At 11 weeks of pregnancy, esophageal narrowing mainly occurs due to the enlarged uterus compressing the stomach and intestines. It is recommended to eat small meals frequently, consume easily digestible foods, avoid overly greasy foods, and refrain from overeating or extreme dieting. Do not eat too much before bedtime. After meals, avoid lying down or sleeping immediately; instead, take regular walks or practice prenatal yoga, which can aid digestion and benefit fetal health.
