Pregnant women will experience symptoms of spotting when they are about to give birth. The color of the blood is relatively dark, a little dark red, and it will be accompanied by abdominal pain. Therefore, if pregnant women experience spotting, they should go to the hospital immediately to prepare for delivery. Prenatal spotting will cause the uterus to continuously contract, the cervix to dilate, and then the amount of bleeding will increase. The duration of labor pains is determined by your physical condition, but childbirth is a painful experience. What is prenatal bleeding? In the late stages of pregnancy, spotting is often seen as a major sign of impending labor. As the uterine contractions intensify, the cervix begins to dilate, causing the fetal membrane close to the cervix to gradually separate from the uterine wall, causing capillaries to rupture, and blood to mix with mucus in the cervical canal and then be discharged from the body through the vagina. The bloody mucus at this time is called prenatal spotting. What are the characteristics of prenatal bleeding? 1. The color is like the end of menstruation, often brown, pink, red, etc. 2. Compared with menstrual period, the amount of bleeding is less. 3. Generally, it occurs 24 hours before labor pains. 4. The blood is mixed with mucus and becomes viscous, with less blood volume. Is prenatal bleeding a sign of threatened miscarriage? People in the public regard "seeing blood" as a sign of threatened miscarriage, and this scenario often appears in film and television dramas. But in fact, threatened abortion in medicine refers to a small amount of bleeding in the expectant mother's lower body before 28 weeks of pregnancy, accompanied by an obvious feeling of falling or discomfort such as back pain, abdominal pain, etc. If not treated promptly or symptoms worsen, it may lead to miscarriage. In reality, there are many expectant mothers who experience symptoms of threatened miscarriage. This is mainly related to their personal constitution, especially for those with a history of miscarriage. Health problems left over from miscarriage can often cause threatened miscarriage. In addition, high-risk and older pregnant women are also prone to encounter such situations because of their mental stress. |
