What does it mean when there is sticky liquid down there in late pregnancy?

The presence of sticky liquid below in the late pregnancy may be a situation that all pregnant women have experienced. This situation will make pregnant women very worried. Not only will they feel uncomfortable, but they are also afraid that something might happen to their fetus. In fact, the reason for the sticky liquid below in the late pregnancy is definitely because the amniotic fluid has broken, or it may be due to hormonal imbalance in the body that leads to increased secretions. In any case, it should be treated in time. The following is a detailed introduction to what is going on with the sticky liquid below in the late pregnancy.

This is usually caused by rupture of the amniotic fluid.

1. Immediately let the pregnant woman lie down in bed, raise her hips, so that the amniotic fluid will not continue to flow out or flow out less. If the pregnant woman is outdoors, she should also lie down in bed and rest immediately.

2. It is best to ask a doctor to come and treat the patient. If this is not possible, the patient can be carried to the hospital for treatment on a stretcher or long wooden board. During transportation, the pregnant woman should be kept in a low chest and high hip position, and should not be escorted in a sitting position.

3. If the umbilical cord falls out of the vagina, cover it with sterile gauze or a clean handkerchief and rush to the hospital. Never insert the umbilical cord back into the vagina with unsterilized hands. Also, do not use anything that is not strictly sterilized to try to block the outflow of amniotic fluid in the vagina.

In the late stages of pregnancy, pregnant women will experience increased secretions from their private parts. This is a normal phenomenon during pregnancy and does not require special treatment. During pregnancy, under the influence of progesterone in the body, the blood circulation in the pregnant mother's vulva, vagina, cervix and other parts speeds up, making the tissues more hydrated and the amount of leucorrhea increases than usual. In order to ensure the stable growth of the placenta, female hormones will increase significantly, which is also the main factor for increased secretions.

If in addition to increased secretions, there is also an odor, and is accompanied by vaginal discomfort, pain or itching, you may be suffering from vaginitis. At this time, pregnant mothers can take some measures to relieve symptoms without affecting the health of the baby.

1. Avoid fatigue in late pregnancy

Once the immune system decreases, the number of Candida albicans will increase, leading to infection. Candida infection will cause obvious itching, redness and swelling of the private parts, and the disease is prone to recurrence. Therefore, pregnant mothers should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and pay attention to rest while exercising appropriately.

2. Pants should be loose

In addition to drug treatment, you should wear loose and breathable pants to keep your genitals dry and avoid the increase of Candida albicans.

3. Daily cleaning of anus

Bacterial infections are usually anaerobic bacteria. The infection will make the secretions grayish yellow and not necessarily itchy, but the genitals will become red and swollen. Bacteria may also enter the uterine cavity, causing inflammation of the amniotic cavity, infecting the fetus and inducing premature birth. Therefore, pregnant mothers should pay attention to the cleanliness of the anus. The anus and private parts are close to each other, and the bacteria at the anus can easily be brought to the private parts.

4. If you have brown bloodshot eyes, you should go to the doctor

In the early stages of pregnancy, the private area discharge that is brown and bloody is implantation bleeding and there is no need to worry too much. However, brown discharge is common in late pregnancy and you must seek medical attention immediately as it could be due to cervical dilation and should not be taken lightly.

5. Clear scores for amniotic fluid and secretions

In the late stages of pregnancy, as pregnant women are approaching delivery, there will be high-positioned amniotic fluid that flows out in the form of dots, which is very similar to secretions. You can use a test strip to test. Amniotic fluid is alkaline and secretions are acidic. If it is alkaline, you must go to the hospital immediately for medical treatment.
