How to Give Birth Safely
While a woman is pregnant and awaiting the time for her to give
birth, it is said that one of her feet is at death's door.
This, however, proves false as most mothers through the course
of time have given birth to healthy babies.
It is just critical if there are certain complications which
have arisen during pregnancy. But in general, as long as the
mother-to-be is healthy and if she did not encounter any
problems during the first and second trimester of pregnancy, she
is bound to have a normal and safe delivery.
More and more women now opt for a natural birth at home.
Still, whether you choose to give birth to your child at home,
in a hospital or in a birthing center, it is best to be prepared
so that you can bring your baby into this world in a safe
manner.
Here are some tips on how you can have safely deliver your child
and welcome him or her into your arms:
1. Read up.
As your due date to give birth nears, you should have already
read everything that there is to know about child care, being in
labor and pregnancy.
Surf the net, as there are a lot of web sites which tackle child
care. Know the phases of your pregnancy and check out in detail
the changes that are being made on your body as well as on the
fetus on your womb.
Being armed with every knowledge that you possibly can gain
before your ninth month of pregnancy will not just give you an
edge but also reduce your fear of the unknown.
If you are a first-time mom, you can talk to other women who
have had children and learn from their experiences.
2. Prepare a birth plan.
This is one crucial part of giving birth, as this would indicate
your decision about major things. Examples are whether you want
to give birth at home, or in the hospital or birthing center; or
if you want an ob-gyne, midwife or labor coach to be with you
during the delivery of your child.
3. Pack a "suitcase" for the things that you will need when you
go into labor.
Being safe means being prepared so if you plan to go to the
hospital, pack up. If you plan to
give birth at home, assign a
particular area where you can put all of the things that you
will need when you go into labor.
This would include your clothes and toiletries as well as the
things that the baby will need as soon as he or she is born.
4. Pour out your anxieties and fears to the person who will help
you deliver the baby.
Whether you choose to have your obstetrician, labor coach or a
midwife to "conduct" the delivery of your child, make sure that
that person knows about your feelings.
Have a thorough talk with this person and lay out your plan and
major decisions on what you think is best for you and for the
baby.
Brief them about your medical history which might affect the way
that your delivery goes.
The more armed they are with knowledge about your fears,
anxieties and medical history, the more prepared they will be
when you finally go into labor. This would result to a smoother
process of delivering the baby and prepare everyone should
complications arise.
5. Trust your insticts.
In the course of your labor and you do not feel comfortable with
what your doctor or the midwife instructs you to do, speak out.
You are the only one who knows your own body and when you feel
that something is wrong, tell your doctor about it.
6. Prepare yourself for complications that might arise.
You might not have a picture-perfect delivery, but as long as
you keep your heart and mind open and prepare yourself for any
complications that may occur, then you can deal with anything
that comes through the course of your labor.
