In this case, it should be thought that labor may start within a few hours, a warm shower should be taken, nothing should be eaten or drunk, and your doctor should be informed about the situation. Wait for the onset of pain to go to the hospital.
If there are rhythmic pains every 2 – 10 minutes lasting about 1 – 2 minutes, increasing in frequency and intensity, hitting from the waist to the groin and accompanied by hardening in the abdomen, “regardless of the week of pregnancy”, labor may have started. Your doctor should be informed about the situation and you should go to the designated hospital.
3- The baby’s amniotic fluid may come out even before the pain starts. We can think if there is a clear or green-brown liquid discharge that will wet the clothes on the clothes or pass to the bed. As soon as the condition is noticed, you should not eat or drink anything and your doctor should be informed.
If the discharge is clear and there is no pain, if a vaginal delivery is planned, a warm shower should be taken and if a caesarean section is planned, you should go to the designated hospital without taking a shower.
If the discharge is green or brown, the baby may have defecated in the womb before birth. In this case, you should go to the designated hospital immediately.
4- The most risky situation during pregnancy is vaginal bleeding. Any bleeding at normal menstrual intensity or more, painful or painless, light or dark in color is a risky situation for the baby and the mother in every period of pregnancy. You should call your doctor urgently. As the week of pregnancy progresses, you should go to the designated hospital as soon as possible as the bleeding is likely to intensify and the risk to the baby and mother will increase.
If you experience any of the above conditions at any time during pregnancy, you should inform your doctor by phone or SMS at any time of the day and do not eat or drink anything.
If your pregnancy is over 36 weeks and a vaginal delivery is planned, the onset of pain and/or clear amniotic fluid is usually not an emergency, except in case of bleeding. In these two cases, if a vaginal delivery is planned, it will be relaxing to take a warm shower before going to the hospital. However, if a caesarean section is planned, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible.
In pregnancies under 36 weeks of gestation, premature birth or miscarriage may occur in the above cases. Some preterm births and miscarriages can be prevented if treatment is started on time. Therefore, you should call your doctor immediately.
