When does the first baby come into the pelvis?

Pregnancy is a big event for women. The whole pregnancy period is about ten months. During this period, women should not only maintain a balanced diet, but also pay attention to exercise to prepare for delivery. After the fetus enters the pelvis, they will face delivery, but when does the first baby usually enter the pelvis? Relatively speaking, the baby will enter the pelvis around the 36th week. At this time, you should be prepared for delivery and do appropriate exercise.

How many weeks does the first fetus enter the pelvis?

Around 36 weeks of pregnancy, the baby's head will enter the mother's pelvis, that is, the biparietal diameter of the fetal head will enter the lower end of the mother's pelvic entrance and be symmetrical with the pelvis. This phenomenon is called "fetal engagement", which is a signal that the baby is ready to come and is also the first step in the normal delivery process. According to statistics, 80-90% of first-time mothers will show signs of engagement at 37-38 weeks of pregnancy, that is, the baby's head successfully enters the mother's pelvic cavity. The time of pelvic engagement can be early or late. For a small number of people, the pelvic engagement may occur before delivery, while for some people, signs of pelvic engagement appear as early as 33 or 34 weeks of pregnancy, and some people do not enter the pelvic engagement until just before delivery. For expectant mothers who are pregnant with their second child, most of the time, signs of the baby entering the pelvis will not appear until the eve of delivery. Whether the baby's head can smoothly enter the pelvis is an important indicator for doctors to judge whether a normal delivery can be achieved. However, according to statistics, most mothers who have not shown signs of engagement in the pelvis at 38 weeks of pregnancy can give birth smoothly, and only a small number of them need a caesarean section. Therefore, expectant mothers do not need to worry too much about the early or late time of engagement in the pelvis.

How to deal with the fetus not entering the pelvis

Usually by the ninth month of pregnancy, the fetus will enter the pelvis of women giving birth for the first time. However, in a small number of women, the fetus's head has not yet entered the pelvis, which means the fetus has not entered the pelvis. There are many reasons why the fetus does not enter the pelvis, such as the fetus is too large, the fetus's head is not symmetrical with the pelvis, the fetal head is difficult to descend, the umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck, placenta previa, etc. However, there are also expectant mothers who have never experienced the above reasons and the fetus still does not enter the pelvis. To speed up the fetus' entry into the pelvis, expectant mothers may wish to do more exercise: walking can not only exercise the pelvic ligaments,
