Let’s take a look at the suggestions of Deng Xiaohong, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, counselor of the State Council, and chief physician of Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital.

\”After the two-child policy is relaxed, those born in the 1970s and a few born in the 1980s will enter the birth force. In the past, obstetrics departments called the elderly primiparous women, and those over 35 years old were called primiparas.\” There will be more complications, so it is recommended to give birth before the age of 35. First child. Deng Xiaohong said that if it is a second child, it is not as high as that of first-time mothers. Relatively speaking, it does not have as many risks as first-time mothers.

Chronic diseases in our country are getting younger, such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, etc. People in their 30s and 40s will also get them, which will bring certain potential risks to pregnancy and childbirth. childbirth. \”So, women who plan to have a second child must have a physical examination before pregnancy, just like a pre-marital examination and a pre-pregnancy check-up.\” Deng Xiaohong suggested.

After the examination, if there are no contraindications to pregnancy, the doctor will guide you on how to conceive a healthy baby. If there are any diseases that are not suitable for pregnancy, they should be treated and adjusted in time. Therefore, before planning to conceive, you must have an obstetrics and gynecology examination to fully understand your physical condition to determine whether you are suitable for pregnancy.

When it comes to the topic of cesarean section, Deng Xiaohong said that China\’s cesarean section rate is very high and is second to none in the world. The reason for this phenomenon is not just a problem for doctors, but also for patients. Many people now ask doctors to cut off the baby before the natural delivery date after choosing a delivery date. There are also some mothers who are giving birth to their first child. Their bodies are very delicate and they find it too painful to give birth, so they ask the doctor for a caesarean section.

\”Over the years, we have found that when people with a history of cesarean section give birth to their second child, sometimes the placenta just covers the original cesarean section incision, causing secondary scar dehiscence, bleeding, and placenta implantation. These complications are very scary.\” Deng Xiaohong particularly emphasized that if a woman plans to have a second child, she must not artificially choose a cesarean section.
