To become a teammate of God, we must first understand the process of pregnancy and childbirth. Although pregnancy and childbirth are usually considered as women's affairs, as co-creators of new life, prospective fathers also play an important role in the process of pregnancy and childbirth. Gao Qianhui, chairman of the Taiwan Province Midwifery Society, said that for women, if the other half can fully participate in the pregnancy process, master their physical changes during pregnancy, and provide specific support and help during labor and delivery, the whole pregnancy experience will become extremely pleasant and beautiful. Expectant mothers may wish to take their husbands to production education classes. This kind of course can not only help prospective fathers to understand the physical changes of mommy in all aspects of production, but also allow them to examine the advantages and disadvantages of various medical measures together, including whether to have children, whether to relieve pain, whether to shave, etc. And make a production plan in advance.
Through the study of the production course, the prospective father will become the coach of mommy in labor and delivery, give objective advice to mommy in time, reduce mommy's insecurity, and act as a bridge to communicate with medical staff, so that mommy can concentrate on her own physical changes.
Watching production documentaries is of little help to parturients. Some wives will let their husbands watch and make documentaries, thinking that doing so can prepare their husbands for companionship in advance. However, Gao Qianhui said, after entering the delivery room, the accompanying staff will generally only stand around the maternal head and will not see bloody pictures. It doesn't really matter much whether they watch movies or not. If you just watch movies without subtitle interpretation or expert explanation, it will expand people's imagination of production and make them more afraid of the production process. Before letting the other half watch and make a documentary, it is best to ensure that the film has subtitles or experts to help explain it, so as not to be self-defeating.
Although the course of production education can help prospective fathers prepare in advance, there are still many prospective fathers who will be hammered out because of excessive tension during actual delivery. We ask experts to provide advice on "should do" and "shouldn't do" in the three stages of accompanying the baby, so that the prospective father can easily take notes and become a professional delivery room teammate!
Wife in labor? God's teammates should ... 1 ... help his wife * * * take a bath to relieve her pain. 2. Assist wife to adjust breathing rhythm. 3. Remind your wife to go to the toilet and replenish water. 4. Feed your wife to eat high-calorie and digestible food to reserve physical strength. In the process of delivery, the number and pressure of uterine contractions will be higher and higher. Mommy usually closes her eyes and concentrates on coping with the discomfort caused by uterine contraction. At this time, she should carefully observe the changes of mommy's expression and movements and provide the help she needs in time. If * * * and the shower can't help Mommy to relieve the pain, remember to ask Mommy's needs, and don't do it with your head closed.
As the contractions get stronger and stronger, mommy's breathing will become more and more rapid and shallow, which may lead to hyperventilation. At this time, help mommy adjust her breathing rhythm at any time. You can use gestures to strengthen her movements when shouting slogans. For example, say "breathe in" with the palm up, then say "breathe out" with the palm down, and cheer for Mommy: "Yes, that's it, that's great! 」
In the first stage of labor, besides helping mommy to relieve pain and adjust breathing rhythm, we should try our best to keep mommy comfortable. We can use the gap to feed mommy something a little hot but not too greasy, such as pudding, juice, hot honey water, etc., so that mommy can store her strength. Remind mommy to replenish water at any time to avoid dry mouth; In addition, remember to remind mommy to go to the toilet every two hours to avoid the bladder expanding and squeezing the uterus, causing the baby to fall.
My wife's labor pain is very serious. Three strokes can help her relieve the pain. 1. Jump slowly. According to the principle of gravity, swinging the pelvis can not only help the baby move down, but also effectively relieve the pain in the uterus. Dad can stand face to face with mommy, with his feet shoulder-width apart, his upper body leaning forward, hugging mommy, and using the power of pelvis to drive his body to swing left and right. As the frequency of contractions increases, mommy will lean forward more and more and gradually fit her father's body, which means that mommy is gradually releasing the pressure of pain.
Method two. * * * * * The back of hand, palm, lateral ankle, heel and tailbone can effectively relieve pain. Dad can apply a little lotion or essential oil to these parts of Mommy before starting. * * * The back of hand, palm, lateral ankle, and thumb are close together, and a ring is made from the inside to the outside with the thumb as the center * * *; * * * When holding the heel with both hands, hold tightly and relax repeatedly; * * * coccyx, put your hands and palms on the coccyx and press hard, and make a circle from the inside out with the palm as the center.
Method three. Take a warm shower. Mother sat on the toilet with her feet shoulder-width apart. Dad stood in front of his mother and helped her carry herself forward. Then, ask family members or medical staff to take warm water to the shower head and pour it slowly from the back of Mommy's neck.
