Q&A

Good afternoon. Tell me, please, I plan to give birth in your perinatal center and I would like to arrange a single room for a fee after giving birth. At what time is it better to do this?

Dear Olga! You can sign a contract with GUZ "LOPTS" for the provision of paid services (in this case, a single room of increased comfort) for any period of pregnancy. The deadline is the actual day of delivery (if it does not fall on a day off, because the accounting department does not work). On our website, the term "after 37 weeks" is indicated, but this is conditional, done only to reduce the number of rash decisions on the part of patients.

Good afternoon. Please tell me if I don't make a face on 26.04.2021, then 27.04.2021 goes to you. And will I be immediately stimulated or will you be watching for a while? Diagnosis of GSD.

Dear Marina! In order to answer your question, there is not enough data set out in the appeal. After hospitalization to us on 27.04.2021, it is necessary to conduct an examination, additional examination, to see the condition of the fetus and the readiness of the birth canal, to recalculate all the terms - only after that it will be possible to make an informed decision. In any case, no stimulation is performed without your consent. All options will be discussed with you and further tactics will be agreed upon.

Is it possible to take a fitness ball for childbirth, so that you can give birth faster?

Dear Ulyana! We have fitness balls in the maternity hospitals. It is unlikely that your own is any special.

Do they warn you about the discharge in advance or did you look at it in the morning and have already been discharged in the evening?

Dear Ulyana!
We usually discharge maternity patients on the 4th day after delivery. On the eve of discharge, we warn you, of course. But you need to understand that the final issue of discharge is decided only on the day of discharge, after the morning round, together with obstetricians-gynecologists and neonatologists. Therefore, there are also cases when the discharge was planned, but then was postponed due to the appearance of any new data regarding the health of the mother or newborn.
Check - out is carried out 7 days a week, usually in the period 12:00-16:00.

They say that the first day after giving birth, you can eat and drink whatever you want - and this will not affect the milk in any way. Can I have champagne with chocolates?

Dear Ulyana!
Eating and drinking whatever you want is the wrong way to go in any period of life, not just after giving birth. And in the postpartum period, even more so: the food should be healthy, contain the necessary components for recovery after childbirth and high-quality breastfeeding, do not cause allergies in the child. Of course, alcohol is absolutely contraindicated. And chocolate can cause allergies in the baby receiving your breast milk.

A dummy. Do I need to take it with me to the hospital? And in general, is it worth buying until the baby is born - there is now such a variety of them, you may need some special one.

Dear Ulyana!
Our obstetric hospital since 2014. It has the honorary title of the WHO "Child-friendly Hospital". We promote breastfeeding. Therefore, we do not recommend using" pacifiers " to anyone.

When you are lying with the baby in the postpartum room and there are no neighbors, who should you leave the baby to go to the toilet or shower? Wait for someone to come to you, or are there nannies there? What kind of gratitude is given to nannies for such a service?

Dear Alyona!
If you will be lying in a completely separate single room after delivery, then, during your temporary absence, the child can be looked after by a pediatric nurse or a midwife of the postpartum department. And in the presence of neighbors, the option with the medical staff is still better.
We don't have any nannies. And nurses do not deal with children in any case. You don't have to wait long for anyone. Medical staff posts next to the wards, in addition, each ward has a call button for medical staff.

For partner births, it is written to take a change of clothes for your husband - it should be like home clothes (sportswear, shorts) or just clean jeans?

Dear Ulyana! Clothing for the presence of a partner at birth should be light, made of "breathable" fabric (in the delivery room it is warm), comfortable and clean. For example, a cotton shirt, thin trousers, a change of shoes on your feet. There should be no woolen wool, fleecy fabrics. In addition to these clothes, it is advisable to buy a disposable medical suit made of spandex (a shirt and trousers or a robe, shoe covers, a cap and a mask) at the pharmacy - this is worn on top of a change of clothes.

At the birth, if we go by ambulance, do we dress decently or immediately in a nightgown and a bathrobe? In the underpants-a pad (if the water is already draining) or a rag?

Dear Ulyana!
We hope that this is an axiom for our patients: we must always and everywhere behave decently. You do not need to put on a robe and a shirt at once. The shirt should be with you, a bathrobe for childbirth will not be useful at all. You change clothes in the maternity hospital. The lining is ordinary from the pharmacy, of the appropriate size and class of absorption.

Hello! Tell me, do you have scheduled COP on weekends? I was told to come to you on April 24 (Saturday). Will I get a COP on this day or will it be rescheduled for Monday?

Dear Lyudmila!
There may have been some mistake. We don't have scheduled surgeries on weekends. In addition, if your last name matches the name of your email address, then you are generally not recorded in our operational plan in April. Call 31-45-97 or 31-45-96 (ask Mikhail Yevgenyevich), we will solve this problem.
