Achieved a family of four

A diary of a normal birth of a boy weighing 7.2 pounds after a caesarean section for the first child

Preface: 2 and a half years after the first child was born by caesarean section, the scar thickness was 36mm, and the pregnancy was unexpected When I went to Xiaobao, my platelet count was 73. I was not given half anesthesia, but only local anesthesia (almost no anesthesia). I am highly myopic, so under a lot of pressure, I resolutely chose to give birth naturally.

The road to having a second child faced many challenges from the beginning. In November 2015, when I was most tired at work and after going on a diet to lose weight, I found out that I was unexpectedly pregnant. I originally planned to have a second child after Dabao turns 5 years old. , I felt that this was God’s arrangement, and after some psychological warfare, I decided to keep it.

The first challenge: It was more than 40 days ago. I went to the hospital for BC, but there was no fetal heartbeat, and I was in a bad mood. At that time, my mother said not to insist. After more than 50 days, again I went to do BC and finally got it. (I found out later that I am a late-developing type)

The second challenge: When I was almost 2 months pregnant, I was playing with Dabao on the bed, and he suddenly sat on my belly. I didn't feel anything at the time, but I had brown discharge the next day. I went to the hospital for a check-up and found out that I had a threatened miscarriage. I took Baonin and progesterone for one month, and finally it became normal!

The third challenge: I was found to have 94 platelets (normal 125-135) when I was 3 months pregnant. I was prescribed Xuening tablets and took countless boxes. I was finally admitted to the hospital with 73... Low platelets during pregnancy required local anesthesia. , my first pregnancy was by caesarean section, so I had to open it layer by layer according to the previous lines. I felt pain for more than 10 minutes, and it hurt just thinking about it, so I prepared to give birth naturally.

The fourth challenge: According to the normal pregnancy calculation, starting from 39 weeks when you go to the hospital for check-ups, the doctor will keep asking you to do cesarean section. I kept going until 42 weeks, which was really not easy. Especially the 40-week BC showed that the baby weighed 7.5 pounds and the amniotic fluid was 78mm. The doctor said it was not recommended to give birth because it was too big for fear of the uterus bursting. In order to strengthen my confidence, I went home and vigorously irrigated and exercised. The 41-week BC showed that the amniotic fluid was 132mm.

The fifth challenge: Although the internal examination showed that the pelvic condition was very good, the scarred uterus was a flaw, and my cervix was located posteriorly, making it difficult for the cervical canal to disappear. Since the first child was delivered by caesarean section, You can’t use any medicine for your second pregnancy, so you have to rely on yourself and your child. Moreover, I had to prepare both hands for a natural birth and caesarean section, and I couldn't eat, so I didn't eat chocolate or beef jerky before, so I relied entirely on my own physical strength. Well, in the face of challenges, my baby and I fought side by side, overcame many difficulties, and were able to meet each other...

Now I will talk about the natural birth process

My due date It was July 29th, BC on August 1st, everything was normal, the amniotic fluid was barely up to standard, and I was very excited when I saw red (bright red) on August 3rd. I went to the hospital for a check-up at 2 a.m. and found that the cervical canal had not softened. In the next few days, I had some false contractions (irregular and painless abdominal hardening) but no reaction at all. The midwife said that if you want to give birth naturally, you should climb the stairs. Before, I always walked 10,000 steps a day, practiced pregnancy yoga, and then climbed the stairs when I got home. I climbed 8 floors a day, with 13 steps on each floor.

Just when my family thought there was nothing going on and were planning to have a caesarean section after August 10th, what was exciting was that on the night of August 10th, I saw redness (reddish brown) and began to have contractions. (Slight pain, once every 5 minutes, lasting 30 seconds). I was preparing to be hospitalized on August 11. The midwife said that the cervical canal was flattened, but did not open the finger. I was afraid that the resident doctor would threaten me and ask me to have an cesarean section, so I wanted to go home and wait.

At 2 o'clock in the morning on August 12, the pain of uterine contractions was a little unbearable (one every 3 minutes, each lasting 30 seconds). I called my family and went to the hospital. After arriving at the hospital for internal examination, I started Pointed.

Then the doctor on duty asked about various situations. In the pain, I opened three fingers at 5 o'clock in the morning. The pain was so bad that I couldn't walk around, so I could only lie on the bed, dazed and in pain. I felt a little discouraged and thought about what else to do. The long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain and the peace of mind of having a cesarean section. Then I thought about working out straight away. I was in pain before, so I couldn’t bear the pain in vain.

I endured it until 8 o'clock, and the midwife told me to go to the delivery room and wait. My mother even cried, worrying about me and fearing that I would suffer twice. Seeing her crying, I was very calm. I went to the delivery room and opened 5 fingers, and then artificially broke the water, and soon all the fingers were opened. In order to stimulate me to exert force, the midwife used something similar to a ladle to help open the birth canal. She praised me and said that she wanted to give you some oxytocin. Seeing that you used force well, you can see results every time you force.

The final lateral incision was 3cm, and it took 1 hour and 40 minutes to finally give birth to the baby. He looked like me, which felt amazing. The baby looked like his father, and the baby looked like his mother. The baby's pear vortex was on the left, and the baby's pear vortex was on the left. The Baoli vortex is on the right, life feels perfect!

Postscript

Remind all expectant mothers who are preparing for normal delivery to pay attention

1. You must have firm beliefs and combine After analyzing your own conditions according to the doctor's advice, you can be brave and careful to finally determine whether you are suitable for vaginal delivery.

2. Exercise reasonably during pregnancy. You can choose jogging, walking and Pilates exercises for pregnant women, which can not only enhance your own physical fitness, but also make the fetus smarter and healthier.

3. Eat a reasonable diet and maintain your weight. Because I had to take supplements in the first three months and could not exercise, I gained weight quickly in the early stage. In the later stage, I did not eat at night and my weight increased more slowly, which caused the pregnancy to always* **I gained 30 pounds, don’t imitate me.

4. Expectant mothers who give birth naturally must discuss the circumstances of giving birth to themselves with their biological mothers. This is particularly hereditary. This is the most reliable and most similar example to your production.

5. If you want to calculate your accurate due date, you must calculate it according to BC. Everyone’s body is different, and BC is the most accurate. For example, according to the online software, it is July 29th. According to my third The final due date calculated from the fetal heart rate value of the second BC was August 6th.

Finally, I wish all mothers-to-be safe and healthy and give birth to cute and smart babies! #清风计划# #困 Zero Zero Plan# #Marriage Repair Treasure Book#
