Im 7 months and everyone keeps saying watch out for contractions but honestly i dont even know what it feels like exactly. Is it like normal pet pain or something totally different? Pls explain in simple words yaar, first time mom here.
It's basically your uterine muscles tightening and relaxing to prepare for labor. There are Braxton Hicks which are practice contractions, and real labor ones. It's always best to ask your gynac to explain the difference so you know what to track.
Contractions actually help push the baby down. My doctor told me that if they are regular, painful, and getting closer together, it's real labor. If they go away when you walk or change positions, they are usually false ones.
Oh god, when I first felt my tummy getting super hard, I completely freaked out and rushed to the hospital! Turns out it was just a normal Braxton Hicks contraction. It's just the body preparing, so relax, it is totally normal in later months.
Dekho simple words mein, contraction matlab uterus ka tight hona. Pet ekdum tight ho jata hai hard ball jaisa thode seconds ke liye aur fir relax hota hai. Delivery pass aane par yeh badhta hai, don't worry.
Yes, but please be very careful about tracking them. If you feel severe pain, backache, or if the tightness is happening too frequently, please contact your gynac immediately. Safety first, never ignore these signals.
