The reason why many women are very afraid of pregnancy and childbirth is that they are likely to leave "wounds" on their bodies. Whether it is abdominal or perineal wounds, it not only brings ugly scars to "mothers", but also inconveniences in daily life (including difficulty in sexual intercourse after episiotomy) ... and it may also leave new hidden dangers (for example, abdominal endometriosis is a "hidden worry" closely related to caesarean section).
Methods to prevent wounds: In fact, the "conditions" of most surgical midwifery are not immutable "inevitability"! For example, you can avoid the "extra" troubles caused by other problems (such as high blood pressure) combined with pregnancy through good "preparation" before pregnancy; Through optimized nutrition allocation, the level and speed of weight gain during pregnancy can be controlled, and some pregnancy complications (such as gestational diabetes mellitus) can be treated in time to obtain suitable weight for the baby during delivery. You can also make vaginal delivery easier through regular physical exercise, especially conscious "training" of pelvic floor muscles and regular and appropriate perineal massage. ..。 .. these can greatly reduce the possibility that you need all kinds of surgical AIDS during childbirth, and truly realize "natural" childbirth!
Injury 2: "Sexy" no longer?
Many mothers regard postpartum hemorrhoids, vaginal relaxation, even uterine or bladder prolapse, urinary incontinence and other problems as "inevitable" results that accompany childbirth, and have to reluctantly accept that motherhood is at the expense of women's "sexiness". Is this a fact?
The secret of keeping sexy: It is true that many physiological changes brought by pregnancy to women, such as: the enlarged uterus compresses pelvic blood vessels, causing more blood retention and hemorrhoid blood vessel proliferation, and the relaxation of pelvic ligament under the continuous action of progesterone, will all lay a "hidden danger" for the above-mentioned "problems", but it is also possible to correctly master the auxiliary breathing methods during labor through appropriate physical exercise, avoid holding your breath prematurely during labor, and pass appropriate recovery training in time after delivery.
Injury 3: cervical erosion? !
Relevant data show that the incidence of cervical erosion among adult women in China is 26. 1%! In the past, the incidence of cervical erosion in pregnant women was much higher than that in barren women, because the occurrence of cervical erosion was usually related to cervical injury or eversion caused by childbirth and puerperal infection, and pathogens took the opportunity to invade the related cervical epithelium and cause lesions.
In fact, cervical erosion does not happen because of childbirth. Induced abortion or other surgical operations, even more "ordinary" mechanical stimulation (such as rough sex life) may lead to the same injury; In addition, due to the high level of estrogen in the body, similar changes in cervical epithelium will occur, and some women who have no pregnancy experience will also have severe cervical erosion.
Ways to avoid cervical erosion: In this way, cervical erosion is not a "patent" for mothers, but if you maintain overall health (including a stable balance of endocrine hormones), avoid reproductive tract infections during pregnancy, childbirth and puerperium, and improve pregnancy management according to the above tips, you can effectively avoid the possibility of surgical midwifery and various "injuries" ... Even if you are a mother, you can make yourself a small but important organ.
Injury 4: Body shape change?
There are still many women who regard "broad-minded and fat" as a "sign" change after becoming a mother because they see that most mothers are too busy to be slovenly and the "great changes" in their bodies are almost "terrible", and they are often unwilling to take on the responsibility of being a mother because they don't want their bodies to become "attractive" so soon. ...
In fact, the "changes" in all aspects of postpartum women's bodies (except the breast after breastfeeding, all other organs in the whole body) can often gradually "naturally" return to the physiological state and functional level before pregnancy about one year after childbirth! Only women who have experienced pregnancy and childbirth often shift their "focus" of work because they have taken on more new social "responsibilities", while ignoring the care of their body shape and even the whole physical and mental health; In addition, due to the imperfection of our pregnancy education, most women who are about to become mothers often can't get enough knowledge to help themselves.
It is not impossible to keep in shape: if you always take the physical and mental health of yourself and your family (including fitness) as the overriding thing, give enough attention and "attention", learn relevant knowledge in time and conduct professional consultation, scientifically and reasonably "arrange" your pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum recovery, and stay young and even successfully "cover up" your "mother" identity ... it is not unattainable.
Injury 5: Other health problems?
Many people still have the view that once pregnant and having children, women seem to be more prone to various health problems, especially the elderly women who have given birth over 35 years old, and are more prone to systemic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes; On the other hand, doctors often warn these women who suffer from the above-mentioned diseases during pregnancy that even if their blood pressure is stable in a short time after delivery, their blood sugar level will tend to be normal ... The chances of her recurring similar "problems" in her later life are much higher than those of women who have never experienced pregnancy.
Are all these "troubles" caused by pregnancy?
In fact, the "cause and effect" here is just the opposite of what you see! These so-called modern "lifestyle" diseases are the cumulative result of a series of "conditions" such as unbalanced diet, lack of exercise and getting rid of stress in time; Pregnancy is like a "practical exercise" for your body. Expose your neglected "defects" as soon as possible.
Therefore, please take all kinds of "complications" you encountered during pregnancy as an important reminder, check out the bad places in your lifestyle and adjust or correct them in time! As long as you make enough and proper efforts, you can even deny the obstetrician's health "prediction" for you and even your future children.
In this way, through adequate pre-pregnancy preparation, perfect pregnancy management (including nutrition, exercise and other aspects) and timely and appropriate adjustment after delivery, all kinds of "problems" that "mothers" may face can be successfully solved. "Sacrifice" of motherhood is not always "inevitable"!
