Frequent false labor contractions may lead to premature birth. Generally, false contractions are a normal phenomenon occurring before the onset of true labor. The main manifestation of false contractions is abdominal pain, but the degree of pain is not severe. This pain is irregular, short in duration, and occurs at long intervals. Most pregnant women experience this sensation at night. It is important to go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible.
