Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. What are the symptoms of labor in pregnant women?Doctor's answer:
Labor Premonitions1. Show of Blood (Bloody Show). Due to the baby's descent, the amniotic sac covering the fetus detaches from the uterus, and the blood seeps into the cervical mucus. Therefore, what flows out is bloody mucus.
2. Contractions. Periodic abdominal pain accompanied by lower back pain and a sensation of heaviness. Contractions transition from irregular to regular, like waves surging in, with intermittent pain spreading to the lower abdomen, or a feeling of needing to defecate. Contractions prepare for the baby's birth. If you experience pain every 10 minutes, you should contact the hospital to arrange admission.
3. Water Breaking. Some labor contractions may not be regular. If you suddenly find your pants wet like urine, you should immediately go to the hospital for examination, regardless of whether there are obvious contractions.
