Hello, starting from the 12th week of pregnancy, the uterus may experience irregular contractions, which are characterized by hardness and swelling in the abdomen but are generally not accompanied by pain. These contractions are relatively mild and do not cause preterm labor. You may experience fewer false contractions. It is recommended to avoid sexual activity in the late stages of pregnancy, maintain a balanced diet, adopt a left lateral position, closely monitor fetal movement or contractions, and undergo regular prenatal check-ups. Rest well during the later stages of pregnancy and avoid strenuous exercise. Pay attention to increasing your nutrition and consuming more iron-rich, easily digestible foods to prevent anemia. Additionally, monitor your blood pressure and observe whether your hands and feet are swollen to prevent gestational hypertension. Maintain a low-sodium diet.
