Symptoms of pelvic flooring at 37 weeks of pregnancy

The growth cycle of the fetus is expressed differently at different times, and the impact on the pregnant mother also has a certain impact. We should improve our understanding of the symptoms before delivery, so as to effectively relieve the physical and mental pressure of delivery on us. So what is the sign of the fetus entering the pelvis at 37 weeks of pregnancy?

Pregnancy 37 weeks fetal head into the pelvis signs

After the fetal head enters the pelvis at 37 weeks of pregnancy, you will generally feel frequent and urgent urination, and your appetite will also increase. This is all normal. It does not mean that you will give birth once the fetus enters the pelvis. Generally, for some first-time pregnant women, the fetus may enter the pelvis a month before giving birth.

At 37 weeks of pregnancy, the pregnant woman has gained about 10.5kg, and the fetal abdominal circumference is approximately between 89-100cm. Now you feel very heavy, and your movements are becoming increasingly difficult. Starting from this week, the pregnant woman's weight will continue to increase at a rate of about 0.45kg per week. At this time, the position of the fetus in the pregnant woman's belly will continue to drop, and the fundus of the uterus will drop back to the level of the end of August, but the fundus of the uterus is much wider than that time. Pregnant women may feel a pain in the lower abdomen and find that the shape of their abdomen has changed, as if it has changed from a melon to a grapefruit.

Starting from the 37th week, pregnancy tests will be required every week for the next four weeks. Basic examination items include blood pressure, weight, uterine fundus height, fetal abdominal circumference, fetal heart rate, fetal position, routine blood test, routine urine test, fetal monitoring, and fetal position check. This routine physical examination item can help doctors fully understand the basic conditions of pregnant women and fetuses.

At 37 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus is already full-term and the cervical maturity will be checked this week. Cervical ripening test can determine whether labor has occurred and predict the time of labor. The closer the due date is, the more likely it is that you will be able to give birth naturally once your cervix is ​​fully perfected. Before full term, an overly mature cervix can cause miscarriage or premature birth; an immature cervix at full term can cause prolonged pregnancy and delayed delivery. For pregnant women who plan to have a caesarean section, checking the cervix at 37 weeks of pregnancy and accurately measuring the length of the cervix can determine the timing of surgery.
