Pregnant again 4 months after caesarean section

Every woman has a different physical condition after pregnancy, so some women give birth naturally, while others give birth by caesarean section. Generally speaking, even if you don’t have your period, you still need to take contraceptive measures during sex right after giving birth, especially for women who have had caesarean sections. If you don’t take contraceptive measures, it’s easy to get pregnant. What should you do if you get pregnant 4 months after a caesarean section?

1. After a caesarean section, the uterus will be scarred and it will take at least two to three years to fully recover. It is not recommended to have a second child in a hurry before recovery.

2. It has been just four months since you gave birth. It is not recommended that you continue to be pregnant this time. After the test shows that you are pregnant, you can go to the hospital for an ultrasound to check the size and position of the gestational sac, and then choose to have an abortion in time. This is also responsible for health.

Precautions after cesarean section

1. It is not advisable to lie flat: After the operation, the effect of the anesthetic disappears and the mother feels pain in the wound. The supine position is most sensitive to the pain of uterine contraction, so she should lie on her side with the body at an angle of 20-30 degrees to the bed, and put a quilt or blanket behind her to reduce the vibration and pulling pain of the incision when the body moves.

2. It is not advisable to lie still: After consciousness is restored after the operation, you should engage in limb activities. After 24 hours, you should practice turning over, sitting up, and getting out of bed and moving slowly. This can enhance gastrointestinal motility, expel gas as soon as possible, and prevent intestinal adhesion and thrombosis that may cause embolism in other parts of the body.

3. Do not eat too much: eating too much after cesarean section will cause abdominal distension and increased abdominal pressure, which will hinder recovery. Therefore, you should fast within 6 hours after surgery, and then gradually increase your food intake.

4. Timely bowel movements: After a caesarean section, due to the pain, the mother is afraid to exert force on the abdomen, and urination and defecation cannot be excreted in time, which can easily cause urinary retention and constipation. Therefore, the mother should urinate and defecate in time according to her usual habits after the operation.

5. Prevent colds: Colds and coughs can affect wound healing, and severe coughs can even cause wound tears. Pregnant women who have caught a cold should take medication promptly. In addition, make sure the abdominal incision and perineum are clean. Do not scratch when it itches, and do not scrub with unclean items.

A caesarean section is different from a natural birth. It will leave a scar on the uterus, which takes 2-3 years to recover before you can have a second child. Therefore, you cannot get pregnant four months after a caesarean section. You must go to the hospital for an abortion, otherwise it will be a huge trauma to the mother. In addition, you must pay attention to the care after the caesarean section and must not be careless, leaving a root of disease.
