CASE PRESENTATION
NORMAL SPONTANEOUS DELIVER CIL RMLE II
Normal vaginal birth is the childbirth process which takes place without any form of medical intervention. Nowadays to alleviate the pain and speed up the delivery process medications might be used (you can
choose not to opt for any medical intervention). All in all, a normal delivery is, in other words, a completely natural delivery of a baby by the mother without any medical intervention. During normal/vaginal
delivery the primary focus is on how and in which position will the mother be comfortable delivering the baby. The mother can lead the whole process of labor and delivery. The doctor and attending nurses, aid
her while being alert for any kind of emergencies.
There are three major stages you will undergo during normal childbirth:
This is the first stage of the normal delivery process and of labor. For the baby to be born, the cervix needs to become malleable, soften and stretch so that the baby can be delivered. This first stage can last for up
to 13 hours for a woman who is delivering a baby for the first time, and for seven to eight hours for a second or third child. Contractions occur which helps to dilate the cervix.
Early labor: The cervix of the expectant mother opens to about 4 centimeters. You will probably spend most of the early labor at home. At this stage, the expectant mother can continue to perform her
usual activities, relax often, drink plenty of clear fluids, eat light meals whilst keeping keep track of the contractions. With time the contractions grow stronger and when the expectant mother gets more
frequent and stronger contractions and is not able to talk during contractions, it means she has moved to the stage of active labor.
Active labor: At this stage, the cervix of the expectant mother may open from 4 to 7 centimeters. This is the stage when the mother should be taken to the hospital. The contractions occur every 3 to 4
minutes and each of them lasts for about 60 seconds. These contractions show that the cervix is opening faster (about 1 centimeter per hour). As the labor progresses, the water may break causing a gush of
fluid. Once the water breaks, the contractions speed up. The expectant mother at this stage needs to relax. She can change positions, receive gentle massages or hot and cold compresses, walk slowly or sit
upright all of which will help. Relaxing in between the contractions is very important as it will help the cervix to widen. The expectant mother can also soak herself in a tub which will ease the discomfort.
Transitioning to the second stage: The cervix at this stage opens from 7 to 10 cms. This is the most painful and stressful part of the labor for most women as the cervix widens up to its fullest. The
contractions occur every two to three minutes and last for up to 60 to 90 seconds. The mother at this stage may feel a strong urge to push because she feels the pressure in the rectal area and stinging in the
vaginal area, as the baby's head slowly moves down toward the vaginal opening. But she should not push at this stage and wait for her health caregiver to give the go-ahead to start pushing. The health
caregiver will give the signal once the cervix is fully dilated. The expectant mother may feel fatigued, irritated, nauseous and alternately hot or cold. Slow and relaxed breathing is highly effective during
this period.
2. Pushing & birth of the baby
Once the cervix completely widens or dilates the second stage of labor begins. The contractions at this stage continue to be strong, though they often come farther apart.
The frequent contractions help to push the baby down head first through the birth canal. The expectant mother’s health care provider may ask her to push with every contraction. The mother will feel an intense
pressure similar to the urge while undergoing a bowel movement.
The mother may feel highly irritated at this stage and may alternate between wanting to be touched/soothed or being left alone. She will be highly fatigued and may also feel nauseous. The intensity at the end of
the first stage of labor will continue in this pushing phase.
The mother may experience intense pain around the vagina and the surrounding pelvic areas as the baby's head protrudes through the vaginal opening. It is at this stage that the attending doctor may decide to
perform an episiotomy, i.e. an incision made in the area between the vagina and the rectum to widen the vaginal opening so that the baby can emerge smoothly if required. The mother may be asked to push gently
or slowly as the rest of your baby's head and body emerge, till the baby finally emerges into this world.
After the birth of the baby, the contractions continue to push out the placenta, a process also known as the afterbirth. The delivery of the placenta can take from a few minutes to a half hour after the baby is born.
The healthcare provider may ask the mother to place the baby on her breast, as this stimulates uterine contractions. Alternatively, the healthcare attendant may gently massage the new mother’s abdomen to help
stimulate placental separation.
Most babies are ready to nurse a few minutes immediately after birth while others may take a little longer. Healthcare providers usually ask the mother to nurse the child as soon as possible after birth, provided the
mother is willing to breastfeed.
Nursing right after birth also helps the uterus to contract and so decrease the amount of bleeding.
What are the risks of normal vaginal delivery?
The risks a mother may face before and during the normal vaginal delivery include:
The risks a mother may face after a normal vaginal delivery include:
damage to the pelvic floor due to which the woman may suffer from temporary or chronic pelvic pain
pelvic organ prolapsed which occurs when the bladder, uterus and/or rectum protrude into the vagina or outside the vaginal opening
retained placenta
urinary leakage with sudden coughing, sneezing, or laughing post delivery
postpartum hemorrhage
anesthesia (if used) related complications
What to expect during the postpartum recovery period after a normal vaginal delivery?
After a normal delivery, you may face a few issues which will need some care such as:
Vaginal discharge and bleeding: When bleeding, expect a heavy bright red flow for the first few days after the delivery as it happens during the monthly periods. It then slowly tapers off becoming pink
or brown or yellow or white. You need to immediately call your doctor if you have a fever or are bleeding too much and changing the sanitary pads every hour or you are passing big blood clots.
Vaginal soreness: If you had a vaginal tear during delivery the wound may hurt for up to six weeks, though if the tearing was severe it could take more time than that to heal. While sitting down it can be
painful, so you can use a pillow or a doughnut cushion that helps you to sit down with any pressure on the perineum.
You can place an ice pad between the sanitary napkin and the wound which will provide some relief from the pain.
Make sure you take your painkillers and stool softeners so that as recommended by your doctor.
Pain while urinating or having bowel movements: As the tissue around your bladder and urethra may be swollen or bruised, you may find it painful to urinate. Doing Kegel exercises during this period
with doctor’s advice will help. It will tone your pelvic muscles.
Further, you could also have constipation since you could be taking iron supplements which are prescribed by the doctor to get your blood count up. Make sure you take the stool softeners prescribed by
the doctor. Also, drink plenty of water, 8-10 glasses per day to make up for the dehydration breastfeeding may cause, and add high-fiber foods to your regular diet.
If you notice very painful bowel movements you may also have hemorrhoids. To get relief from hemorrhoidsyou can soak the lower part of your body in a tub of warm water. You may also be prescribed
some topical medication by the doctor to apply in the affected area.
Contractions: Also known as after pains, contractions may occur for a few days immediately after delivery. These contractions are actually good in a way as it means your uterus is shrinking back into
size and the blood vessels are being compressed preventing excessive bleeding. Contractions can especially occur when you are nursing your baby.
Hair loss: The rise in hormones during pregnancy keeps you from losing your hair. After childbirth, as the hormones return to normal levels it causes the hair to fall out and return to the normal hair fall
and growth cycle. The normal hair loss that was delayed during pregnancy may fall out all at once after delivery.
Mood changes: After childbirth, it is normal for the new mother to undergo frequent mood changes such as irritation, frustration, anxiety etc. Many new moms also undergo what is known as postpartum
depression. If the depression deepens the mother may need prompt therapeutic help in the form of psychological counseling.
In a Medio lateral episiotomy, the incision begins in the middle of the vaginal opening and extends down toward the buttocks at a 45-degree angle. The primary advantage of a mediolateral episiotomy is that the
risk for anal muscle tears is much lower. However, there is much more disadvantages associated with this type of episiotomy, including:
difficult repair
