You should know that the period of pregnancy is the most difficult, because you have to carry a big belly every day, and you also have to take into account the baby's feelings and your own physical health. It is really hard for one person to take care of these two people 24 hours a day. When you finally get to the late stage of pregnancy, you will start to feel a tingling sensation at the bottom of the uterus, which will also affect our normal metabolic system. What is going on? Abdominal pain in late pregnancy: Physiological abdominal pain 1. The enlarged uterus compresses the ribs and causes abdominal pain As the baby grows, the expectant mother's uterus also gradually expands. The enlarged uterus constantly stimulates the lower edge of the ribs, which can cause dull rib pain in expectant mothers. How to deal with it: This is physiological and does not require special treatment. Lying on the left side can help relieve pain. 2. Abdominal pain caused by false labor In the late pregnancy, false labor may cause mild distension and pain in the lower abdomen. It often occurs in the dead of night and disappears at dawn. The frequency of contractions is inconsistent, the duration is not constant, the intervals are long and irregular, the intensity of contractions does not gradually increase, and there is no feeling of falling, and the symptoms are relieved during the day. How to deal with it: False labor indicates that the pregnant woman will soon go into labor, so she should be prepared, such as getting enough rest, eating more high-energy foods such as chocolate, and conserving her energy. At the same time, you need to be familiar with the fetal movement pattern before delivery: the uterine contractions before delivery are rhythmic, and each contraction goes from weak to strong, lasting for a period of time, generally 30-40 seconds, and then disappears and enters an interval period of 5-6 minutes. 3. Fetal movement causes abdominal pain Fetal movements are most noticeable between 28 and 32 weeks. At 20 weeks, the average number of fetal movements per day is about 200, which increases to 375 at 32 weeks. The number of fetal movements per day may range from 100 to 700. After 32 weeks, the fetus gradually occupies the space in the uterus, and his (her) space for movement will become smaller and smaller, but he (she) will occasionally still kick you very hard. When his or her head hits the muscles of your pelvic floor, you will suddenly feel like you have been hit hard. How to deal with it: Self-test fetal movement. Starting from the 28th week of pregnancy, count the fetal movements three times a day, morning, noon and evening, for one hour each time. Add the total and multiply by 4 to get the fetal movements in 12 hours. If the fetal movement is ≥30/12 hours or ≤3 times/hour, it is normal. Will physiological abdominal pain in late pregnancy affect the fetus? Physiological abdominal pain in late pregnancy is normal and will not affect the fetus. Generally speaking, lower abdominal pain in the late pregnancy is a normal phenomenon. If it is not accompanied by other discomforts such as vaginal bleeding or water breaking, and the fetal movement is normal, the expectant mother does not need to be too nervous and just needs to rest. If a pregnant mother experiences abdominal pain while at work, she must put down her work, sit down and rest until the contractions stop. |
