Because of what pulses the lower abdomen during pregnancy?

This phenomenon is accompanied by rhythmic twitching of the abdomen of the future mother. This can happen already from 28 weeks, when the baby begins to carry out active swallowing movements. Thus, during the ingestion process, the muscles of the digestive system and the gastrointestinal tract are strengthened in particular.
However, the most dangerous reason that pulses the abdomen during pregnancy in later terms is the squeezing or infringement of the vena cava. Anatomically, it passes right along the spine. Depending on the position of the mother's body, the vessel is squeezed. It is noteworthy that after a change in body position, ripple disappears. This phenomenon can be observed starting from about the 25th week of pregnancy.
The third probable cause of the fact that during pregnancy there are pulsating tremors in the abdomen is the banal stirring of the baby. That's how future moms describe the first time the stirring of a baby. This fact directly explains that a woman's belly pulsates during pregnancy.
