How to relieve false labor

How to relieve false labor

False labor usually occurs in the late pregnancy. Pregnant women will feel very uncomfortable when false labor occurs, because they will feel the uterus shrinking obviously and feel stomach pain. Therefore, in the late pregnancy, pregnant women should learn to relieve false labor by themselves, and massage themselves when necessary. So how can false labor be relieved?

False labor, also called false labor. Although it is false labor, it can easily bring negative effects to the mother's body that cannot be ignored. The time of occurrence is irregular and the intensity is sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and it stops after a few hours. False labor can give mothers wrong signals and cause panic. So how to relieve false labor? Let me give you the answer.

1. Adjust your breathing and relax

When pregnant women experience false labor, they may become short of breath due to nervousness. At this time, they should immediately adjust their breathing and relax. Even, slow, deep breathing helps relax muscles throughout the body, regardless of whether it is a false labor or not. In addition, a good mood is also a good medicine for pregnant women. Psychological states such as irritability, anxiety, and fear may aggravate the symptoms of false labor.

2. Read more books about pregnancy

After reading certain books, mothers will have a certain understanding of uterine contractions, and naturally they will not be afraid, which can help them stabilize their psychology.

3. Pay attention to replenishing water

Muscle cells may experience brief contractions after dehydration, so mild dehydration may also be a cause of false labor. Therefore, mothers can drink more water (the water should be warm, not cold water) to help relieve uterine contractions.

4. Change your sleeping position

In the late stages of pregnancy, maintaining a posture for a long time can not only easily lead to lower limb edema, but also cause irregular contractions of the uterine muscles. If a pregnant woman experiences false labor, the symptom will gradually ease after changing her position. You can stand up and take a walk, or lean on the sofa and listen to some music. In short, you should find a more comfortable posture. Proper walking can also help relieve this false labor condition.

5. Regular breathing

① Lie flat on your back, close your eyes, relax your mind, and breathe deeply through your nose. ② Take deep breaths through your mouth to relax your abdomen. ③After inhaling through the nose, hold your breath, and then exhale deeply. This kind of breathing can also relieve frequent uterine contractions.

6. Take good care of yourself during pregnancy

Try to avoid factors that trigger "uterine contractions".

The above is the method of relieving false labor summarized by Mawang. I hope it will be helpful to all mothers. False labor is a normal phenomenon and can be relieved with a little adjustment. Mothers don’t need to worry too much, but when you are about to give birth, you should still go to the hospital to prevent emergencies! I wish all mothers a smooth delivery!
