For expectant mothers, childbirth is also a difficult task, and for some, they can only have a vaginal delivery, while others can have a cesarean section, but in most cases, expectant mothers are unaware of it. Pregnant mothers must popularize some common knowledge about childbirth to avoid being flustered during delivery. So, will the recovery of the uterus be slow during the third cesarean section?
The recovery of the uterus after the third cesarean section will be slow, and it takes at least 4 to 6 weeks of rest after the cesarean section for the uterus to recover initially. Due to the large surgical incision, the epidermal wound can heal within 5 to 7 days after surgery, but complete recovery takes at least 4 to 6 weeks. It is recommended that mothers pay more attention to rest and avoid doing strenuous exercise.
After giving birth, the female uterus must contract continuously and rhythmically to gradually expel lochia from the body through contractions. When able to move, one should exercise more and improve blood circulation. Within 8-24 hours after surgery, with the assistance of family members, one should try to get out of bed. In addition, to promote rapid recovery of the uterus, it is advisable to avoid prolonged lying down and try to lie sideways.
It is recommended that expectant mothers make more preparations before giving birth, and not overly fixate on whether it is a vaginal delivery or a cesarean section. In short, both the mother and the child can be safe and healthy, and whichever method of delivery is feasible depends on the specific situation of the pregnant woman during delivery. Pregnant mothers should maintain a positive attitude and not be too nervous.
