Signs before real contractions

For pregnant women, it is important to carefully distinguish between true uterine contractions and false uterine contractions. Because true uterine contractions are an important physical manifestation before labor, and false uterine contractions that are too frequent may also cause miscarriage. In fact, there is a big difference between true uterine contractions and false uterine contractions. For pregnant women in the late stages of pregnancy, it is necessary to understand the signs before true uterine contractions come.

True uterine contraction symptoms

At the beginning, expectant mothers will have symptoms of abdominal pain, and some expectant mothers will have pain in the waist. The degree of pain is different for each person. Generally speaking, when the contraction is not strong, the pain is just like normal menstruation, but as time goes by, the pain will gradually intensify and last longer, and the intervals will become shorter.

In fact, uterine contractions are inseparable from pain, so how can we relieve the pain? Here are some tips for you!

1. Take a deep breath. When contractions begin, expectant mothers can continue to take deep and slow breaths, relax their abdomen, and control the rhythm to reduce pain.

2. During the contraction period, pay more attention to keeping your abdomen warm. It is best to cover it with a small blanket. The cold feeling can easily cause contractions and lead to pain.

3. Another major cause of uterine contractions during this period is fatigue. If you are always walking or lifting heavy objects, the pain will be aggravated, so please try to stay in bed and rest to conserve your energy.
