How to urinate after the urethra is removed in women

Compared with choosing natural birth, the only advantage of cesarean section is that the process is relatively stress-free and comfortable. After taking local anesthetics, you just need to wait for surgery to take out the baby. There is no need to wait for the bone suture to be opened, and there is no need to endure more than ten hours of pain. However, problems arise one after another after the operation. One of the problems that makes mothers more depressed and headache is how to urinate after the catheter is removed? Talking about this issue may make many mothers feel guilty, but this is a critical stage in caesarean section. Today we will discuss the issue of urination after removing the catheter.

We all know that cesarean section uses anesthesia to block the nerves below the waist. A catheter must be connected before the operation and the catheter must be removed 24 hours after the operation. At this time, medical staff will ask mothers to drink more water. If you feel the urge to urinate, do not hold it. The sooner you go to the bathroom to urinate, the easier it is. However, many mothers still suffer from urinary incontinence. Looking at the narration of new mothers, do many mothers have deep feelings?

Little New Mom: Hello everyone! I am a mother who had a caesarean section. During the process, except for the catheterization and the slight pain of anesthesia, all other processes were very smooth. When you think the caesarean section is ready, the bladder gets stuck during the urination stage. I held my urine three times in total and drank four or five cups of water during the process, but I just couldn't urinate. The last time I went to the bathroom, the nanny came in and turned on the tap, but it still didn't work. The wound and bladder hurt so much that I didn't want to get up. Finally, there was no other way. My husband went to call the doctor and inserted the catheter again. What should I do?

Why does removing the urinary catheter cause problems with urination?

Many mothers encounter similar problems as new mothers. This is because anesthetics can cause obstruction of the activity of the urinary nerve center and inhibit the urination reflex. The catheter changes the patient's urination method and may cause urination difficulty. However, there is no need to be overly concerned about these problems. If there is no organic problem with the bladder and urethra, urination difficulty can be divided into three reasons.

A small part of the reason is that the anesthesia is relatively deep, causing the anesthetic to affect urination.

Another reason is psychological problems. When mothers cannot urinate for the first time, they will feel extremely depressed and anxious. This invisible pressure will affect the relaxation and contraction of the vulva muscles and bladder expansion. Therefore, you should try to relax and don't have a negative attitude. Believe that you can urinate successfully. In addition, urination is also affected by the environment. Generally speaking, if the hospital has a professional single room, the mother can go in to urinate, but if it is a public toilet, with many people coming in and out continuously, the mother will always be in a restless state and cannot concentrate on urinating, which is also the reason for poor urination. Some mothers are deeply affected by self-suggestion, so many mothers use the method of turning on the tap to promote urination. This is the same principle as the mother "pees" on the side when the baby urinates.
