The entire nine-month journey of pregnancy is the most beautiful, sensitive and exciting phase of any woman’s life, during which every mother-to-be weaves new dreams every moment to welcome her little guest. If the doctor reports in every regular checkup for nine months that both the child in the womb and the mother are completely healthy and safe, then there is a wonderful peace and confidence in the mind. But as the delivery approaches or sometimes suddenly at the last moment, the situation changes so rapidly that the pregnancy which seemed normal till a moment suddenly becomes a very big and serious threat to the life of both the mother and the child. Recently, a senior gynecologist of a well-known hospital of the country, while talking openly on this shocking topic, has warned about some such dangerous symptoms, which women or their families often ignore considering them normal. In today’s very important and detailed article, we are going to tell you in detail about those 5 secret and dangerous signs told by the doctor, as soon as they are seen, it is wise to go to the hospital immediately.
Generally, there is a big and confusing belief in the minds of people that if the baby’s growth and the mother’s blood pressure are normal in the ultrasound report for the initial and entire nine months, then the delivery will be done in a very smooth and normal manner. However, medical science and obstetrics experts believe that the condition of the human body and the baby in the womb can change at any moment, because during the onset of labor pain, there are sudden huge fluctuations in the hormonal levels of the body. Sudden displacement of the placenta, sudden change in position of the baby in the womb or umbilical cord getting wrapped around its neck are such unpredictable factors that can turn any healthy and normal pregnancy into a high-risk case in a moment. This is why doctors clearly say that even after a comfortable journey of nine months, women and their families should not be careless in the last weeks and should keep a close eye on every small change in the body.
In the last stages of pregnancy, if a pregnant woman suddenly starts feeling a severe headache which is not relieved by any simple painkiller pill or rest, then it can be a clear sign that her blood pressure has increased to a dangerous level. In medical language, this condition is called pre-eclampsia i.e. high blood pressure related to pregnancy, due to which not only the mother is at risk of having seizures but it can also completely disrupt the supply of blood and oxygen to the baby in the womb. Along with this, if suddenly a lot of swelling starts appearing on a woman’s face, fingers or toes and her eyes are swollen as soon as she wakes up in the morning, then it should not be considered a normal physical change and should not be ignored at all. These types of symptoms directly warn that the woman’s kidneys and blood arteries are working under extreme pressure, and if a doctor is not consulted in time, it can prove to be a fatal condition for both the mother and the child.
Fetal movements are considered to be the biggest measure of a healthy baby’s health, and even in the ninth month, the baby should kick or move a certain number of times throughout the day. If one day you feel that the baby’s movements have suddenly reduced or he has stopped moving at all, then it is a serious sign that the baby is not getting adequate amount of oxygen or nutrition inside the womb. Apart from this, if any kind of light or heavy vaginal bleeding starts before the delivery date or during the ninth month, then it can be a clear evidence of a serious medical emergency like placenta previa or placental abruption. In both these situations, you should immediately contact your gynecologist without delaying even a minute, because in such emergency situations, every second is precious and if timely treatment is not received, life can also be lost.
Before the end of the ninth month, if the amniotic sac suddenly bursts without any labor pain and fluid starts flowing from the body, then it is called water leakage which is a sign of the beginning of labor. If this water is green or brown in color, it means that the baby has pooped inside the womb, which is called meconium aspiration in medical language, and this condition can be extremely toxic and dangerous for the baby’s lungs. Along with this, if there is a continuous sharp and twisting unbearable pain in the lower abdomen which is increasing with time instead of decreasing, then never mistake it for normal pain and tolerate it at home. Keep these five important warnings from the doctor in mind, get yourself checked regularly, and immediately reach the hospital as soon as you notice any unusual symptoms to ensure the safe delivery of yourself and your baby.
