Pregnant women in the late stages of pregnancy, as long as they meet the conditions for vaginal delivery, doctors will recommend vaginal delivery. Even if some pregnant women request a caesarean section due to fear of vaginal delivery requiring a side cut or tearing, doctors usually advise them to have a vaginal delivery. If the pregnant woman does not cooperate, a caesarean section will be performed. So, why do doctors recommend vaginal delivery?
1. Children born through vaginal delivery are smarter: vaginal delivery is a natural instinct of humans, and during the process, the fetus will be squeezed through the vagina to expel water from the lungs, thereby preventing the fetus from developing lung diseases. Therefore, children born through vaginal delivery are healthier and have a higher chance of giving birth to smart babies.
2. Fast postpartum recovery: After a vaginal delivery, the mother can get out of bed on the same day and usually be discharged within 3 days, and her body recovers relatively quickly. However, after a cesarean section, she can only get out of bed on the second day, and the wound will be painful, and it takes a month for her body to recover.
3. Less complications during vaginal delivery: Children born naturally are less likely to experience complications, and they can conceive quickly after vaginal delivery. However, there are more complications associated with cesarean section, and it takes at least one year for the mother to become pregnant. Otherwise, it is not only easy to cause miscarriage, but also prone to heavy bleeding.
4. Low cost of vaginal delivery: As a natural delivery, vaginal delivery is much cheaper than cesarean section, saving at least 5000-6000 yuan in costs. Although most families nowadays do not care about this amount of money, it is also a significant expense for families with poor conditions.
