The secret to a quick birth

After becoming pregnant, women have to consider whether they can give birth naturally. Natural birth is the best choice for the baby. In order to give birth naturally, pregnant women should also pay more attention to exercise, eat a scientific and reasonable diet, and learn more about the secrets of quick natural birth. In fact, in order to have a normal delivery, pregnant women must prepare early, arrange their time reasonably, do a certain amount of activities every day, and control their diet to avoid the birth of an oversized baby.

1. Control your diet

If the mother is overweight, it may cause excessive fat accumulation, affecting the progress of delivery, increasing the difficulty of delivery, and leading to prolonged delivery or caesarean section. The first key to controlling your weight is to start with your diet. Some people eat less in the early stages of pregnancy, so they don't pay much attention to anything. In the middle and late stages of pregnancy, because the baby's physical development requires more energy, the mother's appetite also improves. At this time, in addition to three main meals a day, you should add a meal in the morning and afternoon to ensure 350-450 grams of staple food per day.

2. Pregnant women yoga exercises + pelvic floor muscle training

1. Another secret to a natural birth is to exercise during pregnancy. You can sign up for a prenatal yoga class. Some mothers may worry that fitness will harm the fetus, but in fact, fitness for pregnant women is quite popular now. If the mother does not have the conditions or energy to find a professional fitness coach to guide her fitness during pregnancy, proper pelvic floor muscle training is still necessary.

2. The pelvic floor muscles need to be exercised every day, with 5 minutes of targeted exercises every day. Early pregnant mothers should first find the location of the pelvic floor muscles, then awaken the awareness of this area and do simple contraction and relaxation movements. Because the pelvic floor muscles are circular sphincters, they can be contracted and tightened, and a lifting effect can be added during practice. All of this requires conscious control, and it feels similar to lifting the anus. Once you find it, coordinate with your breathing. Mothers in the second trimester can contract and lift their pelvic floor muscles when exhaling, and relax them when inhaling. Mothers in the third trimester should do the opposite, tightening and lifting when inhaling, and relaxing when exhaling. One inhalation and one exhalation counts as a set. Practice once a day, 50-60 sets each time.

3. Learn maternal and child knowledge and do prenatal homework

Generally speaking, a normal labor process takes 12 to 16 hours. In other words, unless it is an emergency delivery, every woman must maintain sufficient physical strength to give birth smoothly. Many expectant mothers think that labor pains are very painful and they may not be able to bear them, but more often than not, it is because the delivery process is very physically demanding and they always feel that the end of delivery is "far away", which makes them more afraid of delivery. So pregnant mothers should not learn from the plots on TV. Try to conserve your energy for delivery and don’t waste it on screaming.
