If there are six or seven contractions a night in late pregnancy, without lower abdominal pain, they are false contractions and are generally normal. If they occur in the early to mid-pregnancy, you need to rule out the possibility of pre-miscarriage.
False contractions are usually short-lived, weak, or limited to the lower abdomen or groin area. They stop after a few hours. They do not lead to opening of the cervix and descent of the fetal head. Therefore, they are not labor and are called false contractions.
It is a normal physiological phenomenon for a pregnant woman to have six or seven contractions a night in late pregnancy, usually due to the quiet, dark environment at night, when the secretion of the body’s oxytocin receptor will increase, thus causing frequent contractions at night.
If you have six or seven false contractions a night in early or mid-pregnancy, you need to exclude the possibility of pre-miscarriage and should go to the hospital in time to avoid delays.
If the contractions are at the time of labor and cause the opening of the cervix, consult a doctor in time and give targeted treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
