Can stress cause stomach pain?

Question

Hello, I am a few weeks pregnant (positive test on August 19, 2021) a lot of nausea, heartache, tired. And I have a pain at the top of the navel as the stomach! When I eat, I relax and when I bend over (I have two children at home and my last delivery was on April 14, 2021) so two very fast pregnancies! Hello, and thank you! No I don't have any treatment because I haven't seen my doctor yet, for this pregnancy! Today it was better for the pain, but it is when I eat, drink & when I bend over! No normal symptoms of pregnancy, heartache, nausea, headache, tired!

Hi, thanks for your question, and congratulations! :) Before we get a better idea of your needs, a few things are missing: do you have a treatment for nauaea? Is the pain constant, or according to certain movements? Are there any other symptoms? Thanks in advance Thank you for the clarification! I strongly encourage you to consult your pharmacist as he/she can indeed prescribe the same treatments as the doctor to help alleviate the nausea! As for the discomfort/pain, if the situation persists beyond 2 weeks, I advise you to consult a doctor to evaluate your condition. In the meantime, taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) is both effective in reducing pain, and safe during pregnancy. I hope this helps, and I am available if you have any further questions!
