Abdominal pain after childbirth

Abdominal pain after childbirth

Abdominal pain, anal pain, and vaginal pain are normal reactions after a normal birth. This is because the baby is too large and has been torn, so uterine contractions will inevitably cause pain. If the pain is unbearable after a normal birth, you can hang a pain relief stick. If the abdominal pain persists for a long time and is accompanied by a high fever, consider whether the abdominal pain is caused by infection. After a thorough examination, you can prescribe the right medicine.

How many days will my stomach hurt after giving birth?

Abdominal pain after childbirth is usually caused by uterine contractions. The pain usually lasts no more than a week. When it hurts, you can use your hands to massage your stomach from top to bottom to relieve the symptoms of stomach pain. If the abdominal pain lasts too long after a normal delivery, it is likely due to poor uterine contraction or infection. You can have an ultrasound examination. It may be caused by gastroenteritis or pelvic inflammation. If the pain is severe, you should see a doctor.

What are the advantages of natural childbirth?

1. Generally, mothers can get out of bed and walk around on the same day after normal delivery and can be discharged from the hospital within a week, thus reducing hospitalization expenses;

2. Postpartum recovery is also fast, you can eat immediately and breastfeed; the wound is only on the genitals, and there are basically no complications or very few;

3. The abdomen will not leave a wound like a caesarean section, and the recovery is fast. It can quickly return to its original flatness, and mothers do not have to worry about leaving a troublesome belly;

4. For babies, natural birth can exercise their lung function, better develop their nervous and sensory systems, and will not damage their nerves due to anesthetics.

There are many advantages to natural childbirth, but we also have to understand that natural childbirth also has disadvantages, namely prenatal labor pains, which make it very difficult for pregnant women to endure. At the same time, during normal delivery, damage to the vagina can cause infection, which seriously affects the health of the mother. At the same time, normal delivery also has certain risks for the fetus, so pregnant women should choose hospitals with high medical technology and doctors' qualifications to give birth.
