Team AckoFeb 8, 2024

When you are in labor, you need to be admitted into the labor room in your pre-booked hospital. Your weight and blood pressure will be monitored at this moment and then you will be assigned a labor room. Your past reports will be seen by the doctors and the nurses. This will give them an idea about your overall pregnancy cycle. Your dilation is checked to see that how your labor is progressing and will there be a normal or C-section delivery. Your contractions and fetal heart rate will be monitored constantly. An IV line will be inserted in your arm to give you essential fluids and medicines during the labor. Also, a consent form will be signed by you or your partner agreeing for a C-section, if required.

You need to be strong and patient during the process as this is a long process and requires a lot of courage from your side. Ask for anything that you require during this period as this takes a lot of time.
