for the fetus. Many doctors prescribe it. However, it is better to try above all to control his nausea by natural means.

Some tricks against nausea

Nausea is due to increased estrogen and appear mostly in the morning on waking, when you're tired or we have more hungry.

It is suggested to snack often (healthy food, of course, leaves to eat less at meals), to avoid strong odors, rich foods, fatty or spicy foods and favor instead the foods high in carbohydrates, such as potatoes, bananas, rice, bread, corn.
It is proposed also to eat unprocessed foods in their natural state, such as raw fruits and vegetables, whole grains or whole wheat bread. Moreover, often these foods are eaten with gusto, while others feel sick just thinking about it.
Some people recommend eating soda crackers 15 minutes before getting out of bed, the combination of bread and salt lessening nausea.
It is also recommended to drink his coffee or tea without milk, to avoid eating hot, and drink plenty of water, but as little as possible during meals.
Boiling water is allowed to stand in which a piece of fresh ginger, peeled could pass the nausea.
Also, there is now on the market pacifiers natural flavors designed for pregnant women: Preffie Pop lollipops. Their tartness and fruity lessen nausea.
Also referred to as bracelets antinausées that, by pressing a specific point on the wrist, would relieve sore heart. They play on specific points and acupuncture are available in pharmacies.

Water retention

Many women are bothered, especially in late pregnancy. These are, in general, legs, feet and hands are affected, but some women feel as they face swell. Caused by a greater amount of water than usual in the body, such detention may be paradoxically reduced by drinking plenty of water. If swelling appears suddenly and forcefully, it may be a sign of kidney malfunction. Better to contact your doctor. The lucky ones who can walk on a beach and waterfront could see these problems diminish, the cool water and contact with the latter favoring the circulation and tissue drainage.

Varicose veins

Although the pregnancy hormones such as estrogen and progesterone, are partly responsible for varicose veins, a hereditary predisposition is often the trigger.

To avoid them, we suggest maintaining the usual sports, avoid hot baths (beyond 37 degrees, or body temperature), sun exposure and even waxing which could encourage them to come.The doctor may prescribe a specific treatment, but mostly, it will only do so if varicose veins are painful. To prevent them: avoid standing too long and wear clothes that squeeze your legs, raise them before going to sleep and even during the night, avoid rigorous and vigorous massage.Some women will also wear special tights sold with or without a prescription, which provide appropriate support.

Stretch marks

Stretch marks are appearing about the fifth month for 75% of mothers when the skin of the belly, breasts and thighs even extends too quickly, but opinions regarding prevention diverge.

Some recommend massaging firmly these sensitive areas with vitamin E after showering or bathing, others with sweet almond oil or special creams, sold in the market. The massage will help stimulate circulation. However, many people, including women who have taken every precaution to prevent stretch marks, say it does not change anything, that's all about skin. Finally, all agree on one thing: when stretch marks are present, there is no way to make them disappear.
