When an expectant mother gives birth, a normal delivery will cause less harm than a caesarean section, because a caesarean section requires pain from the incision, and after delivery, oxytocin is administered and the belly is pressed. I believe many mothers who have had a caesarean section have experienced this pain so deeply that they simply don’t want to think about it.
Some mothers are well-informed and may talk about analgesic pumps. Using this can reduce a lot of pain. Do analgesic pumps really have such great benefits? Below are some real experiences of mothers. I hope pregnant mothers during pregnancy will read it.
@心之愿: When I gave birth to my son, the doctor said that in my case I could only have a caesarean section, and I also used an analgesic pump, which comes in several price ranges! I chose the mid-priced one, which cost more than 300 yuan. When I returned to the ward, the tubes had fallen outside and I didn’t feel any pain. Now think about whether it hurts or not, it should be a psychological effect.
@小Steptailor: My colleague Xiao Li didn’t use a pain pump when she gave birth to her eldest son. At that time, she thought she could endure it, so nothing was used. That night she was in so much pain that she couldn’t close her eyes, and she seemed to have Countless ants were biting me, not to mention how painful it was. The conditions were much better when I gave birth to my second child, and everything I could use was used. The analgesic pump was really effective in relieving the pain. It was much easier than the first child. I basically felt no pain on the third day, and she was still an advanced maternal age. , the interval between the two pregnancies was ten years.
@julinYouyou: I think analgesic pumps are still very useful. I gave birth to two children by caesarean section, and both used pain pumps. At that time, the doctor said that it could be controlled for 48 hours. Later, after the analgesic pump was removed, I felt that the incision was not so painful. Now think about it, if it was not used, the incision would hurt so much!
@我最爱的 egg fried rice: I used an analgesic pump when I gave birth to Dabao. There was no pain in the wound after giving birth, but there was some pain when the uterine contraction fluid was infused. Now that I am pregnant with my second child, I will have to have a caesarean section, so I will definitely use it. My father-in-law is the director of the anesthesiology department. He said that it would have no effect on that one, and I haven’t had any back pain in the past few years.
@小豆儿丁: My best friend Xiaoying is not sensitive to anesthetics, and it hurt like hell on the operating table. She still hurt after giving birth to analgesic injections, so she put on an analgesic pump, but it still had no effect at all. . In fact, analgesic pumps are not effective for everyone, and mothers must be mentally prepared.
@之文mother: I was born by caesarean section, and I also used the analgesic pump. It hurt less when I used it, but after using it, I still had pain during confinement. Two months later, I sometimes feel pain in my lower back, and everyone says it’s because of the pump.
@小婷小碰王: My cousin is usually very afraid of pain and is super sensitive to pain, so she decisively used an analgesic pump after giving birth. Facts have proved that her choice was right, and the wound really didn’t hurt that much. The recovery is also very fast and there are no side effects at all.
After reading so many mothers’ experience sharing, it seems that the analgesic pump has no side effects, but it may cause low back pain after use. Everyone’s situation is different, so this is not certain. The analgesic pump works within 72 hours. The biggest advantage is that under complete analgesia, you can turn over in bed early, which is very helpful for gastrointestinal motility and physical recovery. Early postpartum activities can also prevent the formation of blood clots for mothers. Therefore, 6 hours after the operation, the new mother can turn over on her own or ask her family to help her sit up, and then get out of bed after 24 hours.
Since everyone has their own opinions, let’s take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of using analgesic pumps during caesarean section
Benefits: The main purpose of using analgesic pumps is to try as much as possible Reduce the pain of expectant mothers. And doing so is also helpful for expectant mothers to start breastfeeding as early as possible, because it can help promote the secretion of prolactin, allowing the mother to breastfeed earlier, and the mother will produce more milk. In this way, the breastfeeding rate of mothers can be improved, which is good for both mothers and babies. And the drugs contained in it will not have adverse effects on the baby through breast milk.
Furthermore, the analgesic pump works for a long time. After the operation, the mother can turn over, sit up, etc. by herself or with the help of family members. She can also get out of bed and move about one day later, which can help the mother. Promote gastrointestinal motility, shorten the time of flatulence, and allow mothers to eat as early as possible.
However, using analgesic pumps also has certain side effects, but they vary from person to person and may also vary due to different drugs used. For example, some expectant mothers may experience symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, while others may experience itchy skin and difficulty breathing. However, there is currently no evidence that the use of analgesic pumps will leave behind the sequelae of backache. If the expectant mother has obvious side effects, doctors will usually stop taking the medication and use other methods of analgesia.
