However, there are still very few babies born on the expected date of delivery, and most people's situation is either early or late. Therefore, pregnant mothers are inevitably nervous in the third trimester. In fact, mothers don't have to be too nervous, because if the baby is about to be born, there are signs on the pregnant mother. In the third trimester, if pregnant mothers have these major phenomena, it means that the baby is about to be born:
1, the shape of the abdomen changes
This is because before delivery, the fetus has to put its head into the pelvic cavity from the mother's pelvic entrance, so as to consolidate its body position and wait for it to come out of the mother's stomach. At this time, many pregnant mothers can feel that the position of the fetus has dropped, and it may be accompanied by a slight pain. After the fetus enters the basin, pregnant mothers should pay more attention to rest and try not to lift heavy objects. This is to prevent premature rupture of membranes caused by excessive abdominal falling force.
2, irregular contractions will be more frequent.
In the third trimester of pregnancy, pregnant mothers will have uterine contractions due to the stimulation of pudendal and other organs due to fetal falling, which may occur several weeks in advance and without any regularity (sometimes there will be some false contractions). If it is before the actual delivery, the contractions here will be different and more regular, accompanied by severe pain (such as pain in the abdomen, back, legs and other places), then the family must hurry to send pregnant mothers to the hospital.
3. Frequent urination
After the fetus enters the basin, the uterus will constantly change, pressing the bladder in the front wall of the uterus to store urine. At this time, the function of bladder to store urine will be weakened, and pregnant mothers will have frequent urination. It should be noted here that if frequent urination is accompanied by dysuria and hematuria, you should be alert to the possibility of urinary tract infection.
4, see red in the third trimester
This is a reliable feature before delivery, because in general, labor pains will begin within 24 hours after seeing red. However, in reality, many people basically give birth after a few days or even a week. There is another situation that needs special attention when you see redness during pregnancy. If you find that the amount of bleeding at this time is equivalent to or even exceeds the amount of bleeding during your physiological period, or it is a large amount of bleeding and will be accompanied by abdominal pain, you must go to the hospital immediately at this time, because this may be a bleeding phenomenon caused by blood vessel rupture caused by placental abruption, which is not a precursor to childbirth.
5. Breathing and body will be easier.
Because the fetus has entered the basin, the fetal position will drop. At this time, the pressure on the diaphragm, lungs, heart and stomach will be alleviated, and the whole body will feel more relaxed. At this time, you will feel easier to breathe and your appetite will be better.
Of course, the most important thing for pregnant mothers during this period is to relax themselves, because if you are very nervous, it will make the production process more difficult. At this time, pregnant mothers can go to the park, listen to some soft and soothing music, read some books that can calm their mood, make some psychological hints about themselves, and drive away all the unpleasant emotions inside.
Finally, I wish all expectant mothers can meet their little babies smoothly ~
