What is the cause of uterine contractions at 35 weeks of pregnancy?

Pregnancy is the most important period in a woman's life. During this period, women will use all their energy to supplement the baby's physical growth and development. Therefore, for the baby, the mother's health is their own health. Some pregnant women experience uterine contractions at 35 weeks of pregnancy. Some phenomena are more serious and women don’t know what is going on. Let’s take a look at the relevant introduction below.

There are two types of uterine contractions: "false contractions and real contractions". The former means that the abdomen becomes tight and hard in waves, but it does not hurt. At this time, the pregnant mother needs to rest and relax, and everything will return to normal after a while. Don't worry. The latter is regular tightness and hardness of the abdomen accompanied by abdominal pain, which is a signal that the baby is about to come out.

1. Uterine fundus descent:

About two weeks before delivery, the fundus of the uterus will drop in a first-time mother. At this time, she will feel relaxed in the upper abdomen, and her breathing will become smoother than before. The uncomfortable feeling of stomach pressure will be relieved a lot, and her appetite will also increase accordingly.

2. There is a feeling of oppression in the lower abdomen:

Due to the descent, the part that will be exposed first during delivery has already dropped to the entrance of the pelvis, causing distension in the lower abdomen and compression of the bladder. At this time, you will feel back pain and leg pain, difficulty walking, and frequent urination.

From the above introduction, it can be seen that uterine contractions at 35 weeks of pregnancy are a symptom that is more common during pregnancy. This symptom needs to be paid special attention to by women, because women's bodies need certain care, especially for women who are pregnant for the first time. They don't understand some of the body's reactions well and are easily panicked.
