Tire pain
-
Due to the growth of the uterus, a painful feeling can arise in the groin, lower abdomen and back. This is caused by the stretching of the bands on which the uterus is suspended in the abdominal cavity. A nagging feeling is not uncommon between the twelfth and twentieth week. After the twentieth week, the bands that run through the inguinal canal can start to play up. Sudden movements then produce spontaneous stitches

Pregnancy itch
-
The hormones cause a slight congestion in the liver
Pregnancy Mask
-
Your skin can cause problems due to the many changes and extra production of hormones. The skin can become drier or oilier, but pigmentation spots can also develop and this is called the pregnancy mask. They form on the face and are like large, light brown moles. The spots worsen when you sunbathe as the pigment concentrates only in a few places. Numerous other discolorations are possible, including a pregnancy line
Varicose veins
-
Pregnancy has an important influence on the development of varicose veins and it affects half of the women. The cause is increased pressure in the veins, an increased amount of blood and slackening walls in the blood vessels. The consequences are a tense and heavy feeling in the legs, fluid retention in the lower legs, tingling and nocturnal cramps in the calves, itching and pain. In addition, there is the beauty aspect, although varicose veins can also lie so deep that you cannot see them. Varicose veins can lead to complications
Not in the mood for sex
-
The need for sexual contact is almost absent during pregnancy. The decrease in sexual desire occurs immediately. The causes are many and are related to the pregnancy symptoms but also to the idea that intercourse could be harmful to the pregnancy or with a feeling of being less attractive. Besides these additional factors, the main cause is a very altered hormone balance
Pressure on the bladder
-
Due to the increasing weight of the abdomen, the bladder is also compromised. There seems to be less urine to pass in, so it is not uncommon, especially at the end of pregnancy, to urinate more often or get out of bed at night because your bladder is full. This can also occur in the beginning of pregnancy, but if the bladder gets some space again due to a sliding uterus, this will diminish after a few months. However, at the end of the pregnancy, the baby's head presses on the bladder and you can feel it. Spontaneously lose small amounts of urine
Hard bellies
-
Sometimes the uterus contracts briefly and then relaxes again. These so-called 'hard bellies' are also called practice contractions

Nesting urge
-
It is sometimes a bit joking about it, but many women notice shortly before the due date that they still have to do everything at home. The house will be given a major overhaul, kitchen cupboards will be cleaned and curtains will even be changed. It is unclear exactly where this vague urge to nestle comes from, but it is consistent with what some women occasionally experience in the week before menstruation: Sudden urge to work
Sometimes things go wrong
-
Miscarriage
