How to cut a second child in a cesarean section

  Many mothers need to undergo cesarean section to remove their babies due to factors such as difficult delivery, pregnancy complications, pregnancy complications, or because the mother is older, difficult to conceive, and the baby is particularly precious after multiple failed pregnancies. Many mothers need to have a cesarean section for their second child, so how should a cesarean section be cut horizontally for the second child?

  

How to cut a second child in a cesarean section1

  For a cesarean section of a second child, the height of the transverse incision is generally above the mother's pubic symphysis, about 3 to 4 centimeters, and the length of the wound should be maintained at 15 centimeters. In addition to the epidermis, subcutaneous tissue and fascia all need to be transected. When cutting to the rectus abdominis muscle, it needs to be changed to a longitudinal section at the midline before entering the abdominal cavity.

  After a cesarean section, the wound is not very obvious after recovery. Mothers who have recovered well will only leave a light white mark on their abdomen, and after healing, this wound can be hidden under their underwear. The incision is also very consistent with the skin texture and does not affect aesthetics, so many young mothers like to choose a transverse cut.

  If it is a pregnant woman who is relatively overweight, the incidence of complications after transverse cutting is lower than longitudinal cutting, and the wound healing is better, with very few problems of fat liquefaction.

  However, the disadvantage of cross cutting is that it can break the fibrous layer of the skin, resulting in slower recovery. Most mothers have to wait for more than three years to have a second child. Moreover, cesarean section and transverse section will increase the difficulty of the surgery. If the doctor is not proficient enough, it is easy to cause excessive blood loss in the mother, and it is difficult to remove the fetal head. The muscle layer will be relatively large, and the damage to the body will be greater than that of longitudinal section.
