طلقات

Arabic to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Hi everyone,

I'm working on a Sudanese text. Here I'm not sure if this means contractions or shots? Or something else?

يريد الزواج بأخرى لأن ماريا أصبحت عجوز ولا تستطيع تحمل طلقات التوائم...

I get the general idea is she can't carry twins in her womb anymore, but what do the exact words mean?

Thank you!

labor pain

She can't bear labor pain for a twin.

Pain during labor is caused by contractions of the muscles of the uterus and by pressure on the cervix. This pain can be felt as strong cramping in the abdomen, groin, and back, as well as an achy feeling. Some women experience pain in their sides or thighs as well.
