Please is contraction same with cramps. I’m close to my EDD and some times I experience severe cramps for a long as 15 to 20mins. Please what sign is this.
Hi honey, it could be prodromal labour. That is a period of time where you experience contractions but then they disappear completely. I had this at week 37 & 38 of my pregnancy. It's probably just a sign that your baby is fully engaged and your cervix, baby and womb are getting geared up for labour to begin really soon. Are your contractions coming and going then disappearing or have things been progressing and you're noticing that the contractions are getting closer together? I didn't understand if you were telling me that the cramping is lasting 15-20 mins and going on constantly for that length of time or whether you are noticing this cramping every 15-20 mins. Please let me know x
Due with my first baby in 5 weeks not long to go thank you for sharing this video with all information. Researching as first time mum first time being pregnant so unsure what to look for and what to expect and when its time i can look for these signs symptoms
I hope you can help me. My tummy is always tight but only on the front, no pain in the back. But this, tightening last like 15-30 minutes, throughout the day, but not in regular interval. I also, cannot sleep well for the past few days to a week now. I cannot breath that well whenever I am about to go to bed. What is this?
@@HypnobirthingWithAnja lol no ma’am I was thinking of doing that but then I was liiikkeeeee noooopeeee so today it was the living room and kitchen tomorrow will be my sons room and the bathroom lol a little goes a long way here
I cant tell the difference between braxton hicks and baby movement…i need to know bc they ask me for my NSTs. Ive been thinking it’s been baby movements but they told me they’re contractions. Im so confused bc i cant find much on it online. I’m 36 and a half. High risk bc placental calcification, VCI, and pre pregnancy low bmi
Hi Brenda, BH contractions feel like abdominal tightening, like the skin and muscles go all tense over your entire baby bump. Baby kicks should feel more like a rummaging around inside your tummy and more jolting plus often felt in a certain area of the tummy rather. Hope that helps! I can't really think of any other way of describing it x
Usually the diarrhoea happens a few days before or on the day of labour. The lower belly cramps are usually a sign of early labour and the start of the cervical dilation phase. ❤️
Ohh when the Dr checked me today, she said I wasn't dilating yet plus the baby still has to move down some more. 38+3 days today. Do u have any tips on how to open cervix?
@@amazinglifeadventures your cervix will open in its own time but you can go for walks, have sex & eat dates. They are all meant to help open up the cervix. ❤️
@@amazinglifeadventures you're welcome! 🤗 Also check out my induce labour naturally video series here (the tips will help but don't overdo it- trust your body and your baby's timings): ru-vid.com/group/PLFP-bmfHKnIalMriUKaBrI9g-ABx6w-TU
When should labor begin after your water breaks? My water just broke and I’m planning on having a free birth without a midwife of doctor. When should I start to worry after my water broke and labor doesn’t start. So far I am leaking with every contraction every 20 minutes and I started 4 hours ago. Thank you!
Hi Ashley, it sounds like your labour has started if you're having contractions. Because I'm not a doctor I can't give you any medical advice. However, from what I know, you are meant to tell a doctor if your waters break and contractions haven't started within 24 hours or your labour isn't progressing because it is said that there may be risk of infection to a baby in the womb. However, if you're at home you and your baby are considered to be at less risk of infection because you're not in a hospital where there are lots of people and germs. I hope your free birth goes well. Do contact someone if you think you need extra medical advice though 😍❤️
I'm so sorry! It wasn't my intention to trigger you in any way when I created this video. Most women will not vomit in labour. Ways to prevent it include staying hydrated and not forgetting to eat little and often. Often an empty stomach can be a trigger for feeling or being sick in labour. Sometimes it's hormonal. Anyway, please accept my apologies for the trigger the video has caused you x
@@blakenelson5073 Hi! I know! When you are nauseous, it doesn't help seeing visuals of someone being sick so I totally understand! I hope your pregnancy nausea goes away soon! How many weeks pregnant are you right now? 💕
