Patient's question:
I was wearing tight underwear when I was 12 weeks pregnant. All day today, I've felt my lower abdomen being constricted, a bit tight and sour, and it's uncomfortable. What impact will this have on the fetus? If I stop wearing tight underwear now, will my baby develop normally?Doctor's answer:
In the situation you mentioned, if you do not feel any tightness or discomfort in your abdomen, it should not affect the fetus. However, during pregnancy, it is important to wear loose clothing to avoid tightness around the abdomen, as this may impact local blood circulation. Primarily, you may experience noticeable discomfort. In more severe cases, it could potentially affect fetal development. Rest well during pregnancy, maintain a positive mood, enhance your nutrition, and ensure regular prenatal check-ups. Wishing you good health.
