Expecting a baby is one of the most wonderful time in a persons life. Even you can call it as a miracle of life. One of my friend who is in her third trimester downplayed my excitement about her.
To look at her I sort of had to agree. What had happened to that “glow” pregnant women are supposed to have? It had been replaced by a puffy nose and dark circles under her eyes.
She explained that as soon as she hit her third trimester, she started having chronic neck pain. This was not just a problem during daylight hours. She also found that she had trouble sleeping, which actually seemed to make the neck pain worse.
Most of the pregnant women always report about neck pain. The combination of neck pain and back pain is complained by 80% of the pregnant women.
Back pain and neck pain during pregnancy do have some reasons. First thing is during pregnancy there will be sudden increase of weight and typically the weight will be more in uterus. So it alters the woman’s balance in the body. And the body tries to adjust in size and weight almost on a daily basis.
The weight gain can cause both the neck and back pain. This does not bring relief even though the pregnant women gains weight all over the body. Mostly, neck and back pain is very much reported in both men and women who are obese.
During pregnancy the hormones can affect the joints and ligaments and this can also cause pain.
While a great concept in relaxing the pelvis to allow for childbirth. Due to this “relaxing” effect, the joints and ligaments in the back and especially neck are compromised as far as support is concerned.
Best solutions are the pillows specially designed for cervical that can heal neck and back pain. Alternatively one can apply ice pack on the affected area and can try some neck exercises.
A client of mine who has two children told me that she experienced severe neck pain during her pregnancy.
Only after the delivery of the baby and complete recovery she noticed the improvement in the neck pain. For her the pillows and ice packs provided little comfort during her pregnancy.
Her physician asked her to try some neck exercises early, that means start the exercise before the pain starts. I was very happy to know that my neck exercises have been a great help to her.
The programs is very natural and comes with proven results and with zero side effects. My neck exercises are highly recommended regardless the cause of the pain.
