Reception of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the University Hospital Basel, Switzerland
In 2018, when I was pregnant and jumping, everything was free and healthy. Young and healthy, accompanied by baby daddy time and time again, all the way to the green light, each time it is like walking through a formality.
We chose the University Hospital basel in Switzerland, one of the best research and teaching public hospitals in Switzerland, and across the road from a children's hospital of the same class. Therefore, in all aspects, the medical level is the top insurance.
Swiss hospital obstetric examination, the doctor basically does not say what information, anyway, after each examination is: very good, no problem at all! So I was in the clouds every time, but anyway, the doctor said that there was no problem and thought it was no problem. It feels like a safe paddle all the way to production.
-------------//--------------
After 2020, the epidemic is difficult so far, and the hospital has been heavily guarded. From the beginning, the spouse cannot accompany him, and the children are not allowed to enter after that. Therefore, the whole examination process of this second child is that the baby father and the jumping baby drive me to the door every time, and then pick me up after the end.
The others are fine, the only regret is that at 20 weeks of pregnancy, the baby father can not see the important moment of B ultrasound checking the baby's gender. Of course, we also have a lot of friends who choose not to know the gender until the baby is born.
Now the situation is fine, during the hospitalization of Bao Ma, Bao Dad can accompany her, but any other extra people can not visit. So I can't be like in 2018, my in-laws accompanied me all the time, and I hired a photographer to take a picture of our big family.
But in May last year, when a friend was admitted to the hospital to give birth, Bao Dad could only be in the hospital when he was born, and he was not allowed to enter after that. This really affects the mother's already fragile depression under the influence of hormones.
------------------
First, let's talk about the obstetric examination environment.
Outpatient rooms and waiting areas for obstetrics and gynecology
The hospital gate came in on the right hand side, an automatic door opened and closed, and walked in was the undergraduate department of obstetrics and gynecology. Around the reception desk of the center, there is a circle of outpatient rooms and B ultrasound rooms.
After arriving at the appointment time, the front desk will be informed of which letter room to wait in front of.
The operating room in the production area is on the second and third floors.
Basic maternity check in Switzerland
The first obstetric examination, I must have felt that I was pregnant, and I had to make an appointment to check it out.
Call the hospital first and will arrange a visit for you, usually during the 8-12 weeks of pregnancy. Even if you check yourself out early to get pregnant and want to confirm it immediately, the hospital will not give you an appointment in advance.
This is followed by a variety of routine checks as in China. It's a regular once a month.
A urine test will be asked each time, and if there is any problem, the hospital will call you to let you know and send a letter to notify you. This is the process that requires additional checks. So as long as you don't receive a call from the hospital, everything is fine.
As if he had never seen his own laboratory and examination reports, the doctor simply told: everything is fine, no problem. I don't know what kind of strategy this is. Therefore, domestic moms compare data experience with each other, and Switzerland does not have it.
There will also be some university medical research projects that require volunteers, and the doctor will consult if you would like to participate. I will participate because Bao Dad is a research peer, and I know how rare it is to have the right volunteers.
Chinese and Western differentiation fetal protection thinking
I feel that before 20 weeks of pregnancy, Swiss doctors didn't care much about your pregnancy status... Whether it's good or not will not say much, and it will not tell you that there are signs of miscarriage to protect the fetus. Fully follow the natural law of survival of the fittest. This is completely different from our domestic concept.
Why do I have this idea? Because I had an unsaved child before I conceived this baby. It was only during the 20th week of the big birth check that I found that I had lost my heartbeat. After the baby came out, the small treasure that should have been 300 grams was only more than 100 grams, and the problem was that the placenta was insufficient, and the child's body did not find any problems. Later, we chose to do a medical autopsy to find pathology, and we didn't find anything.
First of all, the child can't keep up with the normal rhythm, which should be found at every obstetric examination, after all, the difference is too much.
Secondly, a week before this obstetric examination, I suddenly had bleeding, and the amount was fine, and I stopped lying down. I called the hospital and asked if I wanted to go to the emergency room, saying that I would observe at home. I was not at ease, and consulted my friend's mother (a retired doctor at Beijing Women's and Children's Hospital). The next day I decided to make an appointment with the emergency department, but the appointment time for me was three days later. And after arriving at the hospital, I listened to it and said that there was a heartbeat and let me go home. I highly suspect that there was something wrong with my heartbeat at that time?! Later, the doctor also said: it is too early, if it is slightly late, you can also consider early delivery.
Then there is the contrast, this time in the third trimester of pregnancy, I have some stomach pain, the same telephone emergency, the hospital immediately let me go to the examination, very cautious. Three doctors were present, and ultrasound B was examined.
Therefore, in the case that the baby can not leave the mother and has a probability of survival, the concept of the Swiss side is natural elimination.
It feels a little sad, but it makes sense to think intellectually.
Differentiation between China and the West is bit by bit
The experience of being called extra to do a drip in the third trimester
I really feel older and pregnant really isn't as good as ever. The body can feel the difference and discomfort.
The big problem is not bad, but several checks are deficient in vitamins, and they are prescribed extra medicines to take medicines.
Originally, after the last prenatal obstetric examination, I waited for the scheduled day to be admitted to the hospital. Switzerland is not like the country, the last month is to go once a week, here is still arranged on a monthly basis. But for some reason, I added an extra major obstetric examination and drew a lot of blood for examination. After that, I received another phone call and arranged for today's drip. There are still 10 days left before the production day I have arranged.
The doctor said that my blood test report was not ideal, and this drip was to prepare for a safe caesarean section later. Switzerland is really unusual to arrange a drip, experience once, feel particularly "grand".
Drip from the bed in the ward
I first met the doctor, told me what reactions might be there, and very formally signed a consent form with both sides written on it.
I took a dip and slept in a quiet two-person room. And blood pressure monitoring every five minutes. First of all, this needle is very scary, I don't know if it is because this agent has to go to the main artery? Boom boom boom boom boom boom In China, if you feel that you are seriously ill and hospitalized, you do not use this needle.
Blood pressure is monitored at all times
A nurse had a needle, and another stared at the nurse who was supervising the needle insertion. Then there was a more experienced nurse by my side, who came to check on the baby.
The needle operation nurse accompanied (watched) me for more than an hour, and asked me every few minutes what was uncomfortable, right? Dizziness? See if there are any adverse reactions to my arm.
I was tired of lying in one position and just bent my feet a little. The nurse immediately adjusted the pillow for me again, and then took the U-shaped pillow to raise it.
In the middle, he also brought me two bottles of water, one with gas and one without gas. Because my hands are not convenient, I still ask me from time to time if I want to drink.
Another bottle of mineral water was prepared for me
Drip for half an hour, and then half an hour is the waiting time for detection observation.
Operator station in the room
The supervising nurse also came to see my condition from time to time. At the end of the day, all three nurses were present again and gave me another injection.
Suddenly, it seemed that when I was injecting injections, there would be at least two nurses present, which was very cautious.
Half an hour passed, and the nurse helped me get up and sit. Wait another five minutes and your blood pressure will be measured 2 times. Ask me if I have dizziness, if everything is okay. This was the last time the needle was drawn, and finally the day's drip incident was completely over.
