Which is the most difficult during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding?

Giving birth to a child is a very happy thing. I believe this is something that every woman will never forget. Why is it unforgettable? One is of course the innate feeling of motherhood in women. After all, during the process of pregnancy, they gain a lot while giving. The other reason is naturally because they have experienced too many difficult things during the entire pregnancy, delivery, and lactation period. , which made me unforgettable.

Let’s talk about the difficult things you will encounter during pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding.

In fact, not every woman who gives birth will encounter difficult moments. Some mothers pass the pregnancy easily and give birth to the baby easily. Unknowingly, the baby When growing up, on the contrary, most mothers will go through varying degrees of suffering to get through these three periods. Let us break down what needs to be "suffered" in these three periods. Pregnancy

There are ten months in pregnancy. During the entire pregnancy, due to hormonal changes, pregnant mothers will experience various similar or different things. However, lazy mothers feel that the following All of them will be difficult to "get over":

1. Morning sickness?

Morning sickness is a very common symptom of pregnant women. About 80% of pregnant women will experience it during pregnancy. Of course, morning sickness The degree of vomiting varies from mild to severe. Some pregnant mothers only vomit slightly, and some pregnant mothers will vomit all kinds of meat and vegetables, making it so painful that they doubt their life.

Morning sickness lasts for a long time. Generally speaking, after the first trimester is over, many pregnant women's morning sickness will be relieved. Some pregnant mothers will continue to vomit until delivery.

For those who don’t know what morning sickness feels like, those who experience motion sickness can imagine that when they are motion sick, they have to endure these discomforts, force themselves to eat, and persist for a month or two, or even longer. time.

2. Pubic pain/sciatica

Many pregnant mothers will find this pain or that pain in the third trimester of pregnancy. Pubic pain or sciatica are both relatively painful and difficult to endure. kind.

When the pain occurs, normal standing, walking, getting in and out of bed, and even normal walking will be affected.

And it is really painful. It hurts every time you move. It may hurt for a week or two, maybe a month or two, or maybe half a year...

When you see a Pregnant mothers walk like a penguin and walk very slowly. This is not necessarily because the belly is too big, but it may also be because of pubic bone pain.

But pregnant mothers don’t need to be too afraid. Pubic pain is not a standard symptom for pregnant women, and many pregnant mothers don’t feel anything at all.

3. Frequent urination and constipation

In the early and late pregnancy, pregnant mothers are prone to frequent urination and constipation. Frequent going to the toilet can greatly affect the sleep of pregnant mothers and constipation. In severe cases, it can also make pregnant mothers miserable.

Because there is no normal defecation, pregnant mothers often feel uncomfortable in their stomachs, and they dare not exert force for fear of accidentally bringing out the baby. In short, anyone who has tried it will understand.

Compared with the above, pregnant mothers actually have the greatest psychological pressure. They are always worried about miscarriage, malformation, premature birth, etc. They have to worry if there is too much fetal movement, and they have to worry if there is less fetal movement. As long as the baby A day before birth can lead to constant worry.

And because every pregnant woman’s situation is different, many pregnant mothers will also experience other conditions during pregnancy, such as urinary leakage, headaches, etc. During childbirth

You may have heard from other people, TV dramas or news that a pregnant woman gave birth to her baby without knowing it. It seemed so simple and easy. No pain at all.

In fact, there are too few people who have no pain in giving birth. Even from the moment pre-delivery symptoms appear, pregnant women have to go through a series of sufferings before they can successfully meet their babies.

1. All kinds of pain

How can giving birth not be painful? Whether it is a natural birth or a caesarean section, mothers will experience some pain to a greater or lesser extent.

? Natural birth mothers

Natural birth mothers need to go through labor pains of about ten or twenty hours before they can enter the delivery room and wait for the baby to come out. Labor pain is the highest level of pain in medicine, and you can do it on your own Think about it.

During the delivery process, it may also require side incision, natural tearing, manual removal of the fetal basin, wound suturing, etc. Any of these would be unbearable and no one would want to try it again. .

?Caesarean section mothers

The pain of natural labor is before delivery, and the pain of caesarean section is after delivery. After caesarean section, the mother may turn over, get out of bed, press her belly, or have postpartum uterine contractions. It can "make up for" the pain caused by not giving birth naturally.

Fortunately, now there are pain relief methods for both vaginal delivery and caesarean section. Women who are afraid of pain can use them, and they can generally relieve most of the pain.

2. Mental suffering

? Mothers who give birth naturally

From the time when the mother sees redness or water breaks to the birth of the baby, this process not only causes pain, but also causes It saves the mother endless suffering, because every minute is very sad, and she especially hopes that the baby can come out soon.

But the entire process of normal delivery may only take seven or eight hours, and more may take more than twenty hours. While waiting for the cervix to expand, it can be said that every minute and every second, especially every After an internal examination, the cervix was the same size as the last examination, which was very painful for the mother.

It was obvious that the pain was excruciating, but the doctor said to wait a little longer and not go to the delivery bed yet. Every time I heard this sentence, I wanted to "get a knife" quickly and end the process as soon as possible.

?Caesarean section mothers

Relatively speaking, the emotional journey of caesarean section mothers is not so complicated. If you have a better mentality, you only need to make an appointment and go to the hospital in advance to wait for delivery.

But there are also some mothers who are more nervous. When the time has not arrived, they look forward to it coming soon. When the time does come, they are extremely afraid. They are always worried about this and that. After all, there are certain risks to caesarean section. risk.

3. Embarrassment

No matter which method you choose when giving birth to a baby, embarrassment is inevitable.

? Embarrassing moments for mothers who gave birth

① Internal examination: That is, the doctor uses his hands to check the position of the cervix to understand the position of the fetal head, the size of the cervix, etc. Condition.

②Skin preparation: It involves shaving off and disinfecting the hair around the delivery site.

③ Incontinence during delivery: Due to the compression of the fetus, the mother may accidentally defecate and urinate during delivery.

? The embarrassing moment of a caesarean section mother

① Skin preparation: Although the location of the operation is the abdomen, skin preparation is also required.

②Change into surgical clothes: Before entering the operating room, the mother needs to change into sterile surgical clothes and then enter the operating room. It is said that some hospitals do not even put on clothes during surgery. You can imagine how embarrassing it is.

③ There may be male doctors in the operating room: when we perform laparotomy, there cannot be only one doctor. There will also be other medical staff, such as anesthesiologists. Among these people, it is very likely that There are male doctors.

In general, whether it is a natural birth or a caesarean section, giving birth to a baby is not an easy task. Breastfeeding

Don’t think that the task is completed after the baby is born. If you are breastfeeding, there are still a lot of things that may happen.

1. Breast enlargement

Some mothers will have breast enlargement due to blocked milk passage or excessive milk, causing milk to stay in the R room. Due to untimely treatment or lack of experience, the milk will remain. My breasts were producing more and more milk, and my breasts were getting harder and more painful.

It will hurt when the baby is not feeding, and it will be even more painful when feeding. In severe cases, it can lead to rheumatoid arthritis, which really hurts to different levels.

2. Cracked head

It is common for breastfeeding mothers to encounter chapped head. No matter what the cause is, it still hurts. It is already very painful, but it still hurts. Enduring the pain to feed the baby, it is really sad and full of tears.

3. Endless night milk

Many babies don’t know whether they have discussed it before, but they especially like to have night milk. Two or three times a night are not enough. There are also 5-6 babies. Some mothers even said that they couldn’t count how many times they had. Anyway, they just fed them again in a daze.

The most egregious thing is that many times the baby is not hungry at all, but just wants to eat a few bites when he wakes up, but will not give up if he can't eat.

The most direct impact is that the mother cannot get a good night's sleep at all. She is always sleep-deprived and can fall asleep standing up.

My friend’s baby is over one year old and needs night feeding two or three times a day. She complains every day that she hasn’t had a full night’s sleep since the baby was born. Since the baby was weaned, the baby slept until dawn, which was not very pleasant.

4. Purchasing milk

Due to various reasons, some mothers will experience insufficient breast milk. If they want to provide enough milk for their babies, mothers need to pursue milk.

Not every mother can find it easy to chase milk. During the process of chasing milk, she needs to feed her baby continuously, maybe once every two hours, maybe once an hour, and maybe half a day. Once every hour, in short, we must be there whenever we are asked, no matter day or night. It would be a lie to say that it is not hard work.

The lazy mother used the above method to recover milk because she had a postpartum fever. Fortunately, she was relatively lucky and recovered her milk after a week. But I have to say that being pregnant is really hard.

My friend was not so lucky. She had insufficient milk supply and insufficient executive power. When chasing milk, she only indulged in food to stimulate lactation, but the frequency of breastfeeding could not keep up. As a result, her milk supply did not increase and she gained weight. few.

So, although pregnancy is difficult, giving birth to a baby is not necessarily easy. After the baby is born, there will be different tedious things, big and small. Each has its own difficulties. I can’t say which one is better or which one is more difficult. not good.
