Nowadays, young parents-to-be dream of having a pair of twins, preferably dragon and phoenix babies, so that the babies will have playmates in the mother’s womb and bring double joy to the family after birth. If you have been lucky enough to be pregnant with twin babies, it’s even more important to pay double attention to your own health and that of your babies, and consult your doctor more often. So, what should you pay attention to during labor and delivery? 1, prevent miscarriage and preterm delivery Twin pregnancy by the uterine cavity is relatively narrow placenta blood circulation obstacles, the incidence of miscarriage is higher than a single pregnancy 2-3 times, so you should strengthen the pregnancy protection and monitoring. If a stillbirth occurs, the other fetus can still continue to grow and develop, the dead fetus will be absorbed or extruded into a paper-like child with the delivery of a normal fetus, there is no need to worry about fear, and do not induce labor to terminate the pregnancy. The uterus of a pregnant woman with a twin-fetus pregnancy is significantly larger than that of a single fetus, and the growth rate is faster, especially after 24 weeks, especially rapid. This not only increases the burden on the pregnant woman’s body, but also produces symptoms of pressure such as panic, dyspnea, swelling of the lower limbs and varicose veins due to the pressure on the heart, lungs and the inferior vena cava, which is more pronounced in the late stages of pregnancy. Therefore, in late pregnancy, pregnant women should pay special attention to avoid exertion, more bed rest, which is to reduce the symptoms of compression, increase the blood flow of the uterus, to prevent preterm labor are good. In addition, due to the uterus over-expansion caused by twin fetuses, it is often difficult to maintain to full-term and early delivery. Therefore, it is best to hospitalize pregnant women with twin fetuses in advance to ensure safe and smooth delivery. 2, pay attention to prenatal hemorrhage twin pregnancy is prone to placenta praevia. This is a kind of painless bleeding caused by detachment of the placenta from the uterine lining in the late stage of pregnancy, so some pregnant women bleed a lot in their sleep without being rescued. The condition is usually progressive, starting with a small amount of bleeding that stops for a few days before increasing and finally hemorrhaging. Therefore, those who have a history of small amount of bleeding, pregnant women themselves and their husbands should always pay attention to prevent accidents. 3. It is best to opt for a cesarean section If you expect to have multiples, then you will need a cesarean section. This is the safest and easiest way for multiple births. The birth of twins doesn’t need to be any different than the birth of singletons – most twin births are straightforward, problem-free, and no more painful than having just one. That said, multiple births do have a higher incidence of other interventions, and there is a higher risk of preterm labor and small size, and having to spend time on special care. Cesarean sections are usually more likely because one or both babies are in a less than ideal birth position. In the case of a double cephalic position, a transvaginal delivery is possible, but there is a possibility of a neglected transverse position for the second fetus. Other fetal positions are best avoided for trial of labor. Twin pregnancies are high-risk pregnancies and there is a lot to be aware of. Increase regular prenatal checkups and listen to your doctor’s advice more often. Delivering twins may result in a cesarean section if one or both babies are delivered breech (buttocks or feet first). Sometimes, when the first baby is born, the second baby turns around into a breech delivery. One of the babies hit the horizontal lying in the uterus (lateral position) – if this is the twin lying on the bottom, you will definitively need a c-section. 4.To have enough rest time after delivery Generally, you should have bed rest for about 3 days after delivery, and then gradually increase the activity time and activity according to the recovery of your physique. The vaginal bleeding is more after delivery for those who are pregnant with twin babies, so it is more important to pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva, except that it should be washed with warm water 1~2 times a day, and it is absolutely forbidden to have sexual intercourse. Since the uterus is too large during pregnancy and the uterus recovers slowly, the chest and knee position can be started after two weeks to help the uterus return to its original position and prevent the uterus from tilting back or prolapsing.
