The cervix needs preparation before childbirth, especially if the ultrasound machine captures a large mass of the fetus. Women who give birth for the first time also need preparation for childbirth. All exercises or medications can only be used after consulting a doctor. During pregnancy with a complicated course, you should refrain from additional funds. In this case, during childbirth, the doctor will deliver an injection that will open the cervix without consequences for the baby and mother.
Instructions
Step 1
Unprotected sex perfectly prepares the cervix for childbirth. They need to be dealt with regularly from the 36th week of pregnancy. The semen contains substances that soften the neck, and mechanical action makes it more elastic. But even here it is impossible not to remember the contraindications, if the doctor has forbidden having sex, then this cannot be done. Sex can provoke premature labor, especially if the cervix is slightly open. Normally, the cervix opens slightly by this time, but only its outer part, the uterine vault, remains closed until the onset of contractions.
Step 2
Evening primrose oil prepares the cervix well for childbirth. You need to take the drug as directed by your doctor. Average doses are: from 34 weeks - 1 capsule per day, from 36 weeks - 2 capsules of the drug, from 39 weeks of pregnancy - 3 capsules per day. The drug can cause allergic reactions and provoke premature birth with any deviations during pregnancy.
Step 3
You can squat on your haunches, this will strengthen not only the cervix, but also the walls of the vagina, which also need preparation. You need to start for 2 minutes three times a day, gradually increasing the time to 15 minutes. The exercise can be done with the normal position of the uterine fundus, but if it sags, then you should not experiment.
Step 4
To prepare the cervix for childbirth, vaginal suppositories with kelp are placed. Laminaria or seaweed stimulates collagen production, makes tissues more elastic. You need to take the drug depending on the timing of pregnancy and the manufacturer of the suppositories. Doses are indicated in the annotation, but self-medication is still not worth it.
Step 5
Antispasmodics are prescribed to relieve spasms. They are usually taken at the very end of pregnancy, a few weeks before the expected date of birth. Most often, the drug "No-shpa" is prescribed, but depending on the specific situation, another may be prescribed.
Step 6
In some cases, hormonal drugs are administered to patients with an "immature" cervix. Usually, the course of treatment is prescribed after the Bishop maturity test, which has a scale from 0 to 4. Depending on the result, appropriate treatment is prescribed. In any case, during childbirth, doctors completely control the condition of the woman in labor and, in extreme cases, if the cervix does not open well enough, they will perform an emergency caesarean section.
Step 7
You can sign up for childbirth preparation courses. All exercises that are performed during classes prepare the expectant mother for the birth of a baby, strengthen muscles and improve the course of pregnancy.
