How to quickly dilate during childbirth

How can pregnant women dilate their cervix faster during childbirth? Women will experience spotting before giving birth, but this does not mean they are about to give birth. Only when the cervix opens to a certain stage can they officially enter labor. So how can pregnant women dilate faster during childbirth?

1. Squat up and down

After the pregnant woman sees blood, if the amniotic fluid has not broken, she can do moderate exercise to promote the opening of the cervix. You can hold the embryo implantation rail and squat up and down, squat for a while, stand up and squat again, and it will pass quickly. You can also walk moderately or climb stairs with the company of a relative, rest when it hurts, and continue walking when it doesn't hurt. These exercises are beneficial to lowering the fetal head position and opening the cervix.

2. Maintain energy

Childbirth is a strenuous job. Uterine contraction and cervical opening are a natural physiological process. Pregnant women do not need to be too anxious. Just take things as they come, follow the doctor's instructions, and give birth calmly. Make good prenatal preparations, replenish energy, eat some light taste, easy to digest, energy-replenishing foods, such as meat porridge, noodle soup, birthday cake, milk, honey lemonade, chocolate, etc., to help delivery.

3. Release the stress mentality

After pregnant women see blood, they should stay calm, relax their emotions, avoid anxiety, and try to distract their attention. A very simple example is when you clench your fist, your palm becomes hard, and when you loosen your fist, your palm becomes loose. By the same token, if the mood is comfortable and the body is relaxed, the cervix will open easily.

4. Take a deep breath

When pregnant women are about to give birth, they can try to take a deep breath and focus on controlling their own breathing, thereby mitigating the pain, properly relaxing the muscles, overcoming tension, and pushing the cervix open, so as to speed up the delivery process and allow the baby to be born safely.

5. Emergency measures for pregnant women who suddenly give birth

Immediately call Dr. Zhong or have an ambulance rush to the scene.

Have the pregnant woman lie flat on her back on clean bedding with her knees bent and spread apart. Use chest shallow breathing to relieve abdominal pain.

The rescuer makes full preparation for delivering the baby. The thread used for ligating the fetal umbilical cord, the blade and scissors used for cutting the fetal umbilical cord are soaked in ethanol or pure grain wine for disinfection and sterilization. The rescuer washes his own hands and disinfects them with ethanol or white wine.

Instruct pregnant women to hold their breath during uterine contractions in the following ways: when uterine contractions occur, first breathe in deeply and hold your breath, then push down like having a bowel movement; in the late stage of uterine contractions, relax all the muscles of the body, rest quietly and conserve energy.

When uterine contractions become regular and strong, preparations for delivery should be made. First, use soapy water to clean and disinfect the pregnant woman's vulva and the front and upper third of the thigh root, and then rinse off the soapy water with cold water.

During delivery, the left hand protects the perineum, and the right hand gently expands the tire headrest to help the fetal head flex and slowly descend. After the fetus is delivered in the head position, use your right hand to squeeze downward from the root of the baby's nose to squeeze out the mucus and amniotic fluid from the nasal cavity. Then help the fetus' head to rotate outward so that the diameter of the fetus's backpack is consistent with the front-to-back and left-to-right diameters of the pelvic entrance. Use your right hand to gently relax the baby's neck and deliver the baby's front shoulder and back shoulder one after another. After the baby's backpack is delivered, use both hands to help the embryo and lower limbs to be delivered sideways.
