How long will it take for regular uterine contractions to result in birth? How to deal with it?

Pregnancy is a major event in life and the most important period of time in a family. It takes about 9 months from pregnancy to delivery. A few days before delivery, pregnant women will experience uterine contractions, which means that the fetus is about to be born. Accurate prediction of uterine contractions is very helpful in preparing for the birth of the fetus. Let’s take a look at how long it will take for regular uterine contractions to lead to birth. How to deal with it?

Uterine contractions in the late pregnancy are often false contractions at first. You don't need to worry too much about it and you don't need to go to the hospital. Generally speaking, false contractions may occur from the 28th week of pregnancy. If there is no bleeding, pain and other symptoms at this time, it is false contractions and you don't need to worry about it. If bleeding and pain occur, it may be premature birth and you need to go to the hospital for medical treatment in time.

Generally speaking, irregular uterine contractions occur after 37 weeks of pregnancy, and the fetus descends in the mother's abdomen. The pregnant woman experiences lower abdominal distension, constant urge to go to the toilet, and increased vaginal secretions. At this time, she needs to keep herself clean, as delivery is imminent. Let’s talk about the symptoms of uterine contractions during delivery. Only when such uterine contractions occur does delivery really occur.

Solution:

1. Uterine contractions cause pain, which gradually intensifies and the intervals between them shorten. This is when the baby is about to be born.

2. Contractions come in waves, with waves of pain spreading to the lower abdomen, or there is a feeling of lower back pain and bowel movements in the lower abdomen. These contractions are in preparation for the birth of the fetus.

3. The contractions become more and more frequent, and the pain becomes more and more intense. At this time, you must hold your strength, do not shout, endure the pain, and use your strength for delivery. If you shout, it will consume a lot of physical energy and cause increased contractions, and even lead to dystocia and fetal death.

4. If the amniotic fluid has not broken, the expectant mother can relieve the pain by taking a walk, which can also reduce tension.
