39 Weeks Tight and hard stomach and back pain but no red seen It’s possible that you’re close to giving birth, or you may still have to wait a while before you go into labor. 39 weeks has almost reached the expected date of labor, which is supposed to be the time of labor. A pregnant woman with a tight, hard stomach and back pain is experiencing contractions, but if the contractions are only occasional, short-lived and of low intensity, they may be false contractions, and the woman may need to wait a while before she goes into labor. If the contractions are very frequent and regular, and last for a longer period of time, the intensity is also high, it may be about to give birth, and it does not necessarily have to be a sign of redness. At this time, the pregnant woman needs to consult a doctor in time to see if the cervix is dilated, and if it is dilated, the pregnant woman should be admitted to the hospital to wait for labor. If the cervix is dilated, the pregnant woman should be hospitalized. If there is any abnormality when she is approaching her due date, she needs to consult a doctor in time.
