How to accelerate uterine contractions after opening a finger

  When a parturient begins to experience regular contractions, it indicates that the parturient has entered the stage of preparing for delivery. The parturient needs to open the cervical opening to ten fingers wide in order to give birth smoothly. Opening the cervical opening requires contractions to promote it, and the interval between contractions will become shorter and the pain will intensify.

How to accelerate uterine contractions after opening a finger1

  Method 1: Massage the nipple to promote it. After the occurrence of uterine contractions, if the mother wants to accelerate the contractions and promote the opening of the cervical opening, she can try massaging the nipple to stimulate it, which can promote the synthesis and secretion of oxytocin and better accelerate the contractions. The maximum duration of massaging the nipple should not exceed half an hour, with each nipple lasting 15 minutes. After completion, massage and stimulate the other nipple.

  Method 2: Increase exercise appropriately. After the onset of uterine contractions, if you want to accelerate the opening of the cervix, you can promote it through appropriate exercise, such as getting out of bed and walking more, or climbing stairs, which can help accelerate the contractions. However, it should be noted that if the pain of uterine contractions occurs, stop exercising to avoid falling, and have family members accompany you during exercise. After the pain of uterine contractions disappears, continue exercising.

  Method 3: Food Promotion Method. There are also food promotion methods to accelerate uterine contractions, such as eating hawthorn and its products, coffee, strong tea, honey, chocolate, onions, red fruits, papaya and other foods in moderation. These foods have a good function of stimulating uterine contractions in pregnant women, but pregnant women should pay attention to them. These foods should never be eaten during pregnancy, otherwise there is a risk of miscarriage or premature birth.
