Women will experience uterine contractions when they are about to secrete. This is a very normal physiological phenomenon, which means that they are about to give birth. However, if the cervix is not open, or is not open enough, you will need to endure it for a while. Especially if you choose to give birth naturally, it is important to open the cervix as soon as possible. So, how can we speed up the opening of the cervix during contractions? Let’s take a look below. First of all, when pregnant mothers experience uterine contractions, one thing needs to be clear, that is, whether the contractions are real or false. Some women often feel their uterine contractions before giving birth, but this is not a precursor to delivery. Only with relatively regular uterine contractions can the fetus come out quickly to meet the mothers. Secondly, when the pregnant mother starts to have contractions, she can use a contraction timer to record the duration. It is a waste of energy to start shouting when contractions occur. If it does not hurt, she should close her eyes and rest for a short time. Women can ask their husbands to gently massage their waist and back, which is a good placebo for pregnant mothers who are about to give birth. Finally, if the pregnant mother's contractions become more frequent and the cervix is two fingers dilated, it means that delivery is approaching. If delivery is imminent, it is recommended that the pregnant mother eat something to replenish her physical strength, such as chocolate, biscuits and the like. This is especially important for mothers who are preparing for a natural birth. How to help relieve the pain of contractions 1. Transfer method Every expectant mother has to endure the pain of uterine contractions. Although the amount of pain that each person can endure is different, this process takes a relatively long time, and as the intensity of uterine contractions increases, the pain comes continuously, and the pain felt by the expectant mother becomes more and more severe. At this time, a joke or two will no longer work, because the pain of the expectant mother is too intense to even laugh. Prepare in Advance The expectant father may feel at a loss when watching his wife suffering from uterine contractions. He can ask his mother or mother-in-law for help. They have experience in childbirth and will tell you what his wife needs before delivery. If the expectant mother makes any requests, please try to meet them to help her relieve her tension. 2. Relaxation Only when expectant mothers learn to relax can they welcome the arrival of the baby smoothly. The intense pain caused by the intensive uterine contractions before delivery can make the expectant mother's body stiff. Uterine contractions before delivery usually last for 8 hours. If expectant mothers enter emergency preparedness state too early, it will easily consume physical strength and be detrimental to the smooth progress of delivery. This requires the expectant father to help his wife relax her body and give the expectant mother's tense muscles a rest. When contractions first occur, there is no need to rush to the hospital immediately. Staying at home for a while can make pregnant women feel better. Expectant fathers should pay attention to adding some support such as pillows and cushions to their wives' elbows, legs, lower back, neck, etc. when they are lying or sitting to reduce physical discomfort. At the same time, the expectant father should carefully observe whether his wife's body is in a relaxed state, and remind and encourage her to maintain a positive mood. |
