The time it takes from regular contractions to the opening of the third finger varies greatly from individual to individual, ranging from 3 or 4 hours to 24 hours.
The period from the start of contractions to the opening of the third finger is a latent phase, and the length of time varies from person to person. Generally, it takes longer for primigravid women than for gravid women, and there are many factors affecting the duration of contractions that need to be observed.
The speed of the opening of the uterus is affected by the size of the fetus, the different times of delivery, and the speed of the descent of the head of the fetus, etc. At this time, you can carry out fetal heart rate monitoring and close observation of contractions, and make timely assessment.
During the period from contraction to the opening of the third finger, pregnant women should maintain a good attitude, actively cooperate with the doctor to understand the situation, reduce the pressure, and communicate with the doctor in time to take appropriate measures when problems arise.
