Pregnancy 39+2 with oxytocin after more than 5 hours feeling bloated and small tummy sore may be a precursor of labor and can be checked by a doctor to see if labor is imminent and to assess the condition of the fetus.
Sore little tummy, if it is paroxysmal, may mean that there are uterine contractions, and the pain may subsequently become more pronounced and shorter in intervals. Fetal heart monitoring and examination of the strength of uterine contractions will usually be done, and the doctor will adjust the dosage of oxytocics according to the situation at the right time, so pregnant women do not need to be overly nervous.
If the contractions are too strong or continue to be tense and unrelieved, it is necessary to discontinue the use of oxytocics, so as to avoid irregular and persistent contractions causing fetal hypoxia.
