Swelling in pregnant women is quite common. And if in the first two trimesters of pregnancy many expectant mothers manage to avoid this condition, then the diagnosis of "gestosis" at 7 and the next month is made to many. It is possible to alleviate this condition if you follow some rules.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, eat foods that do not cause increased thirst. That is why during pregnancy it is recommended to refrain from spicy, canned and salty foods. Especially when it comes to a hearty and hearty dinner. A similar situation almost one hundred percent guarantees a morning rise with swollen legs, arms and eyelids above the eyes.
Step 2
Preventing edema is easier than treating it. Therefore, it is much easier to control the amount of fluid consumed and released (otherwise this process is called diuresis), rather than taking a daily course of drug treatment. In the event that the desire to drink prevails over all others and does not fit into the time frame, you can try rinsing your mouth with water in the evening or taking a small sip of green tea at intervals of 15-20 minutes.
Step 3
Normalizing the nutritional system often helps prevent unnecessary swelling. To do this, you must eat a sufficient amount of calcium-containing foods daily. Taking the appropriate vitamins will also help, but they also need to be coordinated with the gynecologist leading the pregnancy.
Step 4
Try herbal teas to help your kidneys cope with the increased stress. Dried lingonberry leaf works especially well. But before using this remedy, it is advisable to consult a doctor.
