Singer and actress Son Dam-bi revealed that she had health problems after getting pregnant through in vitro fertilization.

On the 13th, a video titled ‘Wise Pregnancy Life (feat. Appearance of Our Neighborhood Specialist)’ was uploaded to YouTube channel ‘Dambison’.

On this day, Son Dam-bi introduced obstetricians and gynecologists, saying, “We invited special people to solve the curiosities of expectant mothers.”Son Dam-bi confided in obstetricians and gynecologists about her concerns about health problems after getting pregnant. Son Dam-bi said, “I‘m only 15 weeks pregnant, but I originally had rhinitis, and I’ve been living with it ever since. It was hard because I couldn‘t breathe when I slept. I couldn’t take medicine. I asked, “Do I have to take it because of the hormones?”

The specialist replied, “Because pregnancy lowers your immunity, your basic allergies get worse and last longer. Even if you catch a cold, it doesn‘t get better quickly and lasts a long time. Rhinitis medicine is safe during pregnancy.”

Son Dam-bi confessed, “When one nostril gets blocked, I lie down on the other side to clear it, and when it gets blocked again, I lie down on the other side again. I’ve been doing that these days, so I‘ve developed insomnia. I keep waking up at dawn.”

The specialist consoled her, saying, “When you’re full-term, you‘re so full that you can’t sleep. You get gastroesophageal reflux disease, so you sleep sitting up. If your nose gets blocked on top of that, your quality of life will drop dramatically.”

She continued, “I recommend that you go to a nearby hospital at the same time. He advised, “It’s not ‘all medicines are bad’, but ‘taking the ones you can’t take’ is important.”
