A new little life will inevitably bring many changes to life. Preparing for a rainy day will make you more psychologically prepared when such problems arise, so as not to be in a hurry.
What preparations can I make before giving birth? Let me give you some advice:
* Store enough necessities.
Before the baby arrives, you never know how many diapers he will consume and how many wet tissues he will use in a day. Besides, you must not buy enough, because then the little guy will keep you busy. Therefore, be sure to prepare enough diapers, baby wipes and all necessary daily necessities before delivery. Don't forget to wash all the newly bought baby clothes.
* Prepare several pots of boiling water.
Not only can you replenish water at any time when you are busy taking care of your children all day, but you can also give your baby a warm milk bath when needed, without boiling water when needed.
* Nursery should have enough storage space.
Children's small clothes don't take up much space, but you will receive clothes of various sizes from friends. You need an extra wardrobe to store these clothes. With the rapid growth of children, you will find that clothes that are too big now may be just right after 2 months. Similarly, from cradle to crib, you should prepare quilts and sheets of various sizes and so on. Not to mention toys, their number will multiply. At this time, it would be great if there is a special space to put them.
* Choose a decoration theme that is easier to update.
Maybe you are satisfied with the beautifully decorated baby room, but you may not think that when the child can crawl and walk, your beautiful decorative cloth lace often leaves the child's dirty and sticky handprints, and as long as there is something hanging, he will remove it at any time. By the age of three, they begin to have their own ideas, which are often far from your choice. He will strongly demand that the walls of the room be changed into colors or pictures he likes.
* Choose the best washing machine and dryer you can afford.
Diapers, small clothes, small sheets ... you never know how many things need washing. If you can have a fully automatic washing machine with very good spin-drying effect to help you at this time, you can make time to have a rest and don't worry.
* The following details may help you get through the postpartum period smoothly:
* Adjust your psychological expectations: Don't imagine everything after childbirth to be perfect. So you won't be too depressed when you encounter problems.
* Reduce the number of guests: after delivery, especially in the second month, you only need to communicate with your family and a few close friends, so you don't have to take time off to entertain guests.
* Install an answering machine: record the news of the baby's birth on the telephone message, turn off the telephone ring when you are taking care of the baby or sleeping, and listen to the telephone message when it is convenient, so that those greeting calls don't have to be answered one by one.
* Let the Internet serve you: Now that the Internet is so developed, you can put your child's photos on the Internet, and then ask your husband to send you an email when he is free, so that friends can know about you and your baby online.
* Ask for help: How many people are not busy enough in a month? This is the experience of people who have experienced it. So don't be too strong. If your sister or mother-in-law asks you how they can help you, say what you need. Don't tell them to play with their children when you wash clothes. Maybe you can try the other way around and let them do your laundry. You can have a rest.
Take time to rest: If the baby falls asleep, you should stop thinking about the unwashed bowls in the sink and the clothes in the washing machine. Take some time to take a nap with your baby. Nothing is more important than your health.
* Remember, there is always a reason to cry: sometimes you may need someone to listen and release your stress and fatigue. There is nothing to be ashamed of. If you feel really unbearable and depressed, then cry!
long-term project/plan
If you plan to go back to work four months after giving birth, the best way for working mothers to succeed is to have a good ability to arrange their own time and ignore those who are skeptical and critical. If you work full-time, you'd better keep in touch with other friends in the same situation, listen to their opinions and opinions, and even complain about the same situation will become your greatest spiritual pillar. In addition, there are several points to consider before going to work:
* How to insist on breastfeeding?
What should the baby do with three meals a day after work? Do you have time to go home and nurse the baby? Maybe buying a breast pump and refrigerator can help you solve the problem: you can suck breast milk out of the company during the day and put it in a bottle and freeze it. When children need it, thaw it with warm water and heat it to eat.
* change to a position with time guarantee.
If you need to travel frequently or be on call, can you change your job for a year or two first? If you are in sales, can you adjust a position with relatively fixed working hours within the company?
* Ensure a solid reserve force.
Who will take care of your children at work? Can I ask for leave if my child is ill? Do you have time every time you get a vaccine or go to the hospital for routine examination? Both parents have the obligation to take this responsibility, but young couples with dual jobs still often need help.
* Which is more important, work or family?
On the one hand, they are busy at work, and on the other hand, they want to spend more time with their children. Many people are very busy. Think about what is most important. Think before you make a decision. Whether you are a child or a child, it is most important to be happy forever.
Calculate the economic account in advance
Money is the root of many contradictions, so it is best to reach an agreement on finance before the baby is born. When one party scrimps, only to find that the other party has spent a whole week on family expenses to buy a beautiful coat for the child, he will go crazy.
* Buy a mobile phone
Whether the mother-in-law or the little aunt is taking care of the children, you should make sure that they can find you anytime and anywhere. You can also learn about your child's situation anytime and anywhere.
* Keep in touch with the outside world.
If you plan to be a stay-at-home mom for a year or two, you must always keep in touch with your colleagues in the company. Sometimes an unexpected job opening is likely to make you make new choices.
Tip Don't be surprised.
When the newborn was still in the hospital, he was still a quiet little angel, but as soon as he got home from the hospital, he seemed to become a problem. Don't make a fuss, it's common. For example, he will become more alert and always sleep restlessly. This may be because the noise in the hospital will make him feel stressed, tired and calm. You may also find that his appetite is getting better and better, because a newborn needs a lot of nutrition a few days after birth. Anyway, don't be surprised when you get home because your child has become different. It is normal if the baby girl excretes some secretions, or if the baby boy's diaper turns yellow near the penis. This is because after the baby is born, it can't continue to absorb nutrients from the mother, which leads to a decline in hormone levels. If you want to know more, you can consult a pediatrician.

In labor, what should I take to the hospital?
In order to meet the delivery, you should be hospitalized for at least 3 days. Although three days is not a long time, you need a lot of things. Come on! Just prepare according to our tips!
√ CD/ book: a painful gap to divert your attention.
√ Camera/video camera: Recording the expectant mother's status at any time can not only preserve this important historical moment for a long time, but also facilitate anxious relatives and friends to know the expectant mother's labor situation at any time.
√ Cotton slippers (sports shoes): it is convenient to wear during childbirth and keep warm.
Paper underwear: the hospital can't wash clothes. Paper underwear can be discarded after use, which is very convenient.
Personal toiletries and tableware.
√ Nursing underwear: suitable for babies after birth.
√ Thick socks: help to keep warm.
√ Bath towel (if possible): Because it feels familiar, it will help you relax.

The parturient is eager for her husband's support.
At present, obstetricians in many hospitals have carried out the warm work of sharing rooms with mothers and babies. Pregnant women are allowed to wait by their husbands during childbirth, which undoubtedly gives great support to women and is the best comfort to women's psychology. Most women want their husbands to be with them during childbirth. The following are what many women expect from their husbands during childbirth:
-I hope my husband can wait by my side when I am in the delivery room; When I have labor pains, massage my waist and abdomen to help me overcome the pain of childbirth; Help me relax, rest, give me water to drink and eat, and save my strength when I am in labor pains; At the moment of my delivery, help me, encourage me, and cooperate with the doctor to make the baby deliver smoothly.
-When I saw that my husband, who can't even take care of himself, can now skillfully manage the housework, take the initiative to choose bottles and toys for the soon-to-be-born children and prepare their cribs, I have firmly believed that we can face what will happen calmly and greet the arrival of the little life with our love, like all parents in the world!
I know that the critical moment of my life is coming, and I have to face some things myself, but I hope my husband and family can give me some support and confidence.
If my husband can stand by me in my most difficult time and experience this special event with me, my heart will be full of love.
But if my husband can't stay with me for various reasons, I believe I have the courage to face everything in the future, because I am responsible for my children and I want to be a mother. But I still feel a little lost inside.
Husband's care and help is also a good medicine to promote mother's physical recovery and milk secretion.

Six taboos of parturient women
Avoid being overly nervous. Excessive mental stress increases the sensitivity of the whole body to external stimuli, and slight external stimuli can cause pain. Therefore, pregnant women should eliminate their worries and maintain a happy and relaxed mental state before giving birth. Although giving birth to a child is painful and dangerous, most of them are delivered naturally and few are difficult to deliver. Especially under modern conditions, the safety of childbirth is greatly improved. If pregnant women can seriously carry out prenatal examination and pay attention to health care during pregnancy, there will generally be no problem.
Second, avoid anxiety. Some women are impatient, eager to give birth as soon as possible before the expected date of delivery, even anxious after the expected date of delivery, and even abuse Chinese and western medicines. This kind of emotion will also have a negative impact on childbirth. If an activity period is advanced or wrong, it is normal that the expected date of delivery is ten days. But if you don't give birth after the expected date of delivery 10 days, please ask a doctor to find out the reason.
Three taboos are carelessness. A few parturients and families are careless, and there are not enough things at the end of pregnancy. When they are in labor, they are in a hurry and are prone to various accidents. A small number of pregnant women are approaching the expected date of delivery and have to go to different places by boat. Due to the turbulence and fatigue of the ship, they often give birth unexpectedly on the way, threatening the life safety of mother and son. Therefore, it is best for pregnant women not to go out casually when approaching the expected date of delivery.
Four bogey fatigue. Abundant energy is an important condition to ensure the smooth delivery of pregnant women. If you are mentally or physically exhausted before labor, it will definitely affect the smooth progress of production. Therefore, ten days before delivery, pregnant women must live a regular life, eat well and rest well, save your strength and wait for delivery.
Five bogey sadness and depression. Some pregnant women are in a bad mood and in a sad state before giving birth. This negative emotion also hinders the smooth delivery and should be avoided and eliminated. Some pregnant women's mental stress comes from their relatives-husbands or in-laws. They are eager for their children and grandchildren, which makes pregnant women form invisible pressure and heavy mental burden. Relatives should give pregnant women enough care and love, and don't exert all kinds of pressure, so as not to affect the smooth progress of production.
Six taboos ignore pregnancy care. Fetal delivery mainly depends on uterine contraction and abdominal pressure, which forces the fetus out of the uterus and consumes a lot of energy. If you don't eat well and sleep well before delivery, it is very unfavorable for production. Before labor, we must pay attention to nutrition, eat less and eat more, pay attention to replenish enough water, eat well and sleep well, and make our body full of vitality and energy, so as to complete the arduous task during labor; Near the delivery period, if you don't pay attention to urinating on time, urine staying in the bladder will lead to dysuria and urinary retention. Therefore, pregnant women should urinate every 2-3 hours before delivery. Stool should also be discharged at any time. Because the uterus, vagina and rectum are adjacent, if there is stool accumulation during delivery, it will not only affect the descent of fetal head, but also expel stool while forcibly delivering the fetus with contractions, resulting in vulva and fetal infection. Pay attention to cleaning vulva after defecation. After 7 months of pregnancy, try to reduce sexual life and avoid miscarriage. Avoid sexual intercourse near the expected date of delivery to avoid affecting the safety of the fetus or causing infection.

Gossip about childbirth
Sometimes the old man will warn you that if you raise your hand over your head, the baby in your belly will be entangled in the umbilical cord. Now it seems that this kind suggestion is obviously just a rumor at that time. Until now, there are still many absurd stories about childbirth that are believed by many expectant mothers. And these statements often lead to a lot of unnecessary tension or worry, adding a lot of extra pressure to childbirth.
Today, let's clear up these rumors related to childbirth.
Myth: "Once the water is broken, the fetus will be in a state of lack of oxygen and nutrition, so we should give birth to the child as soon as possible."
Fact: The main component of amniotic fluid is fetal urine. Of course, it contains very few minerals, rare elements and growth hormones. Its main function is to prevent the fetus from being hit by the outside world, to play the role of shock absorption, to maintain a constant temperature, and to protect the baby from temperature difference. It can be seen that amniotic fluid is not providing oxygen or nutrition to the fetus. Therefore, the outflow of amniotic fluid after breaking water does not mean that the channel for providing oxygen and nutrition to the fetus is interrupted. This statement of "lack of oxygen and nutrition" will only add a greater psychological burden to expectant mothers.
In fact, if the expectant mother is near the expected date of delivery, it may take her a day (sometimes even longer) to start contractions. Therefore, there is no need to rush to the hospital in a hurry. These expectant mothers may not need the help of oxytocin, and most will give birth within 24 hours.
If a pregnant woman breaks water at 35-37 weeks of pregnancy, the doctor will try to let the baby be born early. Although it is considered premature, at this time, the lungs of the fetus have matured and can survive smoothly after delivery. Because after amniotic membrane rupture, bacteria can easily enter the uterus from vagina, causing fetal infection, so delivery should be timely within 24 hours after water is broken. However, if the fetus is still too small, doctors will generally deal with it according to the number of weeks the expectant mother is pregnant. Generally speaking, if the fetus is less than 28 weeks old, the doctor will make a detailed examination and then decide whether to abort or terminate the pregnancy; If the fetus develops to 32 ~ 35 weeks, and everything is normal after examination, the doctor will generally adopt the method of miscarriage prevention: on the one hand, use some drugs to make the fetus's lungs more mature, and then prescribe some antibiotics to the expectant mother to prevent infection.
In a word, breaking water is not so terrible, but we must attach great importance to it, keep a cool head and go to the hospital in time.
Myth: "Natural childbirth will cause damage to the bladder, so you can't hold your urine after childbirth."
Fact: Someone may have told you that natural childbirth will cause damage to bladder muscles and ligaments, so that urinary incontinence will occur after delivery. The most common case of postpartum urinary incontinence is that as long as the abdomen is forced, such as coughing, laughing, and big waist and leg movements, it will leak urine. This situation does exist, but it can't be attributed to natural delivery.
What we call postpartum urinary incontinence is medically called stress urinary incontinence. During pregnancy, with the gradual growth of the fetus, the uterus expands and gains weight, which easily causes the muscle ligaments of the bladder neck and urethra to relax, thus changing the normal position of the bladder and urethra. In addition, after delivery, pelvic muscles and ligaments will be relatively relaxed, and the position of bladder and urethra will be relatively lowered. All these provide the possibility for urinary incontinence. However, this is only a short-term natural phenomenon after childbirth, and should not be regarded as a disadvantage of natural childbirth, so people are afraid of natural childbirth. As long as postpartum nursing is good, pelvic floor muscles are exercised correctly and scientifically in time to avoid premature weight bearing, this stress urinary incontinence caused by lying-in women can be cured.
If you think that you have had a caesarean section (that is, we often say caesarean section), you won't have such worries, then you should also understand that caesarean section is actually a risky operation, which has the risk of causing many complications, including the injury to the bladder at the incision.
Myth: "Let the doctor give you an injection of oxytocin, you can give birth faster and reduce the pain during contractions."
Fact: Oxytocin needle, which is commonly used by obstetricians, is mainly used to strengthen uterine contraction and enable the baby to be delivered. Whether or not to use oxytocin needle is not required by the mother or her family at will, but must be carefully evaluated by obstetricians, and a series of examinations and tests can be made for the mother and fetus before making a decision. For example, placental maturity, fetal size, amniotic fluid, maternal cervix and fetal delivery were examined by B-ultrasound. Oxytocin, if used correctly, can promote fertility. If used improperly, it will cause harm to pregnant women and fetuses, and even endanger life in serious cases. Therefore, the use of oxytocin must be cautious.
In addition, even if oxytocin is used, it does not mean that contractions and childbirth will begin immediately. It is often a few hours after oxytocin is used, and sometimes it is possible that oxytocin doesn't work at all. If there are no other dangerous situations, you can't give birth naturally after using oxytocin, and you can only solve it by cesarean section.
Therefore, the use of oxytocin does not seem to shorten the labor process, relieve pain and make normal delivery easier and smoother, as some people think. Unless it is an overdue pregnancy or other necessary circumstances, you should follow the doctor's arrangement to use oxytocin needles.
Myth: "You must eat chocolate to supplement your physical strength when you are in labor."
Fact: When waiting for delivery, pregnant women are encouraged to eat something, because the whole delivery process takes a long time, pregnant women have to endure pain, and if necessary, they have to cooperate with hard delivery, so their physical strength is very high. If you don't have enough physical strength, the hard work during childbirth will damage the maternal health. The reason why many people prefer chocolate is that chocolate can be absorbed by the human body in a short time and converted into a lot of heat. However, the food intake of pregnant women at this time still depends on their own tastes and habits. Some pregnant women eat chocolate, which will turn sour and aggravate the pain during childbirth, which is unnecessary. Easily digestible, low-fat liquids or soft foods like porridge and cakes are ok. Eggs, meat and other foods stay in the stomach for a long time, which is easy to cause stomach discomfort and even vomiting during the later delivery, so it is not suitable for eating. It should be noted that no matter what you eat, don't eat too much. At the same time pay attention to hydration.
Myth: "Prenatal enema is easy to cause postpartum constipation, and it is best not to enema."
Fact: Prenatal enema may delay postpartum defecation, but this is not enough to constitute a reason to refuse enema. The main function of enema is to prevent the puerpera from discharging feces to pollute the pudendal region during delivery, thus increasing the infection rate. However, enema has contraindications, such as premature rupture of membranes, vaginal bleeding, fetal head failure, abnormal fetal position, history of cesarean section, intense uterine contraction (estimated delivery within 1 hour), and severe heart disease. And such women are not suitable for enema. When giving birth, if the parturient without enema excretes feces, the midwife will clean it up quickly, which the expectant mother does not need to worry about. In addition, there are many reasons for postpartum constipation, such as great physical exertion during childbirth, fatigue and relaxation of abdominal muscles and pelvic floor muscles, and difficulty in exerting strength; Postpartum bed rest, less activity, and so on.
What other rumors about childbirth have you heard?
-"If the fetus is breech, you have to have a caesarean section."
Not necessarily. According to the size of the fetus, the way of presenting first and the size of the mother's pelvis, we should make a comprehensive judgment.
-"When the nipple is black during pregnancy, it means it is a boy."
The color of nipple is influenced by the changes of hormone secretion in the body. During pregnancy, progesterone and hormones that stimulate melanocytes in the body increase, leading to the color of some parts of the body surface that were originally heavily pigmented, such as nipples and genitals. It will recover quickly after giving birth to a child for a while. This phenomenon has nothing to do with the sex of the fetus.
-"Pregnant women with deep myopia are prone to retinal detachment during natural delivery."
In the second stage of labor, it is really necessary for the mother to cooperate with the doctor to hold her breath. As long as the method is proper, it will not cause retinal detachment. When the parturient enters the delivery room, tell the doctor about your eyesight and ask the doctor about the correct method of exertion.

7 questions you must know before delivery.
Maybe you don't think you need to know the process of childbirth so clearly. Midwives and doctors will know how to help you. However, I have learned from many experienced mothers that if you know what will happen to you in advance, you will be more calm and relaxed during childbirth, which is exactly what you need at the critical moment of childbirth.
The answers to the following 10 questions are what expectant mothers want to know most, and they will make you feel more secure during childbirth.
1. How do I know the delivery has started?
Some pregnant women will feel irritable on the day of delivery, which is a clear signal from the body. Some expectant mothers will have symptoms such as heartbeat, fever or headache. In addition, some people feel that they have no appetite or are particularly hungry, and may also have diarrhea or severe constipation. At this time, the uterine orifice began to open slowly, and more liquid flowed out, and the pelvis and lower abdomen began to have traction pain. A feeling of oppression in the vagina and bladder is also a signal that labor is about to begin.
When bleeding or amniotic fluid increases, it is time to go to the hospital, and then the pain begins to become regular. There is a golden rule that can help expectant mothers judge whether labor has started: this rule is 4: 1: 1. Specifically, there is pain every four minutes, and each pain lasts 1 minute. This rhythm of pain has been going on for an hour.
Another sign is that childbirth is about to begin, that is, the expectant mother begins to feel severe pain, and the intensity of the pain is unbearable.
There is also the simplest signal that the expectant mother thinks she will see the baby soon, so trust her intuition at this time! Delivery may start soon.
I'm worried that I can't be "competent" for the arduous task of childbirth. What should I do?
Fear of childbirth is very normal. Expectant mothers can calm themselves down by relaxing exercises in the preparation stage of delivery. Here are some details related to childbirth, which are very helpful to overcome fear:
* The pain before delivery is getting worse gradually, not suddenly, and expectant mothers can adapt slowly.
* There is a pause between pains, when the expectant mother has no pain (except the last stage of delivery), so you can take advantage of this pause to have a good rest.
* In addition, there is a time limit for labor pains. Every pain means that the baby is one step closer to birth. When the baby lies in your arms, the pain really ends.
Many studies have shown that women's sensitivity to pain will continue to decline during the period from 20 weeks of pregnancy to delivery. The reason is that the human body secretes a narcotic hormone similar to opium. Successful delivery doesn't mean that you have to endure severe pain. There are many methods and drugs to relieve pain, such as acupuncture, breathing, painkillers and local anesthesia.
3. How long does it take to give birth?
Statistics show that it takes an average of 12 hours for a woman to give birth to her first child and 8.5 hours for a second child. But this does not mean that women have to endure more than 10 hours of uninterrupted pain. Everyone's situation is different. Generally speaking, in a familiar environment, with the company of trusted people, childbirth will be faster.
Some expectant mothers have shorter labor pains, but the intensity of labor pains is higher. Some expectant mothers have softer labor pains, but they need more time to complete the labor pains. Therefore, expectant mothers should let nature take its course and never have pressure.
How long you are born varies from person to person and can be inherited. So, you might as well ask your mother about her childbirth experience. You can also learn about your menstruation and grandma's delivery process, which will help you to some extent.
Your sensitivity to labor pains has little to do with the length of labor, but you can firmly believe that when the baby cries for the first time, everything is over.
4. Who should be with you during childbirth?
There are many choices. Some people think it should be the father of the baby. Because the baby's father is with you, you can go through the delivery process together. However, there are also some prospective fathers who can't bear such a scene. It is best to arrange them to wait outside the delivery room.
Some people think we should find some female relatives or friends who have had childbearing experience to accompany us. Because they have experienced this process, they will give you some useful help and will not be too nervous.
In addition, you can also choose the professional music guidance service provided by the hospital. These music directors are experienced medical staff or midwives. They brought a sense of security to the parturient, shortened the delivery process (according to statistics, it was shortened by an average of two hours in the first delivery), and they also liberated the "incompetent" father. With their guidance, your delivery will be smoother! Of course, there is an extra charge for this service.
In the process of caesarean section, if paternity is allowed, prospective fathers should choose to be as close as possible to the expectant mother, even if they don't stand directly in front of the delivery bed, they should choose a place where the expectant mother can see it, which is very helpful to aim at the mother's mood.
5. What should I do if the delivery encounters stagnation?
Delivery can be "restarted" by adjusting breathing, relaxation and activities accordingly. This "intermission" is very beneficial, because we know that labor pains are very hard, so women need time to recover briefly.
Can you fall asleep in labor pains? Almost unimaginable, but 1/5 women did it during the labor pains. Painkillers can also promote sleep. In labor pains, expectant mothers don't have to endure all the pain, but can accept some drugs or methods to relieve the pain and make themselves feel better.
Breathing, relaxation and exercise all help to get through the pain smoothly. For example, when the uterus is open, the expectant mother can sit on the fitness ball and bend back to make breathing easier, and the midwife or prospective father can sit behind and hold it. This exercise is very simple, and any parturient can use it during childbirth without studying in advance. Moreover, this kind of exercise not only helps to relieve pain, but also helps the baby to accelerate the downward "health" such as pelvis.
6. The amniotic fluid is broken. Should I go to the hospital at once?
Many women are thinking about what to do with amniotic fluid loss before delivery throughout pregnancy. In fact, amniotic fluid diarrhea is rare when water is broken, so don't worry too much. In addition, you can rest assured that obstetricians and gynecologists will check whether the fetal head has entered the pelvis before the expected date of delivery. When the baby's small head has entered the birth canal, the amniotic sac ruptures and amniotic fluid flows into the birth canal, it is time to go to the hospital. If the water is broken too early, it will be more dangerous if the fetus has not entered the position of preparing for delivery many days before the expected date of delivery. Because at this time, the umbilical cord will slide to the vagina before the baby, and the fetal head behind will press the umbilical cord and hinder blood flow. Therefore, at this time, the parturient should be sent to the hospital to ensure that the umbilical cord is not oppressed and the supply to the fetus can continue.
7. Can I control the delivery process with oxytocin needles?
If there is no progress in labor, you can consider using oxytocin needles to speed up the labor pains. Another situation that requires oxytocin is that the labor is normal at first, but the labor pains suddenly disappear, or the labor pains are slow and weak, so it is necessary to promote the labor by intravenous injection of oxytocin needle.
The speed of intravenous injection should be strictly controlled so that the parturient will not feel out of control. If the frequency of labor pains is too high, it is necessary to slow down or even stop dripping, so that the interval between labor pains will become longer. Expectant mothers should communicate with the nurses in the delivery room in time according to their physical conditions, reminding them to pay attention to the reaction of expectant mothers to oxytocin needles.
I hope the above can help you a little!
