In the late stages of pregnancy, as the fetus is about to give birth, pregnant women need to undergo prenatal check ups. At this time, the frequency of prenatal check ups may increase, depending on the results. Pregnant women only need to follow the doctor's instructions and undergo prenatal check ups on time. However, some pregnant women may not fully understand the data in the check ups. So, what does the connection between prenatal check ups mean?
The connection in prenatal examination refers to the insertion of the fetus into the pelvic cavity. Most primiparous women have the fetal head connected 1-2 weeks before delivery, while multiparous women may only have the connection during delivery. If the fetal head has not yet entered the pelvic cavity after the uterine contractions are initiated, it should be noted that this may be due to the mismatch between the head and the pelvic cavity. Either the fetal head is too large or the pelvis is narrow, which may require cesarean section.
After the connection occurs, pregnant women will have a more obvious feeling, such as a decrease in pressure on their body, feeling much more comfortable than before, and their stomach will no longer be pressed, so their appetite will improve and increase.
Fetal delivery usually occurs after 36 weeks of pregnancy, and delivery does not occur immediately after delivery. Pregnant women should not be too anxious, and only seek medical attention promptly when symptoms of childbirth appear. However, the situation of each pregnant woman is different, so the timing of the transition is also different. Pregnant women do not need to be too anxious, as long as the results of the prenatal examination are normal, there are no major problems.
