How to open the cervix faster if the cervix is ​​thick

There are two main methods of giving birth modernly: one is caesarean section and the other is traditional natural birth. Before giving birth naturally, pregnant women need to fully open the cervix of the uterus to make it easier to give birth to the baby. However, the thickness of the cervical os is different for everyone. Generally, it is relatively easy for people with thin cervical os to open their cervix, but for people with thick cervical os, it will open more slowly. So how can people with thick cervical os open their cervix faster?

1. How to make the cervix open faster if the cervix is ​​thick

1. When the cervix is ​​thick, the speed of cervical dilation will be relatively slower. However, there are many ways to speed up the dilation of the cervix. You can do some squatting exercises appropriately. When you are close to delivery and the amniotic fluid has not broken, you can do some exercises to promote the speed of cervical dilation, such as squatting up and down while holding the bed railing, standing up after squatting for a while, and then squatting again. In this way, the cervix will open quickly. Of course, you can also walk appropriately or climb stairs with the company of your family. When you feel pain, you should pay attention to rest for a while, and continue walking when it doesn’t hurt. These exercises can not only promote the speed of cervical dilation, but also help the descent of the fetal head.

2. Before giving birth, pregnant women should also try to take deep breaths, inhale slowly through the nose, and exhale slowly through the mouth, so that the oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body are maintained in a balanced state, focus on breathing control, transfer the pain, relax the muscles appropriately, and slowly relieve tension. These are all conducive to the opening of the cervix and also achieve the goal of the smooth birth of the newborn.

2. Methods to reduce labor pain and open the cervix quickly

1. After seeing blood, take a bath and stretch your body. Then go straight to the hospital for hospitalization. Generally, delivery will occur within 3 days at the latest after the onset of bleeding, so safety comes first. During this period, you should mainly eat easily digestible liquid food.

2. After the contractions begin, use a contraction timer to record the duration of each one. Do not shout or scream and waste your energy. When it doesn't hurt, close your eyes and rest. It's best to hold your husband's hand tightly, or ask your husband to gently massage your waist or back. This is a good placebo. The frequency of uterine contractions increases and the cervix dilates to two fingers, which means that delivery is imminent. Eating more chocolate, Red Bull, biscuits and the like can quickly replenish your energy.

3. When the contractions occur once a minute, remember to drink a large glass of 1:1 concentration honey water. It is said to be very helpful for opening the uterus. I drank it at the time and it did make me dilate faster. I don't know if it was the effect of the honey water, but there is no harm in trying it. Remember that mothers cannot drink honey water during the confinement period, and babies cannot drink honey water before one year old.
