When about to give birth, many pregnant women may struggle to distinguish between amniotic fluid and urine. Many pregnant women in the later stages of pregnancy worry that they may not know even if their amniotic fluid breaks. What if the amniotic fluid breaks? In fact, don't be afraid, as long as you prepare in advance and deal with it calmly. How do I usually go downstairs when my amniotic fluid breaks?
Firstly, once the amniotic fluid ruptures prematurely, the mother and her family should not panic too much. When they are at a loss, they are prone to impulsive behavior. The first thing to do at this point is to have the pregnant woman lie down, which can effectively prevent fetal umbilical cord prolapse and adopt a posture of raising the hips.
Finally, whenever there is a breakthrough in water, regardless of whether the mother gives birth or the uterus contracts, they must immediately rush to the hospital for treatment. Even on the way to the hospital, people need to adopt a high hip lying posture.
There are various types of amniotic fluid rupture, including low-grade rupture and high-grade rupture. Water visible at low water level: The water visible position is low. Near the vagina, watery substances will flow out of the vagina in large quantities. High level water breakthrough: The water breakthrough is located relatively high, near the top of the uterus, making it difficult to distinguish and diagnose.
Specifically, odor is an important distinguishing factor, as urine has a strong or even pungent odor. Amniotic fluid smells very natural, even sweet. During the last three months of pregnancy, it is normal for the bladder to leak a few drops of urine due to immense pressure. Amniotic fluid rupture indicates that the child is about to be born. After amniotic fluid rupture, the fetus is prone to hypoxia and should be sent to the hospital as soon as possible. If the amniotic fluid volume is clear enough, BB can last until birth. If the amniotic fluid is not turbid enough, it means that the fetus is lacking oxygen and requires immediate surgery.
