In Ukraine, more and more often they give birth at home, but there are three problems at once, with which only qualified doctors will help a woman in labor.
Bleeding
The main complication during childbirth is bleeding.It occurs not only in the process, but also after the birth of a child.
Most often, bleeding is associated with placental abruption or placental presentation. And if everything is predictable with presentation, it is diagnosed during an ultrasound scan, then placental abruption occurs sharply and unexpectedly. In 20% of cases, the bleeding is insignificant, but there is a danger for the child, the detachment of half of the placenta threatens the baby with death due to the cessation of nutrition.
If a woman gives birth at home and no one monitors the baby's heartbeat, the complication can lead to the loss of both the woman in labor and the baby.
Problems with the child
Many maternity hospitals are equipped with fetal heart monitors, which record the baby's heartbeat with the ability to record.
This allows not only to monitor the baby's condition online, but also to understand at what stage his condition has worsened.
During childbirth
It also happens that a woman in labor suffers from dystocia of the shoulders of the child. It turns out that the head of the child has already been born, but the shoulders have not. This happens if the child is large, respectively, the circumference of his shoulders is greater than the circumference of his head. With dystocia, the child may suffocate.Doctors know how to act in this case: in case of dystocia, at least two people are involved in the work, they must act harmoniously.
The midwife at home cannot help in any way.
