What to pay attention to during a second cesarean section1

  Attention should be paid to early hospitalization for delivery during a second cesarean section. Due to the impact of the last cesarean section surgery, the mother's uterus has scars and the lower uterine muscle layer is thin. As pregnancy progresses, the pressure on the uterus also increases, which may lead to scars and muscle layer rupture, endangering the safety of the mother and fetus. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to early delivery or follow the doctor's advice to choose a surgical delivery date.

  In addition, due to the increased damage to the uterus caused by a second cesarean section, mothers may experience more intense pain. Therefore, it is important to avoid lying flat and adopt a lateral position after surgery to reduce wound pain. It is also important to consume nutritious foods such as dairy and meat to accelerate body recovery, but avoid overeating or eating too quickly to avoid discomfort in the gastrointestinal tract.

  In order to prevent the occurrence of intestinal adhesion and thrombosis, postpartum mothers should pay attention to early physical activity, turning over, and walking on the ground after a second cesarean section, which can help promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, facilitate early exhaust, and accelerate the recovery of the uterus. In addition, after a period of adjustment and rest, mothers should promptly go to the hospital for postpartum follow-up to better understand the recovery of wounds and their own health.
