From pregnancy to birth is a sweet and difficult process, but also the most important event in life, every mother wants to be able to leave a beautiful birth memories, and the core concept of gentle birth is to restore women's right to autonomy during the birth process, unlike the standardized control of the medical treatment, hoping that moms will be treated with respect and be happy to welcome their babies in the process. The company's mission is to provide the best possible service to its customers, and to provide them with the best possible service.
The most common form of birth control - the birth control tableIn Taiwan, most women use the birth control table as their main birth control, and the consultant at Lepore Maternity Clinic, Dr. Huang Guangda, explains that the birth control table is a standardized birth control process through medical technology, and that it is a better way to carry out the birth control table than the other forms of birth control. The first step in the process is to make sure that you are able to get the best out of your computer, and that you are able to get the best out of your computer, and that you are able to get the best out of your computer.
Dr. Huang Guangda further explains that because physicians and nursing staff must be trained in a standardized curriculum, the steps of the birth process can be standardized, and the advantage is that health care workers are familiar with the birth process, which can reduce the risk of birth, and the mother and baby can also be properly cared for. However, because of the excessive reliance on medical technology in labor and delivery, it may cause the mother to lose her autonomy in labor and create a psychological burden, which in turn affects family relationships. Dr. Huang Guang said, in fact, there is no absolute advantage or disadvantage of any mode of delivery, and each person should be judged according to his or her situation and choose the most appropriate mode of delivery. For example, some mothers have a smooth delivery process, and the delivery table does not bring any difficulties or pressure, but for some mothers, it may cause difficulties in exerting force during delivery, resulting in prolonged delivery time, and sometimes even need to change to a The fact that they are not in a position to do so is a major concern for these moms.
The process of labor and delivery Because each mother's labor is different, and the length of time she experiences the labor may be different due to her physical condition, in order to respond to the risks and needs that may exist at each stage of the labor process, the process of labor and delivery can be broadly differentiated into the waiting room, the labor room, the recovery room, and the hospital room, and the following will be introduced to the characteristics and points of attention of each stage of labor.
The waiting room When a pregnant woman starts to have pains, and as the pains become more intense, the cervix dilates by about 4 centimeters in a first-timer's case, then she can go into the waiting room, and the waiting room is set up for the purpose of detecting the heartbeat of the fetus and the progression of the mother's labor.
Maternity ward Maternity ward is an important place to welcome the baby, so it is important to strictly control the environmental hygiene and cleanliness, and good disinfection measures to avoid maternal and fetal infections, normally, maternity wards are equipped with professional production equipment and emergency use of equipment, if the birth situation is smooth, the baby may be 30 minutes, but there may be two to five minutes, the baby will not be born, but it is also possible that the baby will be born. The baby may be born in 30 minutes if the labor goes well, but it may take 2-3 hours for the labor to be completed, depending on the condition of the mother and the baby, and the mother will be put into the recovery room for observation once the labor is completed.
Recovery room The role of the recovery room is to observe the mother's physical condition after delivery. Dr. Huang Guangda mentioned that the mother's life phenomenon may be due to the birth condition and physiological factors, adverse reactions and symptoms, therefore, the physical condition must be closely monitored for 1-2 hours after delivery, and only when the mother's condition is stabilized will she be able to go back to the ward to rest.
Ward Postpartum mother's body is weak and needs to be properly cared for and rested, and the ward is to provide physiological care for the mother, to help recover from the wound after delivery, the ward compared to the recovery room, the risk of occurrence of the chance is lower. In addition, the postnatal ward is a place for new parents to learn about caring for their babies and breastfeeding.
Natural birth or Cesarean section? Therefore, unless the mother's physical condition is poor, such as placenta praevia, fetal position, and other special factors, it will be recommended to the mother to carry out a cesarean section. The following is a detailed explanation of the common procedures and steps taken by professional obstetricians and gynecologists for mothers.
Q Necessity of episiotomy, ***, shaving? *** is recommended for mothers who have severe constipation or fecal obstruction problems, and generally, mothers do not need to undergo **** before delivery. Perineal incision, which must be performed to assess the labor situation, such as whether there is fetal distress or prolonged labor, and other difficult labor phenomena, although it is commonly performed on mothers, but is not a routine operation. The newest addition to the list is the newest addition to the list, the newest addition to the list, the newest addition to the list.
Dr. Huang Guangda explained that there is no research showing that episiotomy, ***, shaving can help the labor process, the effect is different from person to person, for the mother may not be able to bring benefits, not only this may also cause a psychological burden, therefore, these should only be done for the process of birth of the consideration of the option, rather than standardized standard process.
Q Reasons for IV drips? Not every mother needs an IV drip, but it can be used to replenish the mother's strength if she is experiencing symptoms during labor. However, there is another school of thought, which is that in order to prevent the mother from bleeding out, a catheter will be placed in the vein, which will come in handy in case of an emergency, but it will be explained to the mother in detail first, and then the mother will decide to do it herself.
Q Should I have a painless labor? Painless delivery is designed to reduce the pain of labor. Dr. Huang Guangda said that under normal circumstances, painless delivery is not recommended for mothers, unless the mother's pain tolerance is low, then painless delivery can be used to reduce the pain and psychological burden of the labor process.
Although painless labor can reduce pain, it can also bring negative effects, such as causing postoperative discomfort, prolonging the labor process, etc. Moreover, for women with poor coagulation, painless labor may cause spinal injuries and hemorrhage, so the necessity of using painless labor must be carefully considered. Dr. Huang also reminds us that women should understand the advantages and limitations of painless labor, and evaluate whether the benefits of using painless labor outweigh the negatives, so as not to cause regrets and accidents.
Q When to administer oxytocics? Basically, oxytocics are used when there is a need to enhance uterine contractions, such as when a woman's water has broken and her uterus is not contracting well, and she wants to use oxytocics to reduce the duration of labor to avoid the risk of infection. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new pair of shoes that you can wear to the office, and you'll be able to get your hands on a new pair of shoes that you can wear to the office, and you'll be able to get your hands on a new pair of shoes that you can wear to the office.
Q What is the situation with vacuum aspiration? Natural birth is not always smooth, sometimes you need to use medical equipment to assist, especially in the case of the mother in the process of labor force is not appropriate or the birth canal is narrow, it is easy to cause physical exhaustion, tired, weak, in this case, the doctor will use vacuum suction to help the baby to be born smoothly.
The vacuum extractor is used in the final stage of the labor process, such as the occurrence of fetal distress or the maternal successor to the situation, in order to alleviate the pain of mothers in labor, and to reduce the possibility of fetal hypoxia, is usually not pre-conceived process, must be based on the production of the situation to make a judgment, Dr. Huang Guangda said, the vacuum extractor suction pressure have been set after the standard, under the right operation and the The first thing you need to do is to make sure that you have a good idea of what you're getting into. The first step in the process is to make sure that you have the best possible experience in the field, so that you can be confident that you will get the best out of it.
Awareness of gentle birth Huang Zili, Secretary General of Taiwan's Gentle Birth Promotion Association, said that birth is a major transition process for women, and is also a meaningful thing, if you can leave a positive birth experience, in addition to boosting the mother's self-confidence, but also help the intimate relationship between mother and child. According to foreign research, the birth experience does affect the mother's mood in taking care of the baby, and there is a certain degree of correlation, therefore, such as in the birth process, the mother's needs have been taken seriously? Does she have the autonomy to choose the mode of delivery? Whether or not the healthcare provider has done their job properly is a key factor.
A gentle birth is one in which the mother is the primary caregiver, and the family is considered as a whole, and the most appropriate method of birth is slowly adjusted. Therefore, the first prerequisite is that the mother must understand her own physical condition and the various problems that may be encountered during the birth process, and discuss and communicate with healthcare professionals before choosing the appropriate method of birth.
Whether it's the prenatal period, the birth process, or the postnatal period, the mother's physical and mental state needs to be taken care of and valued. Dr. Huang Guangdao mentioned that most of the births are supposed to be natural physiological states rather than illnesses that require medical interventions, and that, especially with the high degree of autonomy that modern people have, it's important to find a balance between the need for births and their modalities, and to pay attention to the mother's physical and emotional privacy, in order to truly implement the concept of gentleness and gentleness. The concept of gentle birth can only be truly realized by focusing on the physical and emotional privacy of the mother.
Definition of gentle birth Gentle birth is a gentle way to help women give birth, from pregnancy, to labor, to the postpartum period, mothers can discuss with healthcare professionals to draw up a proper birth plan, so that mothers can choose to meet their own expectations of the birth method, and in a comfortable and safe environment, happy to welcome the baby's birth. Secretary General Huang Zili said that gentle birth cannot be generalized to a specific type of birth, as long as the needs and choices of the mother are taken into account, any type of birth can be gentle. In addition, the gentle birth also attaches great importance to the interaction and communication between the mother, her family and the medical staff. Dr. Huang Guangda believes that at this stage, we should focus on the implementation of the public's awareness of the gentle birth, which will also reduce the mother's obstacles in the process of birth (such as family members' opposition).
In the past, the reason for the criticism of the delivery table birth is because of the neglect of the mother's right to choose her own birth, and even some mothers may not even know that there are other birth options, Huang Zili Secretary General said, if the pregnant woman herself wants to be advised by a professional doctor to arrange the birth, as long as the mother and the medical staff can do a good job of communicating with each other and coordinating, the mother's opinion is valued and respected, it can be called a gentle birth. The mother's opinion is valued and respected, and it can certainly be called a gentle birth.
Multiple births In addition to the most common births, other births such as water births and home births are also common births, and any of these births can be considered, but only if the mother and fetus are in good health.
Sometimes mothers choose a certain way of giving birth, but because of the unexpected situation and change the way of giving birth, for example, originally chose to give birth in the water, but because of the maternal or fetal condition is not optimistic, must be temporarily changed to the birth of the platform, Huang Zili Secretary General, said that the medical staff and the maternal two sides must have the same **** knowledge, although it is not 100% sure of the safety of the process of delivery, but still can be done beforehand. Even if the final method of delivery is not what was previously envisioned, as long as the mother is given due respect and attention during the process, this is in line with the spirit of gentle birth.
Water birth is actually quite popular abroad, however, in Taiwan, because of the influence of medical production, many mothers are skeptical about water birth, what is water birth? What is water birth and what are the advantages and limitations of water birth? The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new pair of shoes or boots.
Advantages and limitations of water birth Generally speaking, water birth is the use of water buoyancy, resistance, and water temperature control, not only to increase the mother's sense of security, but also the study pointed out that the water birth can help mothers to secrete oxytocin, which can promote the progression of the labor process, and reduce vasopressin (vasopressin), and thus reduce the pain of the labor process. In addition, the buoyancy of the water can slow down the birth of the fetus impulse caused by the injury, such as will *** bit tear wound smaller, reduce the physiological injury of the mother. The most important feature of the water is that the mother can change her position at any time during the birth, and the water is relatively easy to use.
Dr. Huang Guang said, can not natural birth of the mother are not recommended to carry out water birth, but also does not mean that the natural birth of the mother can choose to water birth, water birth can be carried out smoothly, must depend on the individual situation, for example, maternal pelvic cavity if it is narrower, the buoyancy in the water may become resistance, resulting in the birth of the smooth; in addition, there have been complications during pregnancy or the baby's heartbeat is not good. The newest addition to the lineup is a new, more advanced version of the original, which is designed to be used in a variety of applications, such as the newest version of the DLNA, the newest version of the DLNA, and the newest version of the DLNA.
Preparation and precautions Regardless of the method of delivery, it is important to be well prepared before giving birth, to consider the various conditions that may be encountered during the delivery process as well as the measures to be taken, and to understand the environment and the medical equipment that will be used in the delivery, so as to be able to welcome the baby safely and without any worries. The following are some of the things you need to know about water births.
1. The depth of the bathtub used for water birth must have a certain depth to generate enough buoyancy, Huang Zili Secretary General said, the depth of the bathtub used at home is about 41 to 43 centimeters, while the depth of the professional water birth bathtub is about 60 centimeters, and the width is more spacious than that of the bathtub at home to be comfortable, the study pointed out that the mother of the mother of a baby, the water depth must be up to 10 centimeters. The study points out that the depth of the water when immersing the body must reach the chest, in order to effectively promote the secretion of oxytocin, and help the process of labor and delivery smooth.
2. The water must be controlled to ensure the quality of the water. Dr. Huang said that the water quality in Taiwan is not like that in foreign countries where the tap water can be used for drinking, so it can be used directly, and the tap water must be sterilized to avoid the problem of infections.
3. The equipment and environment must be cleaned and disinfected, especially the bathtub, which must be free of dead ends. Dr. Huang mentioned that there have been cases of infections in water births in foreign countries, which came from bacteria hiding in the holes of the bathtubs, leading to infections in the mothers and babies.
4. How long should I stay in the water? In principle, the duration of each water birth is about 90 minutes, and once the time is up, you must leave the water temporarily, as mentioned by the Secretary General of Huang Zili, so that the mother can get proper rest, and secondly, you can also carry out the fetal heartbeat detection, to confirm the health status of the fetus. In addition, during the period when the mother is out of the water, although the secretion of oxytocin will decrease, when the mother returns to the water again, the oxytocin will begin to rise slowly. According to the study, the average time for a first-time mother to give birth is 12 hours, while the average time for a water birth is 8.8 hours, which does shorten the duration of the labor.
Bacterial infections and choking accidents?
Does water birth have any bacterial infections?
Does water birth have any bacterial infection? This is the most common concern and doubt that parents have about water births. Dr. Huang explained that water births must follow a standard cleaning process, and if you can properly control the environment and equipment hygiene and cleanliness, according to statistics, the chance of infection is minimal, not to mention that the water itself has a dilution effect, and the safety is no less than the alcohol disinfection used in the production of the birth table. In addition to the environment and equipment, in addition, the water bacteria may also be from the mother or father, because the human body itself is more or less with bacteria, therefore, may also be one of the sources of infection, but the empirical evidence that the human body bacteria, and will not cause the baby infection problem, unless the child itself has a special body or condition, it is possible to trigger the problem of infection.
Can babies choke when they are born in water? Before answering this question, it is important to understand how babies begin to breathe. During pregnancy, the fetus is completely dependent on the placenta and umbilical cord to provide oxygen and nutrients, so the fetus doesn't need to breathe in the amniotic fluid. So when does the baby start breathing? The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new computer, and you'll be able to see what's going on in the background.
According to the study, if you can control the temperature of the water that the baby is exposed to after birth to simulate the temperature of the amniotic fluid in the body (water temperature of 37 degrees), in fact, the baby will not have a respiratory response, so, like foreign babies in the water after the birth of the baby, as long as the umbilical cord has not yet been cut, the baby placed in the water is also not relevant. However, because of individual differences, there may be a risk that the baby's reaction to the water may not be normal, so the safest way to do this is to take the baby out of the water after the birth, so that the mother and baby can have direct skin-to-skin contact.
How do I choose a safe birth center? After recognizing the concept of water birth, I believe there are many moms who want to know how to choose a safe birth hospital? Dr. Huang Guangda reminded that moms can review the following key points: such as the hospital's focus on water quality, whether or not the production bathtub facilities are perfect, whether or not there is a method that meets the conventional recommendations, and the medical staff must comply with the standard process, etc. The so-called standard process refers to the hygienic cleanliness and disinfection. The newest addition to the lineup is the newest addition to the lineup, the newest addition to the lineup, the newest addition to the lineup.
About home birth Birth is a continuous process that should be full of joy and happiness. In the past, most of the perceived births were in medical institutions, which led to the loss of the mother's primitive instincts to give birth, however, in recent years, the concept of gentle birth is gradually being implemented, and more and more mothers are beginning to realize their rights and want to return to their homes to give birth. However, in recent years, more and more mothers are realizing their rights and wanting to return to their homes to give birth and welcome their babies with their families.
Advantages and limitations of home birth
Home birth
Home birth
A lot of mothers think that home birth is less stressful, and that it can have a positive effect on their mood and further boost their self-confidence. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new computer, and you'll be able to do that.
The biggest risk of home births is the lack of medical resources. Although midwives can provide basic assistance and treatment, if an emergency occurs during labor, such as when a mother suffers a postpartum hemorrhage and needs professional medical intervention, the golden hour of treatment may be missed. The first step is to make sure that you are fully prepared for the event, so that you can have a smooth labor.
Preparation and precautions The first step in home birth is to choose the right midwife, because the midwife must be assisted by the midwife to guide the mother to give birth to the baby, therefore, the midwife plays a very important role, once the birth of a sudden situation, the midwife should immediately make the correct judgment, to help the whole process of birth The midwife should immediately make the right judgment to help the whole labor process go smoothly. The mother must also know her own health and the health of the fetus before the birth, and do a good job of assessing the home birth, including: physical condition, the birth environment, the support of family members, and so on.
How to choose the right midwife?
During pregnancy, the hospital will also conduct routine checkups, such as ultrasound and other items that require specialized equipment, and the mother can decide on her own the degree of medical intervention. In mid-pregnancy, if the mother's blood pressure rises or if there is protein in her urine, in principle, the mother will be advised to be referred to a medical institution for delivery, so as to choose the most beneficial way of delivery for both the mother and the baby.
Gentle Birth - Welcoming the New Baby with Love and Anticipation Gentle Birth PlanAs the date of birth approaches, pregnant women should begin to draw up their own birth plan. Just like the concept of gentle birth, we hope that mothers can participate in the birth process, including the birth mode, special physiological needs, emergency measures, etc., to list in detail the birth process that meets their expectations, and to communicate and discuss with the physician, to seek the best **** knowledge, in order to have a pleasant birth experience.
Designing a birth plan The process of birth is not an easy one for a mother, and if you can design a birth plan in advance, you can anticipate the various conditions that may be encountered during the birth, according to Dr. Huang Guangdao. The first step is to make sure that you have a good idea of what you want to do.
The birth plan can help mothers understand each step of the birth process, envision all the processes in advance, and put forward countermeasures, from pregnancy, birth to post-partum should be taken into account, so the prenatal period should be well-prepared, so that the mother's heart will also feel at ease and solid, to reduce the anxiety and restlessness. Medical caregivers, on the other hand, must inform mothers of the possible impacts and risks, and assist them in making the most appropriate decisions. The newest addition to the lineup is the newest addition to the lineup, the newest addition to the lineup, the newest addition to the lineup.
What you should know about gentle labor
There is no doubt that labor is a natural process, and as long as you are fully aware and prepared, you should be able to enjoy the autonomy of your own body on the premise of safety, not to mention that pregnant women are not sick, and that by reducing the involvement of medical technology in the labor process, you will be able to have more choices of labor options that will make your labor experience better.
Dr. Huang Guangdao said that the gentle process of birth, the role of the medical caregiver is very important, must be observed from the side and assist, and provide the right advice to help the mother's labor smooth, for example, the mother of the first child because of the pelvis is too small to operate, the second child is not recommended to the water birth; but if the first child to operate, is the relationship between the fetal position is not the right one, then the second child can be used to improve the water production However, if the first baby was operated because of fetal malposition, then the second baby can use water birth to improve the labor condition. In addition, if you are a doctor or midwife, you should have a good connection with the hospital so that if you have a problem, you can arrange for a referral as soon as possible, so that you can get the best care for your baby and the health of your mother.
