When the abdomen falls before giving birth, this means that the bottom of the uterus, which had previously abutted in the diaphragm, also fell. In this case, the future mother becomes a little easier to breathe. Also, such unpleasant sensations in the digestive organs can disappear, like heartburn and bloating. The exact time, for how many days before the delivery of the stomach falls, there is, since the pregnancy flows individually for each woman. But there are averages.
For those who will give birth for the first time, the tummy can descend for 2-4 weeks before childbirth. Those who are going to give birth again, this period is reduced to two days, but it can happen that the stomach falls directly on the day of childbirth. It is not so easy for a layman to see how the abdomen goes down before giving birth. It is believed that this happened when the palm is placed under the chest above the abdomen.
Some women, when the abdomen falls before giving birth, there are feelings that were not there before. For example, the urge to go to the toilet becomes even more frequent, in the lower abdomen there are drawing pains, while walking or sitting, there may be a feeling that something is pressing and hindering - this is the uterus itself. The dream becomes more and more torn, as it is more difficult to find a comfortable position. In order to roll over on the other side, you must first rise.
When the abdomen drops before giving birth, this is okay, as this means that the physiological processes are normal, and the future baby confidently moves towards the exit, occupying the most convenient position (most often head down) in the pelvic floor to At the right time to be closer to the exit. Abaissement does not mean that the delivery is about to begin. The kid is just getting ready, he decides for himself when he needs to be born. At the right time, he will allocate a hormone that will give the maternal pituitary gland a hormone that starts the process of opening the uterus.
To reduce motor activity, when the abdomen is lowered before delivery, it is not necessary that the body does not relax before the forthcoming load, was in shape and withstood the entire process of birth to the end, but it is also individual. Coping with pressure can be done by attending aqua aerobics classes: when the body is in the water, as if in weightlessness, it allows the muscles of the pelvic floor to relax from the pressure of the uterus.
It is necessary to exclude long walks or trips, because a long stay in one position makes the pressure even stronger. And if there is no possibility to change the pose, then the discomfort can increase, because of which the pressure will rise, and the overall state of health will worsen. You do not have to walk fast and especially to run after transport. Small walks in the evenings with her husband in the park are the best option, as there will be places where you can sit and relax. If the sensation of pain is strong, stop or sit down to wait for it. The baby will turn over, the discomfort will go away, and you can safely move on. In the last three or four weeks before giving birth, it is more to take care of yourself, to stick to the leisurely and relaxed rhythm of life. Try to be in harmony with yourself and as little as possible to hammer your head with imaginary problems. Pregnancy is a time of rest before endless parental everyday life.
