What to do if you have spotting during 8 months of pregnancy

If you suddenly see spotting when you are eight months pregnant, don't panic and stay calm. Because if the pregnant woman's emotions fluctuate too much, the problem of spotting will become more and more serious. You should go to the hospital for a pregnancy check-up in time. Sometimes this problem is caused by signs of premature birth. If it is accompanied by labor pains, it may be the time of delivery. At this time, you must stay calm and wait for delivery.

Labor pains

Generally speaking, labor pains will begin within 24 hours after the onset of bleeding, and the delivery stage will begin. But the reality is that many people give birth a few days or even a week after spotting. There are great individual differences, so the key is to observe its shape, color, quantity, etc. after seeing the red and then make a judgment.

Example: Shun Shun baby (11 months)

I had spotting 2 days ago, my water broke on the same day, then I had labor pains, and finally I had a caesarean section.

I went to the hospital after having spotting 2 days before my due date. Although there was only a light pink blood, I was planning to have a caesarean section, so I stayed in the hospital waiting for delivery, and I didn't have any more spotting during that time. Unexpectedly, on the day of the due date, my water broke immediately after the catheter was inserted and I started to have contractions. After a while, I was pushed onto the operating table. After the operation, the baby was born smoothly.

Features

1. Brown, pink, and red are all possible colors;

2. The amount of bleeding is significantly less than that during menstrual period;

3. It usually occurs 24 hours before contractions, but varies from person to person. Mixed mucus flows out with a thick texture.

substance

Seeing blood actually means a small amount of vaginal bleeding, which depends on when you are bleeding during your pregnancy. If it is at full term, the uterine blood vessels may shorten or dilate a little, which may cause some vaginal bleeding, which means that delivery may be imminent.

response

Because of the contraction of the uterus, the baby's head begins to fall into the pelvis, and the fetal membrane and uterine wall gradually separate and the friction will cause blood vessels to rupture and bleed, which is commonly known as spotting. It is usually a pink or brown viscous liquid, or blood in the secretions. Generally, spotting occurs 24 hours before labor pains, but it may also occur repeatedly a few days before delivery or even a week before delivery. If there is only a light streak of blood and the amount is not large, the pregnant mother can stay at home to observe and pay attention not to overwork and avoid strenuous exercise. If you experience fresh bleeding, the amount of bleeding exceeds that during your menstrual period, or you experience abdominal pain, you should be hospitalized immediately. You can go to the hospital on your own, there is no need to call an ambulance.
