Belly tearing pain in late pregnancy

The phenomenon of tearing pain in the belly in the late pregnancy is also common. Most of the time it is caused by the continuous growth of the fetus. As a pregnant woman, you must have a good attitude and pay attention to rest. When the symptoms are more serious, you need to go to the hospital for treatment, preferably to a Grade A hospital, because there are advanced equipment and doctors have rich clinical experience. Let us take a closer look at the relevant circumstances of tearing pain in the belly in the late pregnancy.

In the late pregnancy, as the fetus continues to grow, the burden on the expectant mother's abdomen and body gradually increases. In addition, as delivery is approaching, the frequency of abdominal pain will increase significantly compared to the second trimester.

1. Physiological abdominal pain

①As the baby grows, the expectant mother's uterus also gradually expands. The enlarged uterus constantly stimulates the lower edge of the ribs, which can cause dull rib pain in expectant mothers. Generally speaking, this is physiological and does not require special treatment. Lying on the left side can help relieve pain.

② In the late pregnancy, expectant mothers sometimes experience lower abdominal pain due to false labor when resting at night. The pain usually lasts only a few seconds, with intervals of several hours. It is not accompanied by a feeling of falling, and the symptoms will be relieved during the day.

2. Pathological abdominal pain

① Placental abruption: It often occurs in the late pregnancy. The expectant mother may have pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, chronic hypertension, or abdominal trauma. Tearing pain in the lower abdomen is a typical symptom, often accompanied by vaginal bleeding. The degree of abdominal pain is affected by a combination of factors such as the size of the abruption area, the amount of blood, the internal pressure of the uterus, and whether the uterine muscle layer is damaged. In severe cases, the abdominal pain is unbearable, the abdomen becomes hard, the fetal movement disappears, and even shock may occur. Therefore, in the late stages of pregnancy, expectant mothers with high blood pressure or abdominal trauma should go to the hospital in time to prevent accidents.

②If the expectant mother suddenly feels persistent severe pain in the lower abdomen, it may be premature birth or threatened uterine rupture. You should go to the hospital for treatment in time and do not delay.
