The first signs of starting birth in women

Women are reported about the onset of childbirth, the so -called "harbingers". Their appearance is very easy to recognize, so it is important to remember the main symptoms. Of course, each of them can manifest itself in different ways, because it all depends only on the individual characteristics of the body.

It is also noted that the intensity of the sensations of “harbinger” can be felt less and stronger, depending on the state of health of the woman, the number of childbirth in the account, the sex of the unborn child, and the preparation of the woman in labor.

Important: progesterone is a hormone that ruled a woman’s pregnancy with all the period of pregnancy, at the end of the term is declining, giving way to estrogen. The hormonal and nervous system by all means signals a woman about childbirth.

There are several main "harbingers" on which all women in labor are guided by:

lowering the abdomen below the usual level
the expansion of the bones of the pelvis and muscle pain in the perineum, slowing down and making it painful
crackers of the limbs, severe swelling and numbness of the arms and legs
training contractions
frequent bowel movements
the departure of traffic jams and amniotic fluid

When should the birth begin at what time?

Doctors noted that the normal pre -human period begins at 38 weeks, i.e. From 38 weeks from conception, the first harbingers can already be expected. It is from this time that the intrauterine child can be considered fully developed and full -term. Childbirth can occur in any of the weeks: by 38, 39, 40, 41 and 42nd.

Calculation of the date of birth — calculation of the date of birth

Important: but do not worry too much, since the body will definitely begin to report as soon as possible.

Gynecologists put the estimated date of birth in the fortieth week, as this is the most favorable time. If the gestational age lasts more than 42 weeks, then the child is called “transferred” and this can be detrimental to his health.

Important: if you count, then in the period from 38 to 42 it turns out exactly 4 weeks of painful questions: "When will the birth begin and how to understand that their harbingers have already begun?"

How long does the training contractions begin before childbirth?

Nature is conceived so that the child does not experience any difficulties and be fully provided with the necessary substances in the womb. So nature took care of the mother, giving it the opportunity to prepare the muscles of the pelvis for the upcoming childbirth. It is this "training" is called "training contractions."

Important: training contractions of various intensities can accompany the entire pregnancy. As a result, by the duration of childbirth, the muscles become more elastic, and the cervix is \u200b\u200bsignificantly shortened, giving the baby the opportunity to be born.

It is not rare that doctors call such contractions "Breston Hicks' fights." They are distinguished by a significant contraction of muscles in the period of time for one or two minutes. As a rule, such contractions can be expected from the twentieth week of pregnancy. Many women may not even understand what training contractions have experienced. All because the stomach in the twentieth week is quite small, which means the muscles are not too stretched.

The discharge of the mucous plug, which clogged the cervix from the penetration of infection into it. It looks different, but basically it has a size no more than a coin and a jelly -like structure of a yellowish tint with blood interspersed
Not regular, characteristic and intensity of training contractions. They can be caught by a woman at any time of the day: day and night. If you constantly feel the return of pain with periodic breaks, do not bother to find a sheet of paper and record each interval: pain (duration) - rest (duration). If the "rest" becomes five -minute and regular - to go to the hospital
Opinion down the abdomen can be either noticeable or completely incomprehensible. The stomach does not fall sharply and it is impossible to feel. The symptom has its name because the uterus tenses, hardens, is heavy and due to this the fruit pulls the stomach down
Reducing the activity of the fetus often suggests that the child is preparing to be born
The intestines are a clear sign of prenatal activity. The body begins to prepare and facilitates its task, displacing excess masses from the intestines. It often happens that women are tormented by constipation, and in recent days a liquid chair suddenly rarely occurs

How do premature births in women begin?

Premature birth is always the struggle for survival. The reasons for such childbirth can be different:

endocrine diseases
infectious diseases
genital infections
somatic infections
pathologies and malformations, anomalies
genetic diseases
various complications of pregnancy
back and abdomen injuries
early age of the woman in labor (up to 18 years)
flexive living conditions
not full nutrition
bad habits: smoking, alcohol consumption
physical work
wearing
stress

Each reason corresponds to a different term of premature birth. Childbirth from 22 weeks to 27 most often end in the death of the fetus. All because having a weight of 500 grams or more, the child is simply not able to survive. If the child survives, he has huge chances to stay disabled for the rest of his life.

Childbirth from 28 weeks to 33rd allow the child to survive with proper care and provision. The weight of the child ranges from 1 kilogram to 1800 grams. At this age, the baby has quite developed light and medications can fully support it. Childbirth from 34 weeks are almost not dangerous. Such a child born in the hospital will remain completely healthy and secure necessary care.

Premature birth most often begins with inexplicable abdominal pain and lower back. A woman cannot endure such sensations and they have the character of fights. It is not rarely that the women in labor notice the discharge of the mucosa in the early stages of pregnancy, which also suggests that the birth will be premature. If the birth has begun, they can’t stop them anymore. Therefore, you need to urgently contact the hospital for help.
