The spontaneous squeezing or tightening of the womb is an important part of birth.
CONTRACTIONS CAN begin as early as six months into a pregnancy. These early contractions are called Braxton Hicks, or practise contractions. Early labour contractions begin when progesterone levels suddenly drop. These contractions are mild and far apart. In established labour, contractions become stronger, painful and are closer together. Just before giving birth, contractions are described as expulsive. Finally, after the birth the womb stays contracted to prevent haemorrhaging.
