What should I pay attention to when having a caesarean section for the second child?

For a woman, there are many things to pay attention to when getting pregnant for the second time. Caesarean section has become a common form of childbirth. What should you pay attention to after the second caesarean section so that your body can recover faster? Let's take a look at these precautions below.

1. When preparing to get pregnant, be sure to go to the hospital to check the recovery of the uterus to prevent the female uterus from being damaged again.

2. Pay attention to fetal movement. Fetal movement is the irregular movement of the fetus in the uterus. The speed of fetal movement is one of the early manifestations of the fetus's safety in the uterus. Generally, during pregnancy, there should be 3 to 5 fetal movements per hour or at least 10 times a day (12 hours). After a caesarean section, if the scarred uterus has a slight rupture or placental abnormalities, it will lead to fetal death. At this time, the fetal heart sounds disappear. 24 to 48 hours before fetal death, fetal movement slows down or disappears. Therefore, paying attention to changes in fetal movements can help detect fetal abnormalities in advance so that timely measures can be taken.

3. It is advisable to be hospitalized in advance to prepare for delivery. The closer the scarred uterus is to delivery, the greater the risk of rupture. To prevent uterine rupture or fetal death, hospitalization should be done two weeks in advance to detect

Problems are dealt with in a timely manner.

4. Prevent abdominal compression in late pregnancy. To prevent the scar from cracking, it must be protected and not squeezed. In daily life during the late stages of pregnancy, you should avoid crowded places when riding in a car or walking, do housework appropriately, sleep on your back or side, and have a moderate sexual life to avoid pressure on your abdomen.

5. Seek medical attention as soon as possible if abdominal pain occurs. Some scarred uteri may rupture spontaneously in the late stages of pregnancy, with abdominal pain being the main symptom. As the uterine scar heals poorly during pregnancy, the intrauterine pressure increases. Even without any inducement, the uterus may swell and rupture from the scar. When the uterus ruptures, abdominal pain of varying severity may occur. Sometimes the abdominal pain is mild but the uterus has already ruptured, so you must be vigilant.

6. When a caesarean section is performed again, tubal ligation should be performed. A person can only perform a caesarean section twice. To ensure the mother's health, tubal ligation is performed at the same time as the second caesarean section to achieve the purpose of sterilization.

The above are some things you should pay attention to when having a cesarean section for your second child. Giving birth is risky. Bleeding usually occurs after a cesarean section, so you must pay enough attention to it to ensure your health. After the operation, eat more fruits and vegetables, and eat more foods that help your body recover, which will be of great help to your body.
