Go to hospital to continue pregnancy
Pregnancy comes and the world around you changes! What was catastrophically important yesterday is fading into the background today. A woman begins to listen to herself and her body. And then it starts - it stings here, then it tugs there, then itches here... And it makes you sleepy, and your head is dizzy, and the smells are not the same, and the food is disgusting, and there are tears in three streams... And if the pregnancy is long-awaited and the first, any “hic” “causes fear for the child’s condition.
But there are factors that you can’t get away from and you need to go to the doctors! The earlier the better! If you experience unpleasant sensations, constant pain, discharge, fainting, there is no need to rest at home! There is a risk of losing your child!
When a woman is in early pregnancy and is not registered, her child is her responsibility . Unfortunately, until 12 weeks, doctors are not responsible if a miscarriage occurs. After passing all the tests and conducting the first screening, they will begin to lead you by the hand. Until you get through the first trimester, save yourself as best you can.
I learned such an unpleasant truth when I was 6 weeks pregnant. When suddenly there was spotting and not a single doctor wanted to see me. They sent me for an ultrasound to another hospital, to an ambulance (where, by the way, they didn’t take me either - the doctor said, “What makes you think that you’re pregnant?”, and, citing the occupancy of beds, sent me home). I went to where I would be accepted - to a paid clinic. There, sobbing, she talked about her lamentations. The doctor explained to me about the sacred date “12 weeks”, and that only I am responsible for my condition. She prescribed treatment, which I performed at home.
When I was in hospital at 20 weeks, there were girls in the room with me at 7, 8, 11 weeks. They arrived by ambulance. And they did not sign a statement of voluntary refusal of treatment. That's why,
WHEN YOU ARRIVE TO A HOSPITAL WITH THE RISK OF LOSSING A CHILD, SAY THAT YOU ARE READY TO LYE IN THE CORRIDOR, IN THE AISLE, IN THE TOILET, BUT YOU WILL NOT REFUSE OBSERVATION! OR GO TO THE HEAD OF THE GYNECOLOGY DEPARTMENT.
Movement in position: what sports are useful during pregnancy?
To be honest, they didn’t want to take me even at 20 weeks. An ultrasound showed an alarming tone of the uterus, and the receiving doctor said that this was the norm for my age. And there are no free beds. I didn't leave. I was tired of writhing in pain and was very afraid for the baby. In the end they laid me down and a bed was found. They gave me IVs and injections, and my condition improved.
During pregnancy, all “sores” worsen. Your gynecologist will monitor your tests, and if he thinks that you need to be kept in hospital (for no apparent reason to you) - do not resist! Even harmless protein in the urine can turn out to be a threatening gestosis.
During pregnancy, girls are not only hospitalized with tension, although this is the most common reason. This also includes problems with the kidneys, thyroid gland, blood pressure, diabetes, gynecological diseases, etc.
Even before pregnancy, I listened and re-read several popular gynecologists, obstetricians and other doctors. Their main principle is less intervention, better results. There were opponents of ultrasound, hormones, pills and other devices and drugs. Maximum naturalness. And I thought I would follow them religiously.
But for me the pregnancy did not go unnoticed. There were threats at the beginning of pregnancy, then tone in the middle, after which I fainted, swelled and in the end I risked giving birth prematurely. And I “forgotten” everything I had heard before. I may have taken hormones, but I saved the child! Let them scan me when it was necessary and when it was not necessary, but I saved the child! They may have given me injections and IVs, but I SAVED THE CHILD! I am grateful to all the doctors who helped me with this!
If you are an expectant mother, think about whether it’s worth lying around and waiting for “it to go away on its own,” because it’s not about you alone? For any unpleasant symptoms, consult a doctor! Especially when the condition does not improve!
If you don't like the doctor, find ways and means to go to another one . I have friends who live in rural areas. And there is one gynecologist there. In her strange opinion, any complications at the beginning of pregnancy are the path to “cleansing”. How many tears were shed by the girls because even with small discharge, the doctor sent them for an abortion. Sometimes, changing doctors, you can go to the ends of the world - it’s worth it.
There is no need to be afraid of hospital walls. Yes, it's not a resort. And the beds are uncomfortable, and the toilets are dirty, and the bathrooms are scary, and the food is tasteless. But there are doctors who will take care of you. And there are girls you'll make friends with! Then you will remember the “laydown” as an adventure! You might stay in touch with some of them for the rest of your life!
And, most importantly, carry and give birth to the child. Isn't this what we think about throughout pregnancy?
Write in the comments, were you kept in hospitals for conservation? Do you think it’s worth going to bed or will it “go away on its own”?
Visit to the doctor, tests during pregnancy (first trimester)
Advice for those who are in custody.
May God grant everyone an easy and happy pregnancy, but if it turns out that you were put on preservation, then I hasten to share with you some observations and conclusions. (if I had known about them before I got there, it would have been much easier for me). You might find something useful. there are a lot of letters under the cut
So, before I was admitted to the hospital, I was threatened twice at doctor’s appointments in a paid clinic, but the doctor so calmly and quietly said: “Well, let’s write a threat,” she prescribed Utrozhestan and Magne, and I was completely calm . I took care of myself. Subconsciously I felt that I needed to lie down more (Oh, how hard it was for me to do this, living at that time with my mother-in-law, who was not happy with my lying down, what incredible efforts it took me to avoid daily conflicts, but I did not give up) Subconsciously I felt that I needed to lie down on back, raising my knees (later I read that this position helps better blood flow to the placenta and saturate it with oxygen).
And then, at 13 weeks, I was diagnosed with low placentation, my husband arrived, and we returned to our home. It feels good. There were problems with finances due to the move), once again I did not buy Femibion (which I have been drinking since the 4th week). Let me take a break, I think. so what we have:
-low placentation
-withdrawal of vitamins
-spring, vitamin deficiency
— I don’t eat meat (at that time) — which means low hemoglobin
I reached 17 weeks with a low placenta, a visit to the doctor was postponed for various reasons.
But I felt good, walked and enjoyed the early spring. Only my head was a little dizzy. On the day I went to the hospital, I actively cleaned the house, took a lukewarm bath (I shouldn’t do this, but I trusted my pregnant friend, who said that she splashes in the bathroom almost every day)
Closer to night, I went to the toilet and, forgetting that I was pregnant (and this happens when you feel good), decided to push. A blood clot came out of me, I was in panic, we immediately called an ambulance. I was taken to the local hospital Semashko (about which I had heard so many horrors), and there I spent another 2 hours bleeding in the waiting room!!! Because the doctors resuscitated the girl. We called our paid clinic (IDC), they said that hospitalization is only up to 12 weeks. It’s a pity that I didn’t know about Medgard….
Well, the doctor looked at me in the chair, my cervix was closed, they gave me a hemostatic agent and magnesium. I lay under IVs until the morning. There were no places in the wards. In the morning I was admitted to surgery. With three girls (also from gynecology). It was calm there, they came to change the IVs. But in the afternoon they decided to transfer us to gynecology (places became available) and so we ended up there.....
I was in a positive mood, the doctor said that, judging by the tests, the dynamics were good.
But I had never been in a hospital and was not ready for it.
So, let's move on to the tips:
1. “What should I do?” Lie! And just lie down! Only get up to go to the toilet and eat. Cups and dishes do not wash. if relatives come, it will not be difficult for them to do this for you. It's better to buy everything plastic.
There are active madams who communicate, even go home for the weekend (to wash), but I decided that all this did not matter and actively lay and sealed for all 10 days. And I didn’t care about anyone. One of these active girls, unfortunately, had severe abdominal pain upon discharge. I don’t know whether she stayed or not. But she really wanted to go to work.
2. "Visits".
Yes, everyone takes care of us, brings us goodies, it’s all great. but now, I understand that it would be better if I gave up visits. Firstly, you begin to feel embarrassed by the situation (if you have been to Semashko, you will understand. The neighboring wards are inhabited by gypsies and some strange characters from the most disadvantaged sections of society)
One day, my sister and her husband came to me. And I was just after a drip (magnesium), and I went with them into the corridor on the floor above, to sit and talk. I go down and feel it getting dark in my eyes. I say to my sister: “Hold me.” We safely got to the chair and already there I lost consciousness for 30 seconds. How the doctor on duty yelled at me. How scared I was.
That is, if they visit you, they should be those closest to you, and let them sit next to you on the bed. But be prepared for the fact that the whole chamber will listen to your conversations with interest. And after the relatives leave, they actively share their impressions about it.
3. Setting
Girls, I don’t want to scare you, hospitals are different everywhere. But in our department of operative gynecology at the hospital named after. Something terrible was happening to Semashko. Kripota... Hitchcock could come here for stories. There are not enough wards. In one ward they put both preserved women and those who came for an abortion and those who were sent for cleaning. many lie in the corridors. the operating room is nearby, you can hear people recovering from anesthesia, crying and delirious (this was the worst thing for me, I am a very impressionable person) ... and so on ...
so I highly recommend it to you
-bring headphones and lots of music! and never take them out of your ears!
- take earplugs (at night)
— take a laptop and download several seasons of different TV series.
- do not communicate with anyone, unless of course you like to discuss your sores and all sorts of horrors happening in the department.
— download cool, positive books (the book about Bob the Street Cat lifted my spirits, very positive
At the end of my “term,” a young, adequate girl was transferred to us, and so she always wore huge headphones and quietly giggled at the TV series she constantly watched. oh, how I regret that my husband didn’t bring me a laptop in the bustle and I heard and watched so much that one night my blood pressure rose to 150... and the lid began to blow off, I couldn’t sleep, I was dying, I wandered all night like a ghost walking through the shabby corridors and asked me to give me a sedative.
But the whole point is that I started to have some movements (I was in my 18th week) and the doctor on duty told me that it was EARLY for my first pregnancy and scared me that this was a pathology. (((so I didn’t sleep all night (my daughter was actively kicking), I thought something was wrong with my digestion... The next day I started to panic that I hadn’t slept and tried in vain to sleep, but there were 4 people in the room ...everything was useless...I just lay there and suffered...It was a terrible day. I had a panic attack...Maybe I was just tired of being in this environment, maybe I needed to go home for the day...According to the tests, everything was fine, in vain I just cheated and harmed myself and Lala ((
4. Doctors.
Based on the above: do not listen to the doctors on duty who do everything for show.
In general, this is all I remember for now. The main thing is to remain calm and positive. Our doctors are mostly wonderful. They need to erect a monument for what they do in such inhuman conditions. Think only about yourself and the baby, don’t pay attention if your roommates force you to communicate, teach you about life, talk about how cool it is to go home to wash and reproach you for not washing the dishes. It doesn't matter! It’s not your fault that these hospitals don’t even have a soul, that they don’t provide utensils. The main thing for you is to save the child. Be healthy! Have an easy pregnancy and childbirth.
P.S. I described everything in the same detail in the book of complaints and suggestions. After this, the girls were allowed to wash themselves in the enema room. Don't be afraid to talk about what doesn't suit you. All the best
