Changes That Happen In The Body During Pregnancy

Digestion

Hormones cause all kinds of food cravings, food aversions and nausea during pregnancy. The digestive system also undergoes some major changes. Constipation can occur from the added weight of a growing uterus, and heartburn is common in the third trimester as a growing baby pushes on the stomach. Tinier, frequent meals can help to reduce this, as well as antacids.
