How long does it take to give birth to a second child using oxytocin?

Because everyone's physique is different, the situation during childbirth is also different. Generally, people will give birth 1-12 hours after the onset of abdominal pain. Some pregnant women with more difficult conditions need midwifery to give birth, such as injecting oxytocin. Below is a brief introduction about how long it will take to give birth to the second child after the labor-inducing injection.

How long will it take for the second pregnancy to be induced by the labor-inducing injection?

1. Generally, the doctor will recommend the use of dosed oxytocin to promote cervical perfection and trial delivery one week after the due date. If the pregnant woman does not give birth after 3 days of intravenous infusion of oxytocin, the trial delivery is unsuccessful and needs to be changed to caesarean section. If the first child is born naturally, then the second child should be born naturally without special reasons. Whether the delivery is successful depends on the fetus's tolerance to uterine contractions. If the fetus cannot tolerate the short-term lack of oxygen caused by uterine contractions, a caesarean section is required.

2. The labor-inducing injection promotes the dilation of the cervical canal, but the speed of dilation depends on one's sensitivity to the drug and the size of the cervix. If it is one finger dilated, it means that the cervix has not opened. Otherwise, there should be reasonable uterine contraction after two days of injection. But don't be impatient, as excessive uterine contraction is definitely not good for both adults and babies.

General methods of inducing labor

1. If there is no sound when the delivery date comes, the pregnant mother needs to increase her exercise. Standing exercise can promote the fetal head into the pelvis, and at the same time it can exercise the pelvic floor muscles and increase labor force. However, when going out for exercise, you need to find a "personal bodyguard" to prevent sudden "emergencies".

2. Walking is the most suitable form of exercise in the late pregnancy. Walking can breathe in fresh air. In the later stages of pregnancy, walking can help the fetus lower into the pelvis, relax the pelvic cruciate ligament, and prepare for delivery. When strolling, you should walk, massage, communicate with your child, and listen to the singing of birds and the buzzing of katydids with him.
