dilated

WHY DOES YOUR MIDWIFE TELL YOU TO HOLD ON WITH PUSHING EVEN WITH STRONG AND PAINFUL CONTRACTIONS

This is because the cervix which is the opening of the uterus has to open from 0 to 10 cm. At 10 cm the midwife must confirm the cervix is fully dilated. If it is not fully dilated pushing through it will cause cervical tear which may lead to bleeding and other complications.

Let your doctor or midwife confirm dilation first before you start bearing down or pushing

In few cases the mum does not have control baby comes out rapidly.

In all work with your doctor or midwife for the best results

Bladder

A FULL BLADDER DURING LABOR

Do you realize that once you are in the active phase of labor, your doctor or midwife will continue to encourage you to empty your bladder.

A cather will be used to drain the urine if bladder is full but the woman is unable to pass the urine

This is because, full bladder may prevent the head of the baby from descending into the pelvis. Contractions may not be so efficient.

After the birth of your baby a full bladder may also prevent the uterus from contracting well and can lead to bleeding.

Cooperate with your doctor or midwife for the best outcome of your pregnancy! 024 228 1957
