Will the abdominal cramps of a pregnant woman mean she is about to give birth?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is it normal for a pregnant woman to have cramping in her abdomen?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, pay attention to observing the symptoms of pain. If the pain is regular and lasts for about 3-5 minutes, it could be a sign of labor. At the same time, note that if your due date has passed by five days, it is recommended to go to the hospital. Because after the due date, due to reduced or cloudy amniotic fluid and excessive aging of the placenta, it may no longer meet the baby's blood and oxygen supply needs.
