At my last visit the doc mentioned this term and i didnt fully get what it means. I do feel my stomach getting tight on and off but no real pain. Trying to read up before my next appointment, can anyone explain in simple words?
My doctor described it as the uterus tightening often but without it being real labour. She said stay hydrated and rest, as dehydration can trigger it. But if the tightenings become regular or painful, she told me to call immediately.
I had frequent tightenings and my doctor monitored me closely to rule out preterm labour. Please dont brush it off, especially if it becomes regular or you have pressure or pain. Get your gynac to check it.
