Are babies born by caesarean section really not as smart as those born vaginally? You will know how good a natural birth is when you see it

Many mothers are confused before giving birth whether it is better to have a vaginal birth or a caesarean section. After giving birth, I kept comparing the differences between babies born by natural birth and babies born by caesarean section. Just now, Doudehui also saw a mother in the group asking, \”Doudehui, I had a caesarean section. I would like to ask if there are any things that need to be paid attention to in the care of babies born by caesarean section? My mother has always said that children born by caesarean section are not as smart as those born by natural birth. , did you say that?” OK~ Today we will learn about the differences between babies born by natural birth and babies born by caesarean section! But before that, let’s first learn the differences between normal delivery and caesarean section ~ Natural delivery & caesarean section 1. Cesarean section will not experience uterine contractions. Before giving birth, the mother’s uterus will have regular paroxysmal contractions. This contraction will cause The baby\’s thorax is relatively compressed and expanded, and alveolar expansion can promote fetal lung maturity and facilitate the establishment of active breathing after birth. 2. Mothers who choose to give birth naturally without birth canal compression during caesarean section can increase the excitability of the respiratory center of the brain through regular uterine contractions and the squeezing effect when passing through the birth canal, and can squeeze out the amniotic fluid and mucus in the fetal respiratory tract. , greatly reducing the occurrence of neonatal complications such as wet lung and aspiration pneumonia. 3. Exposure to more beneficial flora during normal delivery. During the process of normal delivery, the baby can be more exposed to the beneficial flora of the mother\’s vagina when passing through the vagina. More immune substances in the mother\’s body can enter the fetal body, which helps immunity. System development and maturity. What is the difference between a baby born by caesarean section and a baby born vaginally? Because the labor process does not experience uterine contractions and the birth canal is not squeezed during delivery, compared with babies born by vaginal delivery: 1. Babies born by caesarean section have three conditions: respiratory system (related to lung function), digestive system (related to intestinal flora), and immune system. There will be some deficiencies in all aspects, so babies born by caesarean section need more care. 2. There is no significant difference in physical development between babies born by caesarean section and those born vaginally. The physical growth and development of a baby after birth is first affected by genetic factors. Adequate and reasonable nutritional intake, good environmental sanitation conditions, meticulous care, exercise, etc. can all promote the baby\’s growth and development. 3. There is no difference in intelligence between babies born by caesarean section and babies born vaginally! Some parents say that babies born by caesarean section are dumber than babies born vaginally. Obviously, this statement has no scientific basis! Although there is no difference between babies born by caesarean section and babies delivered vaginally in the Child Classroom, pregnant women are prone to blood pressure drops during caesarean section during anesthesia. When blood pressure drops by more than 1/3 of the basic value, the blood flow to the uterus and placenta can be reduced, leading to fetal hypoxia and Acidosis. Therefore, caesarean section will increase the risk of hypoxia and suffocation in newborns, causing brain damage, thereby affecting the baby\’s brain function. How to care for a baby born by caesarean section? Although babies born by caesarean section will have deficiencies in the respiratory system, digestive system, and immune system, mothers can rest assured that as long as the mothers take proper care of them, babies born by caesarean section can still grow up healthily! Then during the nursing process, just do the following three points: 1. Try to insist on breastfeeding. Breast milk is rich in lactoferrin, which is the main source of the baby\’s core immune protein and can greatly improve the body immunity of babies born by caesarean section. In addition, breast milk also has small protein molecules,It has good digestion and absorption properties and is very suitable for the immature digestive system of babies born by caesarean section. Note: Mothers who have had a caesarean section often have breast milk one or two days later than women who have had a vaginal delivery. However, mothers do not need to worry too much. Babies born at full term have already been born with enough nutrients and energy. It is not a problem to go without milk for a day or two. What the mother has to do is to let the baby suck milk hard to stimulate milk secretion. 2. Choose targeted milk powder when breast milk is not enough. If breast milk is not enough, or you really cannot breastfeed for some reason, it is best for mothers to choose targeted milk powder. ① Check whether the formula is close to breast milk? The ratio of whey protein to casein in breast milk is 60:40. Whey protein is easy to digest and will not burden the baby\’s immature stomach. ②Check whether the milk powder contains lactoferrin? Babies born by caesarean section have weak lung function and are prone to bacterial infection, which can lead to respiratory diseases such as pneumonia. Lactoferrin has antibacterial and bacteriostatic effects, can prevent babies from being invaded by harmful bacteria, and plays a very positive role in protecting the lung health of babies born by caesarean section. ③Does it contain a variety of prebiotics and active Bifidobacterium lactis? The scientific combination of prebiotics and high content of active Bifidobacterium lactis can help babies quickly establish a balance of intestinal flora, which plays a very important role in baby\’s intestinal health. Now in China, there are formula milk powder specially designed to meet the nutritional needs of caesarean section babies, which can improve the immunity of caesarean section babies and greatly reduce the incidence of respiratory diseases. 3. Strengthen coordination training to help babies born by self-caesarean section not experience the squeeze of the birth canal when they are born, and lack the experience and learning of touch and self-feeling for the first time in their lives. Although the lack of this kind of experience will not affect the child\’s IQ, it can easily cause children to have problems such as emotional sensitivity and distraction. Therefore, parents need to train the baby more. In the first three months after the baby is born, the baby\’s brain balance ability can be initially exercised; when the baby is seven or eight months old, let him/her turn over and roll more. , crawling, etc. to exercise their hand and foot coordination; when the baby gets older, you can let him/her do more games such as walking on the balance beam, swinging, and merry-go-round. Mothers in the Love Child Classroom can also let their babies learn about themselves through tactile training. Babies under one year old should be touched and massaged from birth (for specific methods, click ☞[Touch Tutorial] to learn), so that the baby\’s skin can be stimulated in all directions and the touch will be more sensitive. Babies born by cesarean section may be more emotionally sensitive. They are smart, naughty, and easily nervous. They need more patience and care from their parents. If the baby makes a mistake, do not reprimand and punish them, but guide and correct them slowly. Which pregnant mothers should consider having a caesarean section? Here, Doudehui has a few words to say to pregnant mothers who have not yet given birth. Cesarean section is a passive measure to deal with difficult labor and pregnancy complications. However, many pregnant mothers make up their mind to have a caesarean section early because they are afraid of pain and worry that they will not be able to bear the pain of childbirth, or because of superstition, they seek out a \”master\” to calculate a so-called If the \”auspicious time\” comes, give up natural childbirth and choose caesarean section. Mr. Xiaokang advises everyone to choose the mode of birth carefully and not to be overly afraid of natural childbirth to ensure thatPhysical and mental health for mothers and babies! Of course, if the pregnant mother and the fetus have the following conditions, they need to follow the doctor’s advice and consider choosing a caesarean section. Such as: ① threatened uterine rupture. ② Prepartum hemorrhage; such as placental abruption and placenta previa. ③Special lesions or deformities in the vagina, soft birth canal, pelvis, and cervix. ④Abnormal fetal position; such as transverse position and breech position. ⑤ Elderly primiparous women (over 35 years old). ⑥Scarred uterus. ⑦The pelvis is obviously narrow or deformed. ⑧ Pregnancy complications or serious complications, such as pregnancy complicated by serious heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease, etc. ⑨Those who have had genital tract fistula repair or old third-degree perineal tear repair, or have reproductive organ deformities. If the fetus has the following conditions, it is recommended to have a caesarean section, such as: ① intrauterine hypoxia; ② macrosomia; ③ umbilical cord prolapse: the fetal heart rate is still good, and it is estimated that the fetus can survive, but vaginal delivery is not possible in a short time. Doudehui said: Expectant mothers should have a general understanding of when to have a caesarean section or under what circumstances they should choose a caesarean section. However, it would be best if the delivery can be smooth ~ this is good for both the baby and the pregnant woman! If a pregnant mother has special circumstances and must have a caesarean section, for the health of herself and her baby, she should listen to the doctor\’s advice before deciding whether to have a caesarean section.
