Lower abdomen feels heavy with contractions but no pain, no bleeding, no water breaking—is it about time to give birth?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, labor can begin within 24 to 48 hours after the bloody show. You can go to the hospital for another check-up. It is recommended: For this situation, don't hurry if it's your first pregnancy after the bloody show. You can wait and see, prepare your hospital bag, documents, etc., and then go to the hospital to wait for delivery when you have contractions.
