Tunceli State Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Specialist Opr. Dr. Cahidenur Selveroğlu, referring to the benefits of normal birth for mother and baby, said that it is the healthiest to decide together with the physician how the birth process will end.
Tunceli State Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Specialist Opr. Dr. Cahidenur Selveroğlu made statements due to October 1-7 Normal Birth Week. Speaking about the benefits of the normal birth process to the mother, Op. Dr. Selveroğlu said, “Since hormones are more, breast milk comes faster. The emotional bond with the baby is established faster. The postpartum recovery process of the mother is fast and the hospitalization process is short. There are no side effects that may occur due to anesthesia. The mother's return to daily life is fast and bleeding is also less.”
Referring to the benefits of normal birth to the baby, Op. Dr. Selveroğlu said, “In this natural process, since the baby is exposed to beneficial bacteria as it passes through the birth canal, the defense system becomes stronger going forward. The fluid accumulated in the lungs is less and adaptation to life is faster.”
Emphasizing that Tunceli State Hospital is mother and baby friendly, Opr. Dr. Cahidenur Selveroğlu said, “In this context, the pregnant school is actively working. We provide trainings on labor process and pain management, breastfeeding counseling and baby care.”
Op. Dr. Selveroğlu added that it is the healthiest way to decide with the physician how the birth process will end for the health of the mother and baby.
