There is nasal discharge when the due date comes

When the due date comes, women's bodies will change, and women's lower body secretions will become more and more, and some women's lower body secretions are even brown in color, which makes some women more worried. In fact, this is a normal physiological manifestation, and the birth will soon take place, and this phenomenon will disappear. So what should you do if you have snot-like discharge when the due date comes?

The yellowish, snot-like substance discharged from the vagina is amniotic fluid, which means that the amniotic fluid has broken. This proves that there is no abdominal pain because there are no contractions, and that the birth is imminent. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and hospitalization as soon as possible to avoid danger.

1. The due date is approaching, and it is a sign of preparing for delivery.

As your due date approaches, your body starts sending out signals that it's preparing for birth. For example: symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, increased secretions, and smooth digestion may occur. If you are a first-time mother, this symptom will appear 2 weeks before the expected date of delivery, so you must be fully prepared for delivery.

Active stomach and smooth digestion

As the due date approaches, the fetus will move down into the pelvis and will no longer squeeze the stomach, so the symptoms of chest tightness will suddenly disappear, and the appetite will increase greatly, and digestion will become smooth.

Frequent abdominal cramping

In the 9th month of pregnancy, due to the contraction of the uterus, symptoms such as lower back pain, hardness in the lower abdomen, and mild labor pains may occur. This symptom is called prelabor pain. Sensitive pregnant women may easily mistakenly think that this is real labor pain. In fact, the characteristics of true labor are that the labor cycle gradually shortens and has a certain regularity; on the contrary, the uterine contractions of pre-labor are weaker and irregular.

The fetus's movements become sluggish

During this period, the fetus will enter the pelvis, so the fetal movement will be significantly reduced, and the fetal activity will become sluggish, and there will even be an illusion that the fetal movement has stopped; but although the fetal movement at this time is not frequent, it has not completely stopped, so there is no need to worry too much.

Frequent urination

As the fetus moves down into the pelvis, it squeezes the bladder, causing frequent urination. If you go to the bathroom more than 2-3 times at night, it means you are close to giving birth.

Increased secretions

Due to the influence of hormones, the viscous secretions in the vagina and cervix gradually increase. These mucus can lubricate the birth canal and thus help with delivery; but as the amount of mucus increases, the probability of bacterial infection also increases, so be careful to keep it clean.
