Each birth story is a unique and painful way of giving birth to a baby. Whether it is giving birth in water, at home, partnering or through a cesarean section, all women experience pain and happiness at the same time at the first meeting with their baby. There are still no ways to ensure a completely painless delivery, so the psychological attitude for a pregnant woman is very important.
Not every woman who is pregnant for the first time knows how to behave during fights and attempts. She has little idea of the whole
process of childbirth. The information received from friends, mothers and grandmothers often looks like this: a frightening history of childbirth, hellish torment, blood loss and breaks. In the head of the future mother, a misconception about delivery is formed and an insurmountable fear appears, which intensifies every day. In this regard, upon the arrival of a long-awaited day, a woman begins to panic, behaves incorrectly and can harm not only herself, but also the baby’s health. Therefore, it is very important to carefully prepare for this process.
Preparation for childbirth
- Childbirth is work. Do not listen to childbirth stories told by inexperienced friends who were not ready for the natural process of procreation. You must tune in to what you will need to work hard to give birth to a child. To do this, you will need to learn to relax and understand your body. You can enroll in psychological preparation courses for childbirth, and it is better if you attend them with your spouse.
- Lead the right way of life. Nutrition, sleep, weight and rest should be controlled. Also move more, walk, breathe fresh air. Take vitamins.
- The mood is very important! You should always remember that you and your baby are, and everything else is nonsense! Do not worry about trifles and do not enter into conflicts. Your baby feels and experiences everything with you.
- Visit your doctor regularly, get all the tests done on time, and don't miss an exam. An exchange card should always be with you, even if you left home for five minutes.
- If you are inclined to partner birth, then psychological preparation is necessary for both. The presence of a loved one should support, not oppress. The partner should learn a relaxing massage technique that will help anesthetize the contractions.
- Remember that you still give birth, even if there are any problems. There is epidural anesthesia, various obstetric techniques. You will only have your birth history. Caesarean section will help you even if its need has not been diagnosed before. However, this does not mean that efforts should not be made to behave properly in childbirth.
- You must wait for this day as the happiest, because your child will be born!
The appearance of the baby in the family is a huge joy, which is not comparable with anything! As soon as you first see your child, you will immediately forget what pain you had to endure. You must believe that your childbirth history will surely end successfully.
