The most anticipated day for every pregnant woman is the estimated date of her birth. Usually, with the moment of the onset of the cherished day, the expectant mother, worried and worried, begins to closely monitor her condition. It often happens that a pregnant woman takes a slight malaise for the onset of labor. To avoid such mistakes and unnecessary worries, every expectant mother should know the signs that speak of the imminent onset of childbirth.
Instructions
Step 1
Many pregnant women, shortly before the expected date of birth, begin to feel short and painless uterine contractions. These are the so-called training fights. It is almost impossible to confuse them with real ones, because the frequency and intensity of false contractions does not increase. Such training uterine contractions can last up to several hours.
Step 2
Some women in the last weeks of pregnancy notice unpleasant pulling sensations in the lower abdomen. This is how the stretched ligaments remind of themselves.
Step 3
Aching pain in the perineal region indicates a gradual divergence of the pubic bones, which is also an indicator that the long-awaited birth is just around the corner.
Step 4
Starting from 35 weeks, many pregnant women who are actively preparing for childbirth have some discomfort in the hip area. The occurrence of this unpleasant sensation is explained by the fact that the baby begins to twist his head around to the sides.
Step 5
Abdominal prolapse, a maximum of a month before the expected date of birth, suggests that the baby is moving deeper and deeper into the pelvic region. The fact that the stomach has dropped can be recognized by some signs, the most frequent of which is a significant relief in the breathing of the expectant mother.
Step 6
A couple of days before giving birth, a pregnant woman may notice light or brown thick mucous discharge on her underwear. This is a mucous plug that protects the uterus from various bacteria entering it.
Step 7
Many women, shortly before childbirth, also note an increased urge to urinate and loose stools.
Step 8
And some expectant mothers, before giving birth, have an inexplicable desire to do a general cleaning, sew themselves or buy toys and clothes for the long-awaited baby in the store. This is often referred to as the nesting syndrome in a pregnant woman.
Step 9
It also happens that a few days, and sometimes hours, before childbirth, a pregnant woman begins to suffer a feeling of coldness and chills.
