Blood test needs an empty stomach
In the examination before caesarean section, most hospitals will include blood test. At this time, pregnant women need blood tests on an empty stomach. Fasting time is too short or too long, which will affect the accuracy of the test results.
Need an empty stomach before caesarean section
Doctors usually tell pregnant mothers not to eat or even drink water for six or seven hours before giving birth. This is to ensure that pregnant mothers have emptied their stomachs before caesarean section. This will be safer and more convenient for pregnant mothers and doctors.
Avoid vomiting during operation.
Cesarean section needs anesthesia, but few people know that pregnant mothers may feel nausea and vomiting after anesthesia. If the pregnant mother vomits at this time, the vomit may block the respiratory tract and increase the risk. But if the pregnant mother has emptied the food in her stomach before the operation, it will be safer and more convenient for the pregnant mother and the doctor.
