Kirill Repjew: "As a former doctor, I'd like to tell you something...

In "maternity hospitals - HOSPITALS" there is a silent and unofficial rule - immediately cut the umbilical cord. But you should not allow this in any case❗️❗️❗️

This is because at the moment of birth the newborn is in a state of double breathing. It first receives oxygen and nutrients through the umbilical cord. His lungs are not yet fully activated, he is gradually starting to catch breath through his nose and slowly activates his lungs.

What are the "doctors" doing!? ️

Immediately after birth, they cut the umbilical cord, interrupting the supply of oxygen and nutrients. The infant feels suffocation, starts breathing heavily and tries to activate the lungs - it hurts! Also - the blood that is in the placenta has to go into the infant❗️

If the umbilical cord is immediately cut, the baby will not bleed immediately after birth. However, blood in the placenta contains the natural spectrum of the child's immunity. That is, if the umbilical cord is immediately cut, the child is deliberately deprived of part of their natural immunity.

Why !? ️

Such a child, who does not get full immunity at first, is likely to have many health problems throughout his life. This again means that "doctors" can now get parents to hear that the child now needs vaccines, pills, drugs and surgery. The more unhealthy children and people, the more patients "medicine" has. Nothing personal, it's just business.

The umbilical cord should be cut ONE HOUR AFTER BIRTH. But the "doctors" don't think about it. For good reasons, they want to get it over with as soon as possible. The medical business wants the umbilical cord and placenta to remain as fresh as possible.

Now the question - why does medicine need a fresh placenta and umbilical cord!? ️

Expensive medical and cosmetic products are produced from their tissue. This is one of the main reasons why the medical business doesn't want women to give birth at home, in an atmosphere that is comfortable and at home for them. If more and more women did it anyway, medicine would lose an important source of income. “

Elective induction around a holiday is for convenience, but not yours.

With Thanksgiving & Christmas coming up, loads of unnecessary inductions and c-sections are about to happen.

Every year there is a HUGE decrease in births on (and around)...

🔆 Christmas
🔆 New Year’s Eve/Day
🔆 Easter (changes yearly - first Sunday after the full moon in April)
🔆 Memorial Day (changes yearly - last Monday in May in the US)
🔆 Independence Day (4th of July in the US)
🔆 Thanksgiving (changes yearly - last Thursday in November)

And it’s not just the United States - it's everywhere.

How could it be that all of these holidays have lower birth rates year after year?

It’s not a coincidence - it’s about convenience.

And not YOUR convenience. The convenience of providers.

No one wants to work on holidays, and hospital birth providers have a way to make sure (for the most part) that they don’t have to.

Inductions & c-sections are rarely scheduled ON holidays, but they ARE frequently scheduled in the days leading up to, or just after, a holiday.

If you are due around a holiday, and your provider suggests an induction or c-section, it’s a good idea to question why (remember that you always have the right to decline). If there is NOT a legitimate medical reason, they may be more concerned with being home in time for a holiday dinner than your well being.

👉TRIGGER WARNING: Fetal Scalp Monitoring👈

Parents are often surprised to find out that the monitor that was attached to their baby's head during labour wasn't just a "clip," as it was referred to, or a sticker, but instead a metal screw that went into the scalp. There may be times when parents want to make the choice to use a fetal scalp electrode to monitor their baby's heartrate, HOWEVER as is the case with anything, this intervention needs to be explained in detail to parents along with the risks and benefits.

Here's a link from AIMS that talks through various fetal monitoring in labour https://www.aims.org.uk/information/item/monitoring-your-babys-heartbeat-in-labour

Once again, things like fetal scalp monitoring *can* impact the baby's head and their head movement when breastfeeding, not to mention that it often leads to further interventions in labour that can further impact the baby's abilities to breastfeed comfortably.

Image Description: background is block colours and an image of a fetal scalp electrode monitor with text overlay, "Stop calling it a clip, it's a screw! A Fetal Scalp Electrode Can be screwed into your baby's head to monitor your baby's heartrate during labour. It's meant to help determine whether your baby is under any stress while you labour. stress???..."

Don't get induced unless there is a true medical reason that jeopardizes the baby/mothers wellbeing.
Situations like this are unfortunately more common than we are lead to believe.
