Brief Answer: NO HARMFUL EFFECT ON YELLING. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for writing to us on Healthcare Magic. Followings are my comments: 1) NO, yelling or loud noise DOESN'T cause any harmful effect to your unborn baby. Your baby is well protected inside the womb and habituated with different sounds in the body. However, regular shouting is NOT good for your health and vocal cords. 2) Baby moves in different time period like during sleeping or eating or household activity etc. You should count movements of your baby on regular basis - DFMC which will be more than 10 times in less than 2 hours. If fetal movements gradually decrease or you can't feel them for continuous 3 days, you must visit to your OBSTETRICIAN for overall check up and hearing fetal heart beat by stethoscope or fetoscope. Position of placenta (anterior) is also a cause of feeling less movements. 3) Mild white clots or substance is normal thing during pregnancy period. You shouldn't be worried unnecessarily. Just maintain genital hygiene. Hope, I have answered your query. Let me know, if you need further clarification. Wish your good health and successful motherhood. Regards, Dr Soumen For future query, you can directly approach me through WWW.WWWW.WW

Brief Answer: DETAILS ARE GIVEN BELOW. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for follow up query. 1) Mild to moderate occasional abdominal cramp is quite common throughout the pregnancy period. However, you should aware of the constant, rhythmic, regular uterine contraction or lower abdominal pain. These may be sign of preterm labor and you need urgent medical attention in such case. 2) Long time standing is not good for you with low placenta as gravitational force can cause unexpected vaginal bleeding or preterm labor. I would suggest to take adequate bed rest 10 to 12 hrs daily to avoid pregnancy related complication. 3) Slight yellow color urine is normal thing during pregnancy period and it occurs due to pelvic congestion. However, yellow vaginal discharge is not always normal thing. I suggest to consult with your OBSTETRICIAN for clinical examination. In the mean time, you would maintain your genital hygiene properly. Hope, I have guided you properly. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query. All the best and good luck. Regards, Dr Soumen

Brief Answer: FOLLOW THE GUIDELINE. CONSULT WITH YOUR DOCTOR. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for follow up query. 1) Mild to moderate occasional lower abdominal cramp or pain is quite common throughout the pregnancy period. It occurs due to uterine contraction (irregular one) and effect of Relaxin hormone. In my point of view, above clinical features are NOT suggestive of preterm labor if your cervix is closed by pelvic examination or ultrasound scan. 2) Preterm labor is associated with strong, constant, regular, rhythmic uterine contraction or lower abdominal pain with or without moderate watery discharge (leakage of amniotic fluid). It should be confirmed by your obstetrician through pelvic examination. Indigestion problem or constipation can also cause abdominal pain. Take easy digestible healthy diet with more vegetables and drink more water. 3) To avoid Preterm childbirth, you have to take adequate bed rest 10-12 hrs daily with left lateral position. You must AVOID strenuous activity, lifting heavy object, long journey, uneven surface, high heal shoe, sexual intercourse and more ups & downs. Do periodic check up to your doctor. As your all reports are normal, then you don't need to worry much. BP should be normal and checked periodically. You can take DROTIN-DS (Drotaverine) with RANTAC to reduce abdominal pain. Hope, it helps for your understanding. Let me know, if you need any clarification. Wish your good health and take care yourself. Regards, Dr Soumen
