Causes of uterine contractions during mid-pregnancy

Women raise their children from pregnancy to delivery, and adults actually need to go through a very wonderful process. During this process, it is very difficult for themselves, especially after the second trimester of pregnancy. The body's immunity becomes low, and because the uterus becomes larger, it squeezes the bladder and the amount of urine gradually begins to increase. Especially for female friends, what is the reason for the uterine contractions in the second trimester of pregnancy?

Uterine contraction is the abbreviation for uterine muscle contraction. In fact, once a woman becomes pregnant, her uterus will naturally experience sporadic and irregular contractions, but the intensity of these uterine contractions is not strong and pregnant mothers usually cannot feel them.

Felt contractions usually occur in the middle and late stages of pregnancy; contractions become more frequent, usually after 7 or 8 months of pregnancy. "If the frequency of contractions is irregular and occurs only once in a long time, and can be improved by rest, then pregnant mothers do not need to worry too much! The most important thing is to comply with regular prenatal check-ups."

1. Weeks of pregnancy

* Frequent uterine contractions after 37 weeks of pregnancy indicate that birth is imminent!

Pregnant women can first assess themselves whether this uncomfortable condition can resolve on its own? If that doesn't work, then you should first evaluate the frequency of uterine contractions yourself. If a pregnant mother with her first child experiences contractions more than three times within ten minutes, or if a pregnant mother with her second or subsequent child experiences contractions once within ten minutes, she should go to the hospital to assess whether she needs to be hospitalized for delivery. Because the fetus is full-term at this time, not premature. In addition, if water breaks, vaginal bleeding is heavy, or fetal movement is significantly reduced after 37 weeks of pregnancy, you need to go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible.

*If frequent uterine contractions occur between 20 and 37 weeks of pregnancy, you should pay more attention and prevent premature birth!

This type of pregnant women must fully understand what constitutes abnormal uterine contractions and what are false uterine contractions? What are premature contractions? If the frequency is very regular and is becoming more and more frequent, it is best to see a doctor as soon as possible, as you may need to preserve the fetus.

In the above article, we learned about uterine contractions in mid-pregnancy. First of all, this phenomenon is mainly considered to be the occurrence of premature birth. In life, we must ensure that our bodies are in a safe state and conduct regular pregnancy check-ups.
