What factors determine women's childbirth difficulties? What causes women's childbirth difficulties?

We often hear the saying, "Women with big butts are more likely to give birth." Is this true? What factors determine women's difficulty giving birth?

1. Pelvis

If the female pelvis is wide and shallow, it is conducive to the fetus's passage; if the pelvis is deep and narrow, it is not conducive to delivery. If the anteroposterior diameter of the pelvis is relatively long, and the transverse diameter is relatively short, the fetus is not easy to deliver. If the pelvic inlet is normal, and the middle and lower planes become narrower and narrower, it is called a funnel pelvis, which can also cause dystocia. However, pregnant mothers do not need to worry too much, the doctor will choose the most appropriate delivery method based on the pregnant mother's prenatal examination.

2. Fetus

The baby's posture, delivery style, body shape, position, head circumference, chest circumference, etc. may affect the smooth progress of the delivery process. Nowadays, more and more "gigantic babies" are beginning to appear, which can also cause difficulties for pregnant mothers in delivery.

3. Psychological factors

The healthy mood of the pregnant mother is also an important reason for a smooth delivery. If the pregnant mother is overly nervous during delivery, it will cause the pregnant mother's blood pressure to rise, the fetus to be ischemic and hypoxic, and cause fetal intrauterine distress. In addition, pregnant mothers with unstable emotions often have a longer delivery process and irregular uterine contractions.

4. Uterine contraction

When the pregnant mother is about to give birth, the uterus will contract regularly. If the uterine contraction is too strong and the labor process is too short, it will cause birth canal lacerations; if the labor process is too long, it means that the uterus contraction is not good or the fetus and pelvis are not matched, which should be treated in time and a caesarean section should be performed if necessary.

1. Pregnant women aged 24-28 are more likely to give birth naturally.

When giving birth, the baby needs to be delivered from the birth canal, which is full of challenges for the mother's birth canal. The tension of the birth canal is very important for the smooth delivery. For female friends, 24 to 28 years old is the most suitable for childbirth, because if the age is younger than 24, the body organs are not mature enough, and the pelvis is not fixed, which is not helpful for the baby during natural delivery, and the body's recovery after delivery is also slow. If the age is over 28, the pelvic joints have become hardened, the contraction of the uterus and the tension of the vagina are relatively poor, and the natural delivery may take a little longer, and it may even lead to dystocia, so generally older mothers will choose cesarean section.

2. Appropriate exercise helps natural childbirth.

Many pregnant mothers have made plans for rest and recuperation during pregnancy. According to traditional fetal care concepts, they are not allowed to exercise, so some pregnant mothers do not move at all. In fact, proper exercise can relieve the tension of pregnant mothers, promote the increase of oxygen content in the blood, the replacement of amniotic fluid, and promote the physical development, respiratory circulation, etc. of the fetus. If pregnant mothers insist on exercising, their bodies will be more flexible and their physical fitness will be higher. This can shorten the delivery process during natural childbirth and reduce the chance of dystocia.

There are many ways to exercise for pregnant mothers. You should choose those soothing and gentle sports. The best sports are walking and swimming. You should control the time during exercise and not be too excited. The best time to exercise should be one hour after a meal. After exercise, you should rest and replenish your energy.

3. Pregnant mothers who have confidence in themselves are more likely to give birth naturally.

During pregnancy, especially when the baby is about to be born, pregnant mothers who are pregnant for the first time often feel nervous and expectant. During the delivery process, pregnant mothers need to maintain confidence that they can do it and have confidence that they can have a smooth natural delivery. Therefore, before delivery, pregnant mothers should scientifically and correctly understand the process of natural delivery, maintain a stable mood, and actively cooperate with obstetricians and believe in the skills of obstetricians.

4. Pregnant women who eat a balanced diet are more likely to give birth naturally.

During the ten months of pregnancy, many pregnant mothers will eat a lot of tonic food, which will cause their weight to soar. However, pregnant mothers who are overweight will indirectly cause the baby to be overweight, or even become giant babies, and may get stuck in the birth canal and be unable to deliver. Therefore, pregnant mothers who want to give birth naturally only need to follow a normal diet every day, eat more vegetables and fruits, and have a balanced diet, which will help with natural delivery.

1. Pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene

During the delivery process, the pregnant mother's uterine cavity is in an open state, which can easily cause infection problems. This will have a great impact and harm on the safety of delivery, the health of the baby and the recovery after delivery. Therefore, pregnant mothers must pay attention to personal hygiene before delivery, and remember to change underwear frequently, so as to minimize the possibility of infection and make the delivery operation safer.

2. Arrange meals reasonably

A reasonable diet before delivery can not only provide sufficient nutrients for the baby's development, but also accumulate more physical strength for delivery, which is extremely beneficial to the baby's development and the safety of delivery.

Therefore, pregnant mothers must pay attention to a reasonable diet during delivery. They can eat more nutritious foods such as seaweed, fish, kelp, etc., and try not to eat foods that are harmful to the body, such as fried dough sticks and pickles.

3. Exercise moderately

Proper exercise before delivery can not only enhance immunity, but also accumulate more strength for delivery, which is very beneficial for the safety of delivery and recovery after delivery.

Therefore, for the sake of health and safety during childbirth, female friends must exercise appropriately before giving birth, but remember not to overwork themselves.

4. Practice auxiliary movements

Practicing breathing techniques and auxiliary movements before childbirth can not only improve pregnant mothers' understanding of childbirth, but also boost their self-confidence, which is very important for the safety of childbirth. Therefore, pregnant mothers must change their bad habits of being lazy about exercise and must follow the doctor's advice to familiarize themselves with the skills and process of childbirth.

5. Pay attention to adjusting your mood

Negative emotions such as worry, tension, fear, etc. will not only disrupt the balance of the pregnant mother's endocrine system, but also cause dangerous conditions such as premature birth and dystocia. This will cause great harm to the safety of pregnancy and delivery, the health of pregnant women, and the life safety of the baby. Therefore, pregnant mothers must pay attention to regulating their emotions before giving birth, and must maintain a calm mind to welcome the arrival of the little life.

Low-impact aerobics: One benefit of taking aerobics classes is that you can exercise regularly at a fixed time. If you take a class specifically for expectant mothers, you can also fully enjoy the good time of emotional communication with other expectant mothers, and you can rest assured that every move taught here is safe for you and your baby.

Dancing: Dancing improves blood circulation in the body. You can dance to your favorite music in the comfort of your own living room or join a dance class, but avoid strenuous movements such as jumping or spinning.

Yoga: Yoga keeps your muscles tight and flexible, and it puts less stress on your joints, but you may want to add a few walks or swims a week to your yoga routine to get more cardio.

Stretching exercises: Stretching exercises can keep your body flexible and relaxed, and prevent muscle strain. You can combine stretching exercises with cardiovascular exercises to give your body a comprehensive workout.

Weight training: If weight training is part of your regular exercise, there is no need to stop after pregnancy, but most pregnant women should reduce the weight of the training (you can ensure adequate exercise by increasing the number of repetitions). As long as the necessary protective measures and reasonable techniques (slow, controlled movements) are taken, weight training is a good way to strengthen and exercise muscles. However, this training method is best approved by your health care doctor and carried out under the guidance of a professional coach.
