Patient's question:
I have been trying to conceive recently, and this is my second pregnancy. My first child was born via C-section, so for this one, I am planning a natural birth. I heard from a friend that a wider pelvis makes it easier to have a natural birth. I'm not sure if that's true or not, so I wanted to ask if a wider pelvis really makes it easier to have a natural birth?Doctor's answer:
Women with wider hips and narrower pelvises are relatively easier to give birth compared to those with the opposite condition. However, it depends on the size of the fetus. If the fetus is larger, it may not be able to enter the pelvis, and normal vaginal delivery may not be possible.After being admitted to the hospital, the doctor will conduct a comprehensive examination, calculate the size of the fetus, and check the condition of the pelvis. Based on the results of the examination, the appropriate delivery method will be determined.
It is recommended to improve physical fitness, strengthen physical exercise, balance work and rest, and maintain a regular lifestyle.
