Normal delivery, also known as vaginal delivery, is the most common method of childbirth. It involves the delivery of a baby through the vagina, without the need for surgical intervention. During normal delivery, the mother experiences contractions as the uterus works to push the baby through the birth canal. The baby's head is usually the first to emerge, followed by the rest of the body. Once the baby is delivered, the umbilical cord is cut and the baby is evaluated by a pediatrician. The placenta, which provides nourishment to the baby during pregnancy, is then delivered. Recovery time after a normal delivery can vary depending on the extent of the labor and delivery, as well as the mother's overall health. Most women stay in the hospital for one to two days after delivery, and may experience some pain and discomfort during the recovery period. It is important to follow the post-partum instructions provided by the obstetrician, including getting plenty of rest and avoiding heavy lifting and strenuous activity for several weeks after delivery. At our hospital, we have a team of experienced obstetricians who specialize in normal delivery. We are dedicated to providing compassionate care and support to both the mother and baby throughout the entire process.
