Many mothers may prefer to opt for cesarean section due to pain caused by contractions before delivery, among other reasons. However, if the mother's own conditions permit, vaginal delivery is actually better. Among them, pelvic condition is also one of the influencing factors. So, how should pelvic conditions be considered when choosing vaginal delivery?
Because the pelvis is one of the important parts of the birth canal, it has a significant impact on the speed and duration of delivery, and these two factors also determine whether the mother can choose vaginal delivery. Usually, when the pregnant woman is between 28 and 38 weeks pregnant, the doctor will take a pelvic condition measurement to see her pelvic condition.
Once the pelvic conditions are not suitable for vaginal delivery, it means that only cesarean section can be chosen. In addition to the significant impact of pelvic conditions, the position of the fetal head in the belly is also very important, so it is often said that fetal position is very important.
The correct fetal position suitable for vaginal delivery should be that the fetal head is facing downwards before delivery, so that the mother can feel the round head of the fetus in the lower abdomen position, which is a more suitable fetal head position for vaginal delivery. But if the position is reversed or horizontal, it can basically be determined that only cesarean section can be chosen.
