[QUOTE="Mataracy, post: 178681, member: 28733"] Normally, the placenta comes out 5 minutes to an hour after the baby is born,but sometimes it is delayed for many hour. [B] CHECKING THE AFTERBIRTH[/B] When the afterbirth comes out,pick it up and examine it to see if is complete. If it is torn and there seem to be pieces missing,get medical help. A piece of placenta left inside the womb can cause continued bleeding or infection . Use gloves or plastic bags on your hands to handle the placenta( Note: Only if you are a Nurse or a mid wife alone). Wash your hands well afterwards. [B]WHEN THE PLACENTA IS DELAYED IN COMING:[/B] If the mother is not losing much blood , do nothing. Never pull on the cord. This could cause dangerous hemorrhage (heavy bleeding). Some times the placenta will come out if the woman squats and pushes for a while. If the mother is losing blood, feel the womb(uterus) through the belly. If it is soft, do the following: Message the womb carefully, until it gets hard. This should make it contract and push out the placenta. If the placenta does not come out soon, and bleeding continues,push downward on the top of the womb very carefully, while supporting the bottom of the womb. If the placenta still does not come out, and the heavy bleeding continues, try to control the bleeding as followings and seek medical help fast. When placenta comes out , there is always a brief flow of blood . it normally last only a few minutes and not more than a quarter of a litet (1 cup) of blood is lost. ( A little bleeding may continue for several dayw and is usually not serious.) Bleeding can often be slowed down by putting the baby to the breast. If he will not suck, perhaps someone can stroke or stimulate the mother's nipples. [B]WARNING[/B] Sometimes a woman may be bleeding severely inside without much blood coming out. Feel her belly from time to time . If it seems to be getting bigger, it may be filling with blood. Check her pulse often and eatch for signs of shock. To help prevent or control heavy bleeding , let the baby suck the mother's breast. If the baby will not suck, have a helper gently pull and massage the mother's nipples. This will cause her to produce a hormone (pituitrin) that helps control bleeding. If heavy bleeding continues, or if the mother is losing a great deal of blood through a steady truckle, do the following: - Get medical help fast. If the bleeding does not stop quickly, the mother may need yo be given serum blood in a vein ( a transfusion). - If you have ergonovine or oxytocin, use it . -The mother should drink a lot liquid( water, fruit juices, tea, soup, or Rehydration Drink. If she drows faint or has a fast, weak pulse or shows other signs of shock, put her legs up and her head down. - If the mother is losing a lot of blood, and is in danger of bleeding to death, try to stop the bleeding . [B]Note[/B]: Although some doctors use it, vitamin K does notvhrlp atop bleeding related to childbirth, miscarriage, or abortion.Do not use it. [/QUOTE]
