Objective To establish a midwife-obstetrician collaboration-based management model for pregnant women after caesarean sections and to evaluate its effectiveness on women′s childbirth outcomes. Methods A panel of experts including obstetricians and midwives was established. A revised management scheme for women after cesarean sections was finally formed through multiple expert consultation method. A historical control method was implemented in our study. Women giving birth before the implementation of collaboration-based management scheme between 2011 and 2013 were recruited in the control group;and women giving birth afterwards between 2014 and 2016 were recruited in the intervention group. Childbirth outcomes such as the mode of delivery, rate of trial of labor after cesarean sections, and vaginal birth rate after cesareans were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 3326 women in intervention group, of those women 281 (8.4%) under trial of labor after cesarean, of the women who under trial of labor 264(94.0%) had successful vaginal birth. A total of 1625 women in control group, of those women 28(1.7%) under trial of labor after cesarean, of the women who under trial of labor 22(78.6%) had successful vaginal birth. The trial of labor after cesarean sections rate and the vaginal birth rate after cesareans rate was significantly higher in intervention group than that in control group (P<0.01). Conclusions The midwife-obstetrician collaboration-based management model can promote vaginal birth for women after cesarean sections, and has no adverse effect on other childbirth outcomes, which is worthy of being implemented more widely in China.

Women with gestational hyperglycemia tend to encounter breastfeeding difficulties, which may lead to breastfeeding failure or short duration of breastfeeding. Antenatal breastmilk expression, stimulating or massaging the breasts during pregnancy to produce milk and to collect and store colostrum, is beneficial to lactogenesis, thereby reducing formula feeding, promoting the transition to exclusive breastfeeding and increasing the exclusive breastfeeding rate. This review summarizes the safety and feasibility of antenatal breastmilk expression for women with gestational hyperglycemia, aiming to provide breastfeeding guidance for this population.
