Pregnancy is a wonderful time in a woman’s life but there is no denying the fact that this can be an uncomfortable period in her life. The entire process of conceiving a child and carrying it to term is a wonderful one but it is also fraught with complications. Many of the problems that a woman faces are routine and amount to nothing more than an inconvenience. However, some of them can have very serious consequences, both for her and for her unborn child. Some of the most common problems that a woman faces during pregnancy are backache and constipation. Backache appears only in the third trimester but constipation is almost her constant companion. It only becomes a big problem if the feces are hard to pass and causes piles. Most women are advised to avoid getting this painful condition by drinking lots of fluids and eating foods containing a lot of fiber because that helps to bulk up the feces, making motions more regular. In extreme cases she might be prescribed natural laxatives such as psyllium husk. Many women also develop anemia in the third trimester of their pregnancy. The reason for this anemia is that the fetus is accumulating iron in its liver in order to prepare for the first six months of its life outside the womb when it will live on a diet exclusively of milk. The mother needs to increase her consumption of iron rich foods but this is sometimes insufficient and she will need iron supplements as well. There are many problems that are of a more severe nature because they are potentially life threatening. Pregnant women who are overweight are at great risk of developing hypertension. This problem can also affect expectant mothers who are above the age of 35. Hypertension can quickly develop into a state called preeclampsia or even eclampsia. Women who suffer from this condition develop edema and even seizures and they require immediate hospitalization. Women who are in the high risk group for hypertension should take all necessary preventive measures to ensure that their blood pressure is within manageable limits. This is done with the aid of medication as well as exercise and diet management. Another potentially life threatening condition is deep vein thrombosis when a blood clot is released into the blood stream and it causes maternal death. It can be avoided with the right kind of medication. A pregnant woman’s life is at great risk if she has an ectopic pregnancy during which the fetus grows in the fallopian tube rather than in the uterus. This pregnancy should be aborted because it will otherwise cause the fallopian tube to burst which could lead to the mother’s death. Many women suffer from placental abruption when the placenta gets separated from the fetus. This is an undesirable condition because it can result in premature birth. A woman has to watch out for these conditions during her pregnancy so that she can take the best remedial measures. This will ensure that her baby is born healthy and to full term.
