What should I do if I always have contractions in the sixth month of pregnancy? Contractions in the sixth month of pregnancy: first of all, you should keep your mood relaxed, try to rest in bed and reduce some unnecessary activities. Secondly, do not touch your belly too much, it will stimulate the uterus and the fetus in your belly, which will lead to more frequent contractions. You may want to change your position when you have contractions, usually resting on your left side may help. If the contractions are too frequent, you need to go to the hospital promptly and if necessary, you need to be hospitalized for observation and fetal preservation treatment. In addition, some pregnant women may have pseudo contractions due to prolonged sitting or standing, in which case they should not be overly worried and no special treatment is necessary.
