Pregnancy is an incredibly wonderful time, marked by a large number of various changes in the female body. To explain this is quite simple - after all, the emergence of a completely new life. It is important to take any change in this situation for granted, since it was programmed by nature itself, but you need to monitor your health as closely as possible to prevent any complications. During pregnancy, there are very specific norms that you should follow. No attention should be paid to the pulse of the most pregnant and future baby. It is important to remember that the body of the expectant mother during pregnancy provides the baby's body with oxygen, and also supplies all the important substances. Pulsation in the abdomen can also accompany pregnancy itself.
An ordinary human heart beats at a frequency of 60-80 beats per minute. Actually, with such a pulse rate, the heart expels blood in the arteries and veins. With each push of blood, the walls of the vessels expand, so they fluctuate. Pulsation in the abdomen may be associated with this. Since the conception of a child, the female body doubles its strength to ensure the full development of the future baby. The mother’s heart works for two, which allows the fetus to receive free blood flow. By the second trimester of pregnancy , the stroke volume of the heart increases significantly. This happens by the time when the growing child has already realized the laying of almost the entire set of important organs for the body. At this time, the most important thing for him is the timely intake of oxygen and all useful substances. In this case, there is an increase in blood volume circulating throughout the body, it turns out that the heart should function intensely, distilling the growing volumes of blood. Pulsation in the abdomen at this time intensifies.
Many pregnant women feel how their heart function has become noticeably more intense, and the pulse is already 100 beats per minute. In the third trimester, the peak sets in; it is precisely at this time that for many, the pulse reaches 110-115 beats every minute. This condition is usually called physiological tachycardia. Do not worry because of this, since such a condition can be dangerous exclusively for a healthy person in a normal state. After the baby is born, this type of tachycardia usually disappears, so it is not dangerous for pregnant women. Of course, they may have a pulsation in the lower abdomen or a little unpleasant sensations, but this is normal. The help of a specialist may be required only if tachycardia is complicated by nausea or vomiting, because this may turn out to be a symptom of a heart disease.
Pulsation in the abdomen during pregnancy is a fairly common occurrence. She is weak or strong. Doctors have given an explanation for this phenomenon: blood moves along the aorta. It happens that the pulsation in the stomach is due to the fact that the baby hiccups. It is a rhythmic movement, and there is no attachment to a certain period of pregnancy, it can occur at any time. Hiccups of a child are contacted by doctors with the moment when he swallows amniotic fluid in significant quantities. This respiratory movement of the child is considered normal and does not cause anxiety. The name "hiccups" is very arbitrary, since here we are talking about the functional state of the development of the baby's body inside the mother's body.
Most often, this sensation appears in the lower abdomen. If the sensation of pulsation is not accompanied by pain, then you can take your time to consult a doctor, it is quite possible that these are natural processes. If unpleasant pain occurs during pulsation, then it makes sense to contact specialists for an ultrasound examination.
