Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often experience lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Is it normal for the abdomen to harden at 30 weeks of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
This phenomenon is called Braxton Hicks contractions, which are normal. There is no regular pattern in terms of timing. When Braxton Hicks contractions occur, try to keep your body still and rest in place for a while, and it will improve. There is no danger. Generally, doctors recommend that women with signs of potential reproductive risks should pay attention to keeping warm and avoid coldness. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to having a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
