At this stage, the phenomenon of late marriage and late childbirth is becoming more and more obvious. In addition to the opening and encouragement of the two child policy, the number of elderly mothers is also increasing. Older mothers all share a common concern: Can older mothers accept a natural birth when giving birth?
The elderly parturient refers to the parturient who is over 35 years old. Pregnant women are too old, the joints of pelvis become hard, the ligaments and soft tissues of the birth canal have poor elasticity, and the stretching force is also poor, which makes it difficult to expand. The energy and physical strength decrease during childbirth, which leads to the weak contractility of the child, so that the delivery time is prolonged, and dystocia is likely to occur. Finally, cesarean section is required, so many pregnant women are afraid of "suffering a second time", and take the initiative to choose cesarean section.
However, for the health of mothers and babies, natural delivery is more beneficial than cesarean section. For the health of children, many expectant mothers still want to choose natural delivery. So, should the elderly parturient choose natural delivery or cesarean section?
In fact, most elderly mothers can choose to give birth naturally as long as they grasp these three hurdles at ordinary times:
1、 Check Off
The older the pregnant woman is, the higher the probability of pregnancy complications will occur. Therefore, pregnant women should pay special attention to prenatal examination, discover and treat various pregnancy complications and complications as soon as possible, and let professional doctors escort eugenics, so as to minimize the high-risk risks of pregnancy.
2、 Recuperation pass
The diet during pregnancy should be mainly high protein, low fat and mild food. It is not advisable to overeat, have reasonable nutrition, control weight, and do some gymnastics and sports during pregnancy, do housework, and take a walk every day, all of which are good sports.
3、 Psychological
It is not easy for elderly women to get pregnant, so they and their families attach great importance to it, which often leads to mental stress and excessive worry of pregnant women. Therefore, we should adjust our psychology, treat the pregnancy and delivery process optimistically, and cooperate with doctors and nurses to give birth to healthy babies safely.
According to a British study, babies born after the age of 35 are smarter than babies born to young mothers. Because at this time, the mother is more mature, has more knowledge, and can take better care of her baby. Therefore, elderly mothers need not worry about it at all. Let's welcome the baby with confidence and boldness.
