Being pregnant in October and giving birth in one day is the most anticipated moment for expectant mothers. Natural childbirth is very beneficial for the fetus, as the special touch of vaginal compression can bring a different feeling to the fetus. Moreover, natural childbirth is minimally invasive and allows for a better recovery. So, what should be paid attention to before production to ensure smooth delivery?
Many mothers nowadays choose natural childbirth, and the following points should be noted before vaginal delivery:
1. Regularly urinate: An swollen bladder can hinder fetal descent and uterine contractions. It is recommended to urinate actively every 2-4 hours while ensuring sufficient water intake.
2. Pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities: use the interval between contractions to rest and save energy, and avoid restlessness and energy consumption. If the fetal membrane is not ruptured, one can get out of bed and move around. Appropriate activity can promote uterine contractions, which is beneficial for fetal head descent.
3. Relaxation of mind and happy spirit: Nervous emotions can directly affect uterine contractions, reduce appetite, cause fatigue and fatigue, and affect the progress of labor. Doing deep, slow, and even abdominal breathing has great benefits, that is, taking a deep breath during each uterine contraction, gradually raising the abdomen, and slowly lowering it when exhaling, which can reduce pain.
4. Adopt the optimal position: Do not adopt a specific position unless deemed necessary by a doctor. As long as it can alleviate the pain, it is the best position.
5. Supplement nutrition and water: Try to eat high calorie foods, such as Congee, milk, eggs, etc., and drink more soup to ensure that you have enough energy to bear the burden of childbirth.
