Cutting the umbilical cord for newborns can involve dads.
The important sign of the birth of a newborn into the world is not the cry that comes out on its own, but before that loud cry, the doctor needs to cut the umbilical cord connecting the baby and the mother, and the child truly becomes an independent individual.
Moreover, at present, many hospitals have opened the service of cutting the umbilical cord for fathers, which can allow fathers to participate in this sacred time, which will bring the distance and relationship between fathers and babies closer.
I can't get my hands on it, how painful is their mother and son!
Since Xiao Wang became pregnant, he found a private hospital to undergo relevant examinations, and the reason why he chose a private hospital was that on the one hand, he felt that the service attitude of the private hospital was good, and on the other hand, the doctor told him that his husband could accompany and participate in it during childbirth.
In this way, without saying a word by yourself, you can let your husband feel the pain he has suffered, and with his husband's company, he must be more courageous, there is nothing to fear.
Therefore, Xiao Wang has also been passing on this idea to her husband, letting him learn more skills in his daily life, and when he gives birth, he will do the strongest support, so as not to go to the delivery room, like a waste, nothing can help.
The husband studied according to Xiao Wang's instructions, after all, for this child, he is also very attentive, and he can like other people's children on weekdays, let alone his own baby!
But just when the day of Xiao Wang's real birth came, her husband instigated it, and the doctor asked her husband to take scissors to cut the umbilical cord and take pictures of them. The husband was next to him and said, "I can't get my hands on it!" This scissors go down, how much pain their mother and son have!
Does the baby really hurt when cutting the umbilical cord?
There are not a few people like Xiao Wang's husband who think so, because they do not know enough about the structure and structure of the relevant tissues, they will use the similar experience they have accumulated to think about the transfer, they will feel that when cutting the umbilical cord, it is as painful as cutting the skin, whether it is a child or a mother, it will be very painful.
Thus, when really facing this matter, there is a situation of not being able to get down and withdrawing, thus delaying the best time to cut the umbilical cord, and invisibly hurting the child and the mother.
In fact, the structure of the umbilical cord is very simple, there are only three blood vessels, two veins and one artery. Unlike the blood vessels elsewhere in our body, these three blood vessels exist independently in the umbilical cord, with no other nerve wrapping.
When we draw blood or prick a drip, we feel a stinging pain because the pain nerves in the skin are stimulated and sent to the brain. And there is no pain nerve in the umbilical cord, naturally there will be no pain.
Therefore, whether it is a baby or a mother, there will be no discomfort due to cutting the umbilical cord, and the mother who has just given birth will feel more exhausted than painful.
How do newborns cut their umbilical cords?
We can view the relevant umbilical cord cutting videos on the Internet, some are teaching science videos, some are documentaries, truly record the whole process of ordinary maternal childbirth, of which for the umbilical cord cutting this link, it is easy to make people have an illusion of unconsciousness.
So that when they let Bao Dad experience it himself, they will retreat, afraid that they will make a mistake if they are negligent for a while, after all, everything that manages the child is not to be underestimated.
Different doctors will also treat according to their own handling habits, sterilizing and squeezing out the remaining blood in two different places. However, there are many poor areas that do not have a good treatment of the umbilical cord in the delivery environment, must not be as exquisite as now, or is it not also a healthy growth?
Although such an explanation is somewhat strong, but after all, there will be some health risks, to know that after the umbilical cord falls off, it will become a navel, if it is infected or unsightly, it will affect the development of the child's life! So parents are still sloppy.
Alpaca mom has something to say:
