Is Vaginal Pain During The Third Trimester Of Pregnancy A Sign Of Labor Contraction?

I am pregnant. I don't have any ultrasound. And based on my calculation from my last period, August 31st will be my due. Right now I am experiencing pain from my vagina, but my baby is moving very often inside. Some of the mommies that I have asked, if the baby don't move often it means it's about to come out. Do you think I am about to give birth anytime today or tomorrow?

Hi,

When you are in the third trimester & approaching the expected date of delivery, you should count the number of times your baby moves. When the baby is in distress the movement becomes fewer, you need to visit your gynecologist to check the FSH, fetal heart sounds.

Normal rate of FSH is 140/min, higher or lower rate needs medical attention. If you are getting pain in the vagina, watch for the 'show' or get admitted under a gynecologist if contractions/pain are frequent.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
