Are there any warning signs I should look for during week 34?

At 34 week of pregnancy the woman needs to look for warning signs that may signal a change in the health of the mother or the fetus. These warning signs may include:

• Headaches or spots before the eyes
• Epigastric pain
• Vaginal bleeding or discharge
• The onset of uterine contractions
• Painful or burning on urination
• Fever
• Vomiting
• A warm, hard area or pain in one leg
• Change in amount of fetal activity - either an increase or a decrease.

Anything that seems out of the ordinary or concerns the woman needs to be reported to the health care provider
