Specific methods of correcting fetal position

I believe everyone knows the importance of fetal position. We recommend that pregnant friends go to the hospital for physical examinations on time. If the fetus is in an abnormal position, it must be taken seriously. Because abnormal fetal position can not only affect the development of the fetus but also the future birth of the fetus. So, if a pregnant woman finds that the fetus is in an abnormal position, how should she deal with it? Below we introduce the specific methods of correcting fetal position.

Methods for expectant mothers to help their babies return to their own positions

Expectant mothers can correct fetal malposition by using the knee-chest position. That is, the expectant mother lies on the bed with her face facing sideways, her wrists stretched forward, her knees separated, her chest and knees on the ground, and her buttocks lifted higher than her chest. In this way, the uterine cavity in the abdomen will be slightly deformed, and the fetus will move towards the bottom of the uterus. This action must be repeated several times. If this method of self-correction of the fetus is continued from the 28th week of pregnancy to around the 34th week, about 50% of the fetuses will be able to correct their fetal position on their own.

How doctors help expectant mothers correct fetal position

The doctor chooses the right time and can perform non-dangerous operations on the expectant mother's abdomen with the help of an ultrasound detector during the 29th to 34th week of pregnancy when the uterus is in a non-contracted state. When performing manual abdominal rotation of the fetal position, the doctor should not use brute force to twist the fetal position, which is quite dangerous. Instead, the doctor should gently touch the mother's abdomen with his hands, and after feeling the baby, slowly push the baby's head into the pelvic cavity, and then push the baby's buttocks up. The doctor should not use excessive force to operate, so as to achieve good results.
