After pregnancy, the body will secrete a large amount of progesterone, causing the gastrointestinal tract muscle tone to weaken and intestinal peristalsis to slow down, so constipation is one of the most common symptoms during pregnancy. For pregnant women with mild constipation symptoms, food therapy can be used to eat more crude fiber-rich fruits, green leafy root vegetables and cereals and potatoes, such as kiwi, bananas, pears, grapes, as well as spinach, kelp, cucumber, celery, carrots, horseshoes, cabbage, sweet potatoes, corn, etc., can promote intestinal muscle peristalsis, softening stool, thus playing the role of laxative stool, helping pregnant women defecate. In addition, drinking honey water properly every morning also has a laxative effect. At the same time, pregnant women should avoid excessive consumption of high-protein, high-fat food, which will make the gastrointestinal tract does not contain enough fiber, which is not conducive to the decline of food and stool. In summary, pregnant women with constipation first pay attention to dietary adjustments, try to increase the intake of dietary fiber, eat more fruits and vegetables. However, you should not eat too much, so as not to increase the digestive burden of the stomach and intestines, which is counterproductive. In addition, do not always sit or lie down after pregnancy, pay attention to appropriate activities, not only can relieve the symptoms of constipation, but also conducive to the smooth progress of childbirth.
