Abstract:
Objective To investigate the impact of the different mode of delivery on postpartum lactation.Methods 1 678 pregnant women in our hospital were divided into cesarean section group(798 cases) and natural delivery group(880 cases).Open milk after delivery,breast fullness,the number of neonatal sucking and post-natal self-assessment milk water were compared between the two groups of pregnant women,and the impact of the mode of delivery on postpartum lactation was analyzed.Results Whether or not began to lactation (721/77cases),and the time of labor to beginning to lactation [(33.45 ± 9.68) h],and whether or not having breast fullness feeling (512/286 cases),and the time of labor to breast fullness feeling[(57.12 ± 13.90) h] in cesarean section group had significant difference with those of spontaneus labor group [(845/35 cases),(30.12 ± 10.25) h,(690/190 cases),(52.98 ±15.09) h] (x2 =21.613,t =2.452,x2 =41.813,t =2.818,all P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in selfrating milk score [(2.02 ± 0.45) points vs (2.45 ± 0.51) points],and newborn sucking times 4 ～ 6d postpartum [(5.21 ±1.21) times vs (5.89± 1.82)times](t =2.012,2.532,all P ＜0.05).Conclusion Efficiency of the breast-feeding was affected by the impact of the mode of delivery.Rationalized breastfeeding guidance was necessary to strengthen for pregnant women by cesarean section.
