Now that the country allows having a second child, many families will add a baby, but due to the long time between the first child and the second child, many things are not very clear. I am also confused about when my second child will be born and worried about encountering problems during childbirth in the future. So how do you know if you have a second child?
For women who are planning to have a second child, the signs of entering the womb are mostly around the time of giving birth. The ability of a baby's head to enter the pelvis well is the indicator for doctors to determine whether a woman should have a vaginal delivery. However, there are also some women who have not yet entered the womb at 38 weeks. It is recommended that mothers not be too concerned about the timing of entering the womb.
At around 36 weeks of pregnancy, the head will enter the pelvis, and at this time, the biparietal diameter of the fetal head will slowly and smoothly enter the lower end of the pelvic cavity, playing a symmetrical role with the pelvis, which is called "fetal pelvic insertion". It is not only an important process of vaginal delivery, but also a signal sent by the baby during childbirth.
The baby's head lifting into the pot does not necessarily mean immediate delivery, it is a precursor to childbirth. For women who are pregnant for the first time, most of them will not show signs of childbirth until two to three weeks after the baby enters the womb. For women who are pregnant with a second child, they will directly enter the delivery stage after entering the womb, so it is safer and more secure to go to the hospital in a timely manner.
