- Here's what you need to know!
- Nurse, what should I know about the changes in my body after childbirth?
- Maam you will experience involution, wherein yourreproductive organs return to their prepregnant state. Youmay develop perineal edema, lacerations, and episiotomy that may lead to discomfort and pain.
- After your baby is born, your breasts produce more colostrum, a milky liquid. Colostrum is a source of protein, vitamins, immunoglobulins, and other humoral components that gives infants an immune system protection.
- Whether you are lactating or not affects when your first menstrual period after delivery begins. In most situations, it will return by the sixth to eighth week after delivery if you decide not to breastfeed. The frequency and intensity of nursing as well as high serum prolactin levels affect how long an ovarian cycle lasts.
- How about my periods?
- Without the urge to urinate, your bladder will undoubtedly be swollen, hyperemic, and possibly overextended. You must void every three to four hours because once you return to your pre-pregnancy state, your risk of getting a urinary tract infection increases.
- A urine output of 3000 cc/day is not unusual during the first two weeks after delivery due to the brisk diuresis that occurs during this time. This is because the amount of fluid lost is typically equivalent to the amount of fluid retained throughout pregnancy.
- Due to intestinal ileus, evaporation of bodily fluids, flexibility of the abdominal wall, and hemorrhoids, you may experience flatulence or constipation. After giving birth, your progesterone and gastrin levels drop within 24 hours, and the symptoms of acid reflux and related symptoms go away within the following 3 to 4 days.
- In terms of your cardiovascular system, the contraction of the uterus causes an increase in circulating blood volume, and the relief of inferior vena cava obstruction causes an increase in preload. These two factors together cause an increase in stroke volume and heart rate, which results in a 60 to 80% increase in cardiac output. However, this increase quickly returns to pre-labor levels in 1 to 2 hours after delivery, and to pre-pregnancy levels in 2 weeks.
- Although there is a lot and there is actually more information, I hope you were able to gain some knowledge. It's critical that you are aware of these adjustments.
- Normally, the pigmentation on your skin would go away in 6 to 8 weeks. Your abdominal muscles are stretched too far during pregnancy and strained too much after labor. It takes about 6 to 8 weeks for them to slowly regain their usual tone and suppleness. You can have striae or stretch marks throughout your abdomen and legs, as well as divarication of the recti.
- Thank you so much nurse! All the information you shared was very helpful!
