We all know that compared to caesarean section, the most difficult part of the vaginal birth is the pain to be experienced in the process, and for most pregnant women, especially the first time, they only know that the vaginal birth will be very painful, but they do not know what the main pain is. In fact, if you understand it in a targeted way, you will find that if you understand the main aspects of pain, and then consciously avoid it, in fact, you can reduce the pain to a certain extent.
01 Exercising throughout pregnancy, childbirth is easier than expected
Ms. Chen has always paid attention to health, and this is also true after pregnancy, her mother-in-law is a doctor in obstetrics and gynecology, and after Ms. Chen became pregnant, she told Ms. Chen to let her exercise more during pregnancy, so that it would be easier when she gave birth.
As a doctor in the obstetrics and gynecology department, she said so, and Ms. Chen naturally complied. So in the first trimester, I like to walk, and at this stage, I am worried that the fetus is not stable, so I dare not do anything more intense exercise. After entering the second trimester, Ms. Chen also found a professional institution to follow professional teachers to do some pregnant women's yoga, and insisted until the third trimester.
Wait until the day of the pot, a pregnant woman in the same ward, is also a newborn mother, the entire time to open the uterus took nearly 20 hours, but Ms. Chen because of pregnancy has been insisting on doing yoga for pregnant women, so the opening of the uterine mouth only took 10 hours, and in the process of vaginal delivery also played well, did not feel particularly painful, even she herself sighed, fortunately, during pregnancy to insist on doing yoga for so long, and it takes dozens of minutes a day, it is still worth it.
It can be seen that some habits during pregnancy can actually help alleviate the pain of vaginal delivery, so before that, let's first understand what pain experiences will be experienced in the end.
02 The pain of vaginal delivery is in three aspects, most women are stuck in the second level, and the most painful is also it
The pain of the first level of normal labor is mainly in the contraction stage, the pain at this stage is slowly strengthened, when the first three fingers are opened, the pain is still tolerable, but the more later, the pain will be more intense, many women are not willing to endure this pain, preferring to play oxytocin to speed up the process of opening the uterus, thinking that this can at least shorten the time of pain.
Compared with menstrual mothers, the pain experienced by first-time women will be more intense, and the pain will last longer, because their uterine opening has not been opened, so it will be opened for a longer time. Menstrual mothers are different, because they have experienced, so it is easier to open smoothly. The whole time spent on the opening of the uterus by the first mother is about 13 to 20 hours, which may be extended or shortened due to different personal constitutions, while the time spent on opening the uterine opening by the mother is about 8 to 10 hours, and may also be extended or shortened due to physical constitution and other factors.
The second kind of pain of vaginal delivery is mainly in the process of delivery, this process of the fetus in the birth canal wants to squeeze out, then the contraction pain is still continuing, and because the fetus enters the birth canal, the expansion of the birth canal, as well as the sprint to the vaginal opening, will produce a great sense of pulling, swelling, and will also bring great pain. These pain sensations peak when the fetus is about to rush out of the birth canal, and when the fetus is delivered, it will be much less, leaving only weak contractions pain.
Most of the mothers are also stuck in this second level, and some women still have difficult childbirth in this process, and in the end they can only choose the situation of smooth caesarean section, and the most painful stage is also this stage.
The third pain sensation of vaginal delivery is mainly to strip the placenta by hand, but this pain may not be experienced by every woman, and only some uterine conditions are relatively poor and sticky conditions may occur before the placenta needs to be peeled by hand. At this time, the doctor usually does a complete disinfection work, and then puts his hand into the mother's womb and peels off the placenta.
Many pregnant women think that they are almost numb at this stage, so they don't feel anything. Of course, some pregnant women think that the pain is still relatively strong, but compared to the large pain experienced before, they have established tolerance, so they will not feel particularly painful, but can bear it.
Of course, the main pain of vaginal delivery is concentrated in these three aspects, in addition, there are other aspects of pain, but relative to these pain sensations are nothing. It is also recommended here that pregnant mothers must pay attention to the formation of various living habits during pregnancy, such as sleep, exercise, diet and other aspects, as well as protect the "small house", so that the pain can be reduced to a large extent, and the probability of hand stripping of the placenta can also be reduced to a certain extent.
Conclusion: Here we also recommend pregnant mothers that if the doctor says that they meet the conditions for a normal birth, then it is best to choose a normal birth. Because a vaginal birth is not only beneficial to pregnant women, but also beneficial to the fetus, and caesarean section also requires pain in the postmenstrual period, and there is also a relatively large risk.
