    Musculoskeletal disorders include lower-back pain, leg cramps, and hip pain. Pregnant women fall at a similar rate (27%) to women over age of 70 years (28%). Most of the falls (64%) occur during the second trimester. Additionally, two-thirds of falls are associated with walking on slippery floors, rushing, or carrying an object. [38]

    Retroverted uterus; Other names: Tipped uterus: A transvaginal ultrasound showing a retroverted uterus during pregnancy. The cervix lies posteriorly to the urinary bladder, and the uterus normally extends superiorly from it, but the direction of the body of the fetus reveals that the uterus extends backwards.

  4. Signs and symptoms of pregnancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Signs_and_symptoms_of_pregnancy

    During pregnancy, the enlarged abdomen and gravid uterus place additional strain on lumbar muscles and shift the pregnant woman's center of gravity. These postural compensations culminate in an increased load on both lumbar spinal musculature and the sacroiliac ligaments, manifesting as low back pain and/or pelvic girdle pain. [ 12 ]

  5. Obstetric ultrasonography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obstetric_ultrasonography

    The sex of the fetus may be discerned by ultrasound as early as 11 weeks' gestation. The accuracy is relatively imprecise when attempted early. [15] [16] [17] After 13 weeks' gestation, a high accuracy of between 99% and 100% is possible if the fetus does not display intersex external characteristics. [18]

  6. Female reproductive system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_reproductive_system

    The uterus or womb is the major female reproductive organ. The uterus provides mechanical protection, nutritional support, and waste removal for the developing embryo (weeks 1 to 8) and fetus (from week 9 until the delivery). In addition, contractions in the muscular wall of the uterus are important in pushing out the fetus at the time of birth.

  7. Uterine contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uterine_contraction

    In the early follicular phase, uterine contractions in the non-pregnant woman occur 1–2 times per minute and last 10–15 seconds with a low intensity of usually 30 mmHg or less. This sub-endometrial layer is rich in estrogen and progesterone receptors. [3] The frequency of contractions increases to 3–4 per minute towards ovulation.

  8. Blighted ovum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blighted_ovum

    A blighted ovum is a pregnancy in which the embryo is reabsorbed or never develops at all. [1] In a normal pregnancy, an embryo would be visible on an ultrasound by six weeks after the woman's last menstrual period. [2] Anembryonic gestation is one of the causes of miscarriage of a pregnancy and accounts for roughly half of first-trimester ...

  9. Cervical dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cervical_dilation

    The pain experienced during dilation is similar to that of menstruation (although markedly more intense), as period pains are thought to be due to the passing of endometrium through the cervix. Most of the pain during labor is caused by the uterus contracting to dilate the cervix.
