Do I need to shave for a normal birth?

In the early stages of normal delivery, in addition to necessary nutritional supplements and maintaining a healthy body and a happy mood, expectant mothers must also make other necessary preparations. As we all know, before giving birth naturally, pregnant women will have their pubic hair removed and their private parts cleaned by nurses themselves, but many women still feel embarrassed and are unwilling to let others do it. I can't help wondering, is it necessary to shave pubic hair before giving birth?

The reason for "shaved hair" is that after shaving, it is easier for the doctor to disinfect and suture the wound of the pregnant woman during normal delivery. In addition, pubic hair is prone to breed bacteria, and the fetus may be infected by bacteria when passing through the perineum during normal delivery, thus causing disease. Therefore, compared to not shaving hair, shaving hair has certain benefits for both the mother and the fetus.

So can mothers not shave their hair during a normal birth? Of course they can, but generally nurses will help you shave. As long as you ask not to shave, they will not force you to shave. However, this means that the baby may be infected with bacteria during a normal birth, and some mothers may have episiotomy during a normal birth. If you don't shave, it will be more difficult to suture the wound, which means you will have to endure the pain for a longer time when suturing the wound!

Therefore, the editor still recommends that you shave your hair, which is beneficial to the health of the baby and the mother herself during normal delivery. If a woman feels embarrassed to have a nurse shave her hair in the hospital, she can choose to have someone close to her help her shave.

In fact, the various embarrassing things we said about entering the delivery room are just the feelings before we give birth. When we actually enter the delivery room, you may not feel embarrassed. At that time, all you have left is pain, and you just want to give birth to the baby as soon as possible. You don’t have time to be embarrassed at all.

Therefore, pregnant women should maintain a good attitude during pregnancy, do not worry about any special circumstances during delivery, let nature take its course, and once in the delivery room all we have to do is follow the doctor's instructions and help our baby come to this beautiful world as soon as possible.
