What is the reason for intermittent tightness and hardness in the abdomen at 38 weeks of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Could you please tell me what causes intermittent tightness and hardness in the abdomen at 38 weeks of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Prenatal Examination---Clinical examinations performed on pregnant women and fetuses during pregnancy. Due to the growth and development of the fetus, a series of adaptive changes occur in the various systems of the pregnant woman's body. If these changes exceed the physiological range or the pregnant woman suffers from a disease that cannot adapt to pregnancy, pathological conditions can arise in both the pregnant woman and the fetus. Through prenatal examinations, complications (such as pre-existing diseases in the pregnant woman, like heart disease) and complications (such as diseases that occur during pregnancy, like preeclampsia) can be detected and prevented early, abnormal fetal positions can be corrected in a timely manner, and fetal abnormalities can be identified, determining the mode of delivery.
