What does it mean to induce labour?

Chuyên gia

Labor induction — also known as inducing labor — is the stimulation of uterine contractions during pregnancy before labor begins on its own to achieve a vaginal birth. A health care provider might recommend labor induction for various reasons, primarily when there's concern for a mother's health or a baby's health. One of the most important factors in predicting the likelihood of a successful labor induction is how soft and distended your cervix is.

Should I worry if Braxton Hicks contractions become more painful? What should I do? When should I call emergency?

Chuyên gia

As long as it's not early labour and the contractions doesn't increase in intensity and frequency (just dull ache), strictly speaking there's no need to worry because it's common. If you're worried or unsure, please see your gynae. One of the things the doctor may eventually even do is to assess that your cervix is not opening up by internal examination. If your cervix is opening up with mild contractions, this predicts that you may be going into labour soon. If you're not due yet (e.g 32 weeks), this could mean premature labour and early action can stop labour from progressing.

I feel like vomiting the whole day. If I eat anything I vomit it out and if I don't eat I feel hungry. I have tried juices also. Medicine suggested by my doctor is not working either. Is this normal?

Chuyên gia

You should see a doctor immediately as it is most likely Hyperemesis Gravidarum, which requires treatment to stay hydrated.
