I often hear the old people around me say: I went to work in the fields the day after I gave birth, cooked my own food just after I gave birth, and fed the pigs and cut pig grass just after I gave birth. All in all, they not only gave birth quickly, but also recovered quickly! Nowadays, conditions in all aspects are getting better and better, but there are still many people who have difficult births. Why is this? The following are some of my opinions:
1. does a lot of work and is in better physical condition . In the past, people mostly farmed, and farming was necessary work whether they were pregnant or not. Over the years, our physical condition was suitable for having children compared with us who lack exercise now.
2. The fetus is smaller and difficult to deliver. In the past, living conditions were poor and scientific knowledge was insufficient, so we would not think about supplementing various nutrients for our children. Although such children are healthy, they may not be big, so they are not prone to dystocia. Nowadays, most families will supplement their babies with various nutrients, and the babies will be larger. Naturally, it is difficult for a baby to have a smooth delivery when she is big, and it is also prone to dystocia.
3. survivor bias . There were also many people who had dystocia in at that time, but the information was not available at that time, and dystocia was not a good thing, so not many people spread the news. What we know is what the older generation who gave birth to babies safely said, because those who had difficult births simply disappeared.
