Learn About 26 Weeks Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a beautiful phase. With each passing week, you get to experience a new environment and new changes happening inside you. As you enter the wonderful 26 weeks of pregnancy, here is what you need to know about the changes that are occurring with you. 

Read the below mentioned symptoms to understand what to expect during this week:

Bloating & Gas: As your uterus expands, it puts more and more pressure on your stomach and intestines, which ultimately leads to bloating. You can ease this problem by taking small meals, several times a day, rather than having three large meals that will burden your digestive system.




Headaches and/or Migraines: There are some women who might get headaches or migraines when they are pregnant. If you are one of them and want to get rid of the pain, then you can consider therapies and treatments like naturopathy, acupuncture, massage, meditation and yoga, which can be beneficial for you, and would not affect your or your child’s health during pregnancy.

Dry Eyes : Due to the production of pregnancy hormones, your eyes’ tear production might get reduced, which might lead to dry and irritated eyes. In order to treat the blurred vision, you can use some eye drops, recommended by your medical practitioner and keep the discomfort at bay.

Lower Back Pain :If your lower back gets hurt during the 26 weeks pregnancy, it might even be difficult for you to walk, stand, or sit for prolonged time duration. Taking a hot water bath might ease the problem to a great extent. But, make sure that the water is not too hot, to avoid any hazards..
