Question

At 8 months pregnant, I suddenly feel my mouth is dry and uncomfortable when breathing. I am worried about the effect on the fetus. What are the possible causes and solutions?

Answer

Dry mouth and breathing discomfort in the late stages of pregnancy may be caused by dry weather or changes in hormones within the body. It is suggested that you drink plenty of water, keep the indoor air moist, and get adequate rest. If the symptoms do not improve, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for further examination to ensure the health of the fetus.
