What is the whole process of a woman giving birth?

The pain of giving birth is something a woman will never forget, and what she goes through during this time is only known to the pregnant woman herself. It requires a lot of preparation and mentality. Many men may not think it is a big deal, but if you see the whole process of a woman giving birth, you will feel sorry for your wife. So, what is the whole process of a woman giving birth? Let me introduce it to you below, and I hope you can have an understanding of it.

The first stage of a woman's childbirth process: At this time, there will be regular abdominal contractions. As the cervix opens, the pain lasts longer and longer, while the intervals become shorter and shorter.

Because the cervix opens slowly, the first stage of delivery is the most time-consuming, and it takes about 8-12 hours for a first-time mother to give birth.

When the cervical opening begins to dilate, the cervical wall becomes thinner at the same time. The egg membrane covering the fetus will peel off from the uterine wall near the internal opening of the uterus. At this time, there will be a small amount of bleeding, which is called "seeing blood". As time goes by, the contractions become more and more intense, the ovarian membrane will rupture, and the amniotic fluid will flow out, which is called "water breaking".

The first stage of the whole process of childbirth does not require special care. The mother should relax, talk to her family, eat something when the labor pains are not severe, and take a nap if she can. The most important thing is to conserve energy.

The second stage of labor begins when the cervix is ​​fully dilated (10 cm) until the baby is born. Usually, it takes 1-2 hours for a first-time mother to have labor pains, and the labor pains become more intense, from every 2-3 minutes to every one minute, and there will be a feeling of waves.

At this time, you should cooperate with the wave of contractions and push downwards with force as if you were having a bowel movement. The mother does not need to worry too much, let alone kick and scream. She should let nature take its course, be careful not to contract her feet, and not touch the disinfected parts of her body.

After the head is delivered, the baby's head begins to rotate clockwise. Then after a while, the right shoulder is delivered. At this time, the doctor will put his hands together and apply a little force on the mother's back to press the baby's head down, delivering the right shoulder first. Then, he will lift the baby's head upward (the mother's ventral side) to deliver the left shoulder. After the head is delivered, it only takes 2-3 minutes for the whole body of the fetus to be delivered. The mother suddenly feels relieved. Then, the doctor uses a straw to suck out the amniotic fluid and blood from the baby's nose and mouth. The baby's cry is the proof of his health.

After the baby is delivered, the uterus will become smaller and harder due to contraction. After 5-30 minutes, the placenta will be detached and delivered. There is no severe pain and it can be completed smoothly with just a little force. There will be bleeding during the delivery of the placenta, but it is only a small amount and there is no need to worry.

If the delivery process is not smooth, the doctor may consider performing an episiotomy, etc., which will require suturing and disinfection, so the mother needs to be patient.

After the baby is born, the doctor will cut the umbilical cord and clean its body. Then place the naked body under the mother's chest for early sucking.

After reading the whole process of childbirth narrated by a woman in the above article, you will know that childbirth is closely related to the health of both the baby and the pregnant woman. So if your lover has symptoms during pregnancy, you must take good care of her and take good care of her after giving birth. Thank you for the happiness it brings to you and your child.
