I always want to go to the toilet when my due date comes.

When the due date is approaching, pregnant women often experience many symptoms. For example, uterine contractions are a common symptom. Some pregnant women have a feeling of always wanting to go to the toilet, and they don’t know why. Some pregnant women worry that this is an abnormality and that the health of the fetus will be affected. Is it normal to always want to go to the toilet when the due date is approaching?

It is normal to have a feeling of always wanting to go to the toilet when approaching the delivery period, because the baby has already entered the pelvis, which will further compress the bladder, so pregnant friends always want to urinate. When this happens, the time for the pregnant woman to give birth is very close, and pregnant friends should make preparations to welcome the baby.

The time when the fetal head enters the pelvis is generally two weeks before the delivery date. After the fetal head enters the pelvis, the baby's head will lower, the breathing of pregnant women will become smoother, the appetite will increase, and everyone will feel much more relaxed. After the fetal head enters the pelvis, the pressure on the stomach will be relieved a lot, making pregnant women feel more comfortable.

When the delivery date is approaching, pregnant friends do not need to be too anxious. They should prepare everything that needs to be prepared, such as daily necessities needed by the pregnant woman and the fetus, as well as some valid documents, etc. All must be put in the delivery bag for pregnant women. In addition, it is necessary to maintain a stable mentality and prevent large fluctuations in mentality, so as not to affect the delivery of pregnant women. If a pregnant woman's amniotic fluid breaks, she should seek medical attention immediately.

Frequently asked questions about delivery period

1. Maintaining a happy mood is important

It is understandable that mothers look forward to the arrival of the baby, but pregnant women should remember not to be too anxious to avoid an uneasy mood after delivery. A bad mood will affect delivery. It should be understood that the two weeks before and after the delivery date are the normal delivery time period for pregnant women. It is very important for pregnant mothers to maintain a happy mood during the delivery period, which can play a positive and effective role in the successful delivery.

2. Improve pre-pregnancy care

The delivery of the fetus mainly depends on the function of uterine contraction and abdominal pressure, which "forces" the fetus out of the uterus, which consumes a lot of energy. Therefore, during the delivery period, you must pay attention to nutrition, eat small and frequent meals, and pay attention to replenishing enough water to make the body full of energy and vigorous, so as to complete the arduous task of delivery. In addition to nutrition, if you do not pay attention to empty the urine on time, the urine in the bladder will cause urination difficulties and cause urinary retention. Therefore, pregnant women should urinate every 2-3 hours during labor. Defecation should be cleared anytime and anywhere.

3. Get enough rest

Adequate vitality is the key criterion to ensure a successful delivery for pregnant women. If the mind or body is in a state of fatigue during labor, it will eventually affect the successful delivery. Therefore, pregnant women must have a regular daily life ten days before delivery, eat well, rest well, conserve energy, and wait for delivery.
