What should I do if a woman has a difficult birth in ancient times? Scissors and rolling pins were put into battle, and all mothers cried
From ancient times to the present, a woman giving birth to a child is stepping on the ghost gate, which is a very dangerous thing.
In today's society, medicine has become very developed, so the safety of women giving birth to children has been guaranteed, and if the woman's physical condition and the child are relatively large, the hospital will directly choose to give the woman a caesarean section.
Caesarean section is to open the woman's abdomen and remove the child safely, ensuring the safety of both adults and parents.
But in ancient times, it was a terrible thing for women to give birth, because in ancient times, medical technology was not developed, and many women would bleed heavily when giving birth, but in the end, many chose to keep their children.
In ancient society, men were inferior to women, and the status of women was very low, and wealthy families could marry many women.
There will be a wife in the family, and the others will be concubines, but in ancient times, the status of concubines was very low, and favored concubines would be pampered for a period of time after they got married.
But if you want to have a dependent, you must have your own children, and in ancient times, the task of women was to pass on the lineage, and they would want to conceive children immediately after they got married.
In ancient times, Langzhong was not responsible for delivering children to women, and there would be some experienced midwives who were responsible for delivering women, but if the midwives were bleeding heavily during the delivery, the midwives had no choice.
At this time, the midwife will ask whether she wants to protect the adult or the child, but in ancient times, because women were defined as the tools of family inheritance, the family would regard the child as more important, so most people would choose to protect the child.
But because the woman has hemorrhage in childbirth, she has no strength to give birth to the child, so how can the midwife take the child out?
In many film and television dramas, when ancient women give birth to children, they will prepare scissors and hot water, scissors are very important tools when giving birth, and the scissors will be used to cut the umbilical cord.
After a woman has a hemorrhage, in order to ensure that the child can be born as soon as possible and avoid the lack of oxygen in the belly, the midwife will use scissors to cut open the woman's private parts.
At this time, because the mother has no strength, the midwife will directly reach into the woman's abdomen with her hand and take out the child after cutting the woman's private parts, but usually this situation has not taken into account the safety of the mother's life.
Because there were no aseptic measures in ancient times, when cutting with scissors, it will definitely be cut a little bigger than the child in the womb, and the mother will have heavy bleeding when she gives birth, and after being cut by scissors, the possibility of living is already very small.
However, experienced midwives have certain skills to ensure the safety of pregnant women during childbirth.
Many midwives have their own unique skills, and will give pregnant women some ancestral decoctions before delivery, which is to ensure that the mother has enough energy when she gives birth again.
In ancient times, it was a long process for women to give birth, and some pregnant women would go through two days and one night to give birth, and the long-term pain made the pregnant woman have no energy, so the midwife's decoction will play a very important role.
Nowadays, many women in medicine will have a lateral incision when giving birth to a child, which can ensure that the pregnant woman can give birth to the child smoothly, but now the lateral incision is carried out in a sterile space, and the pain suffered by the pregnant woman is relatively small.
However, the side cut has appeared in ancient times, and in ancient times, the wives of some large families would be carefully maintained after pregnancy, so the fetus would grow larger when it came to delivery.
When the wife of a large family gives birth, it will be very difficult to give birth because the child is too large, so the experienced midwife will use scissors to cut a little of the woman's private parts.
In this way, it is guaranteed that the pregnant woman will give birth to the child, and the safety of both the adult and the child will be guaranteed.
The midwife will also determine whether the baby in the womb is headed down based on the shape of the woman's belly, because the best way to give birth is to have the child head down.
But if it's not head-down, an experienced midwife will even twist the baby in a pregnant woman's womb.
There is also a more cruel act, if the child cannot be born, the midwife will use a rolling pin to press the woman's belly, the woman feels the severe pain, and the willpower will be clearer.
It is easier to give birth to a child after being pressed, but after this method is used, a woman's life also comes to an end.
But if you choose to protect the child, the midwife's practice is also very cruel, she will put her hand into the woman's abdomen, pull out the child, cut the child into pieces, and then take it out.
Although the safety of life is guaranteed, it is very difficult to get pregnant in the future because the infection is more serious.
The development of medicine has indeed saved the lives of countless women, but the status of women in ancient society was indeed very low, and pregnancy was a terrible thing.
