For expectant mothers during pregnancy, the worst thing may be an incorrect fetal position. If the fetus is not positioned correctly in the mother's body, there is a considerable risk for future vaginal delivery, and the kidneys are a preferred method of delivery by doctors. So, what methods can be used to correct an incorrect fetal position?
1. If the fetal position is not correct, you can try to correct it
Before 28 weeks of pregnancy, if the fetal position is found to be incorrect, there is no need to worry. Generally, there is a possibility of the fetus automatically shifting to the head position before and after delivery. However, if the pregnant mother can do some exercises to correct the fetal position, it will be of greater help. This can help the fetal buttocks withdraw from the pelvic cavity earlier, greatly increasing the chance of the fetal head shifting to the head position.
2. Chest and knee position: This movement can also be done by pregnant mothers at home
1. Before doing exercises, pregnant mothers need to go to the bathroom first, never hold their urine, and relax their waistband to kneel on the wooden floor. Of course, such wooden boards must be covered with moderately soft and hard cushions.
2. Stretch your forearms forward, keep your chest close to the bed surface, and lift your hips up a little so that your thighs and calves can form a right angle.
3. Do it twice a day, 3-5 minutes each time
3. External inversion technique: This requires professional skills
After 30 weeks of pregnancy, if a pregnant woman still has an incorrect fetal position, she can go to the hospital to find a professional doctor. Generally, skilled doctors can push the pregnant woman's abdomen with their hands to reverse the fetus. However, this method requires a strong professional approach, and pregnant mothers should not blindly do it at home.
