Introduction: Many pregnant mothers in order to avoid caesarean section being "cut a knife", and then choose to have a normal birth. But I didn't expect that the normal birth would actually experience the possibility of "scissors" below! And according to clinical studies, the proportion of women who need to undergo lateral incision or direct incision during vaginal delivery is relatively high, which is a very common situation of vaginal delivery!
Xiaoying, who is only 24 years old this year, has actively consulted various pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum recovery since her successful pregnancy last year. When she learned that a normal birth was beneficial to both postpartum recovery and the baby, she decided to raise the baby well during pregnancy and try not to experience a caesarean section.
But every time the mother-in-law saw that she rarely ate meat every meal, even the staple food was eaten very little, she hurriedly persuaded: "Xiao Ying, now you are two people eating, you don't eat more meat, where is the baby with enough nutrition?" "After several lobbies and several obstetric check-ups, the doctor said that the baby was not up to standard. In the end, I decided to follow my mother-in-law's advice and start a diet of big fish and meat.
Unexpectedly, during the 9th month of the obstetric examination, the doctor said that the baby's weight was somewhat beyond the standard, and the head circumference was relatively large. Although it can be delivered smoothly, it is expected to require lateral cutting. When hearing this conclusion, Xiaoying panicked: "Two months ago, I came to the obstetric examination and said that the baby's weight was not up to standard." Why is it exceeding the standard again? ”
After the doctor learned that her diet in the past two months was big fish and meat and various supplements, he said helplessly: "You are making a lot of supplements, isn't it normal for the fetus to be overweight?" Knowing that it was too late to regret it at this time, Xiaoying quickly asked the doctor: "If the side is cut, will the wound be difficult to heal?" Will there be sequelae? "Lateral incision is actually very common, as long as you do wound cleaning, do not pull the wound, not only heal quickly, but also do not leave sequelae," the doctor said very commonly.
In fact, mothers who have experienced a normal birth know that the lateral incision surgery of "scissors" is very common. However, there are still many pregnant mothers who have experienced childbirth for the first time because they do not understand this situation when they hear about this situation, and the words "lateral incision" and "surgery" have already made them deeply panicked, and they have chosen caesarean section for this reason. It can be seen that it is very necessary to understand "scissors"!
01. What is the "scissors" that worries pregnant mothers? It is not a condition that must be given to normal childbirth
According to big data surveys, more than 92% of women who choose to have a vaginal birth will develop spontaneous lacerations. It is usually caused by a tear that will occur at the anus. Therefore, doctors generally choose to perform lateral vaginal or straight incision surgery for women to prevent more severe tears and shorten the length of delivery. This is the familiar "scissors" that need to be experienced during normal childbirth.
This kind of surgery with small wounds will generally be performed by doctors when the maternal pain is at its peak to reduce the pain of the surgical process. Of course, although 92% of spontaneous lacerations occur during vaginal births, surveys have also shown that only close to 90% of women require lateral vaginal incision or orthotomy. In other words, not every pregnant woman will be "cut with a knife".
The reason why "scissors" are needed, on the one hand, is because the fetus has intrauterine distress or premature birth in the womb, and in order to reduce the compression of the fetus, it is necessary to speed up the delivery speed by lateral incision. There is also intrauterine growth retardation or excessive weight of the fetus, and the head circumference is too large.
02. How to avoid being "cut by a knife" during normal delivery? Pregnant mothers need to be aware of these matters
From the reason for the "scissors", it can be known that it has an impact on both the fetus and the mother.
The first is the fetus, generally in the case of regular pregnancy tests, if it is found that the fetus is slow or too well developed, it must be adjusted according to the doctor's instructions. If you try not to let the baby's weight development exceed 3 to 3.5 kg, ensure that the body size is not too large.
Secondly, during pregnancy, pregnant mothers should carry out appropriate exercise if they do not have special advice from doctors to ensure physical strength. Such as daily walks, yoga for pregnant women, etc. Of course, in addition to paying attention to exercise, the diet should also be balanced and reasonable. Do not make too much supplements but also can not diet, these will not only affect the health of the pregnant mother herself, but also cause abnormal fetal development.
Tips: Both pregnant mothers and mothers who have experienced "scissors" should understand postoperative care so as not to affect the length of wound healing or leave sequelae.
03, "scissors" nursing, mothers must know!
The reason why obstetricians and gynecologists regard the lateral incision or straight incision of the Y canal during normal labor as a common small surgery, in addition to its small wounds and short time consumption, is also very common, and most mothers who have experienced normal birth have experienced it.
First: keep the wound dry and hygienic
Generally, within 3 days after giving birth, Bao Mom will be admitted to the hospital, during which the hospital will take targeted cleaning measures. After being discharged from the hospital, the mothers need to do a good job of cleaning themselves.
If you wash the outer Y with warm water every day, the number of times is about 2 times. And during the period of lochia, hygienic products should be replaced in time to ensure the dryness of the vulva and wounds.
Second: Avoid tearing and oppression
Usually, the doctor will advise the mother not to do too physically demanding things for 1 month after giving birth, including lifting heavy weights. This will be easy to tear to the wound, not to mention, there is a chance of pelvic floor tissue damage, severe cases are likely to appear uterine prolapse in old age.
At the same time, we must also pay attention to not standing for a long time, which will compress the wound and affect the healing. Even if you sleep at night, try to use side lying on the side without perineal wounds.
Third: the diet is scientific and reasonable
Although it is said that the postpartum period enters an important confinement period, it is not advisable for women who have just experienced childbirth to make up for it immediately. The diet is still based on light and reasonable collocation. For example, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits in the season, lean meat, fish, eggs and so on that are rich in protein. Do not eat high-calorie, high-fat, spicy food.
Broken Thoughts:
Pregnant mothers do not have to worry too much, as long as they pay attention to giving birth at the right age, obstetric examination on time, scientific fetal raising, and postoperative care!
