Can the husband accompany the baby? Is the husband accompanying the baby good?

In foreign countries, it is very popular for parents to enter the delivery room at the same time. Many dads will take camera equipment to record the whole process of mother's delivery, but in China, there are fewer dads accompanying the delivery. Then, there are many people who have doubts. Do you want your husband to accompany you? Let's talk to you today about whether my husband is accompanying the baby.

Is it necessary for the husband to accompany the baby?

The husband's presence in the delivery room has a good side, which can add strength to the parturient, alleviate the fear during childbirth and share the pain of his wife. At the same time, it is a great experience to share the arrival of a new life with your wife, and it can also relieve all kinds of worries, such as worrying about accidents in childbirth, worrying about the replacement of children, worrying about the abuse of your wife in the delivery room, etc. In addition, you can truly understand the process of childbirth and understand the greatness of mothers. I will love my wife more in the future.

However, there are also disadvantages. If the husband is not prepared psychologically, he may have an accident. For example, when he sees so much blood, the timid husband may even faint. There are also some husbands who are prone to create situations. For example, when they see that their wives are in too much pain, they ask for a caesarean section, or they scream louder than the parturient ... Some of them will also affect the mood of the parturient. Originally, the parturient can insist, but as a result, because of her husband's presence, the parturient's crying is intensified and she can't exert herself, which may lead to fetal hypoxia and affect delivery.

Therefore, we usually explain the advantages and disadvantages of the husband accompanying the delivery, and the parturient and their families, so that they can choose whether the husband will accompany the delivery room or not. And China's husband, basically will stay away. And some husbands, even if they are willing, are opposed by their wives. Their ideas are simple, and they don't want their husbands to see the naked and embarrassing scene of giving birth.

I remember that once, the husband of a parturient went into the delivery room to accompany her, but nothing unusual happened during the delivery. I watched my wife's delivery process calmly. However, after the parturient came home, her husband gave her a cold shoulder. It's been half a year, and her husband has been reluctant to share the same room with her. The wife asked why, and the husband said that after seeing his wife's real delivery, the psychological stimulation was too great, and he felt no attraction to his wife.

So, although it is common practice for husbands to accompany their babies in the west, it is not surprising that husbands are given a cold shoulder in China because of the different national conditions in China. I'm afraid it's still a long way to go before western husbands can really enter the delivery room to accompany them.

When accompanying the baby, the husband can do this

1. Find the right position before entering the delivery room, and it is most appropriate to stand on the left side of the pregnant mother. Don't walk around at will, so as not to affect the doctor.

2. Tell the expectant mother about the delivery process at any time and cheer up the pregnant mother.

3. At the last critical moment, most pregnant mothers are sprinting "exhausted", and her husband's encouragement is very powerful.

4. After the baby is born, you can help cut off the umbilical cord or tell your wife about the baby, so as to reduce the pain of the wife's lateral incision and suture.

notes for accompanying a husband

Generally speaking, a pregnant woman will begin to have labor pains two weeks before and after the expected date of delivery. The first stage of labor begins with regular labor pains and ends with the cervix fully dilated to 1cm; the second stage of labor begins with the cervix fully opened and ends with the delivery of the fetus; and the third stage of labor ends with the delivery of the fetus and the complete discharge of placenta and amniotic fluid.

procedure of accompanying labor

Mr. Wang's accompanying labor begins when he is admitted to the hospital during the first stage of labor. First of all, accompany the delivery in the waiting room in the delivery room, and try to cooperate with the medical staff. If the wife has any discomfort, she can help inform the medical staff; During the labor period, Mr. Wang can apply the knowledge and skills he learned in his mother's classroom courses or reference books to help his wife. When the wife's uterine mouth is fully open, she can also be taught to use force like defecation, so that the fetal head can slowly descend to the point where the vaginal opening can be seen; Then, the wife will be transferred to the delivery room to give birth. At this time, Mr. Wang can also put on isolation gown, go into the delivery room to accompany him, wait until the treatment is completed, then leave the delivery room and accompany his wife back to the postpartum ward to rest.

Six Benefits of Husband's Accompanying Childbirth

It can be seen that the husband's accompanying childbirth has the following six benefits:

1. In the process of waiting for childbirth, the husband and wife share joys and sorrows, which invisibly enhances the love between husband and wife.

6. During the accompanying period, Mr. Wang can not only calm his wife's mood, but also relieve her pressure of childbirth, help the medical staff a lot, and have a deeper understanding of medical care.

sequela of husband's accompanying childbirth

In fact, the benefits of husband's accompanying childbirth are endless, but there are also some cases that will lead to the husband's failure to lift his arms or his wife's "love to do" in the short term. Therefore, I suggest that you gentlemen must be fully prepared before accompanying your wife to give birth. If you are the kind of person who is naturally afraid of seeing bloody pictures and will faint, it is better to avoid it.
