Pregnancy is often seen as a moment when a woman is more concerned with what clothes and fashion styles are suitable and comfortable for them. Not infrequently pregnant women who still dare to wear high heels or high heels. women who are pregnant are fine to wear high heels without harming their babies, as long as they don't fall.
It's just that too often wearing high heels during pregnancy can trigger a number of problems and discomfort that can be experienced. Here are the side effects:
- Calf cramps
When pregnant women wear high heels for too long, the muscles in the calves will contract. This is what causes cramps in the calf muscles to worsen during pregnancy.
- Back pain
High heels generally function to change body posture to become straighter. The pelvic muscles will bend forward and give a rounder shape to the back. Women who are pregnant will usually have a heavier weight on the front, so posture changes that are triggered by wearing high heels will cause pain. The ligaments in the lower back and legs also become loose during pregnancy. Wearing high heels will only put more pressure on the hip joint and back. This condition causes pain around the joints and ligaments of the lower back.
- The body is less balanced
The strength in the ankles tends to decrease as a result of being overweight and the hormonal changes in the body. Pregnant women who wear heels tend to lose their balance and will be easier to fall. This not only results in injury to the future mother, but also to the fetus.
- Swollen feet
A medical condition called edema is a condition that is swollen in the foot or ankle, which is quite common during pregnancy. Using high heels will only add to the problem. Wearing high heels, especially at the end of pregnancy, can cause your feet to swell even more. Fluid that accumulates more and more in the lower part of the body is also a factor in the swelling of the feet.
- Miscarriage
Using high heels will always pose more risks to pregnant women, one of the most dangerous is miscarriage. This diminishing balance can make expectant mothers fall easily and this will result in miscarriage.
