5 Tips for an Easier Normal Delivery

by

Preparing for delivery and labour is one of the most important parts of a woman’s life. For expectant moms or women having a normal delivery for the first time, it is very obvious for them to imagine the feelings that their body will go through in labor. There are certain skills and techniques you can practice before D-day.

  1. Control Your Emotions

 

It is known to be one of the most vital parts of giving birth and labor. Your emotional state and mindset are really connected to your body’s response to the sensations. If you are stressed, scared, or feeling pressured, it could hinder the progress of your labor.

On the other side, if you feel free to labor on your own and you don’t worry about it and focus inwards, you can easily let your baby and your body to do what it should do. It goes for everyone around you when you labor. Don’t be nervous to speak up if you are feeling stressed.

  1. Prefer a specialist with satisfying normal delivery rate

 

In order to choose the best gynaecologist in Noida, ask about the cesarean rate and prefer normal delivery. Ask other women who got delivery with the doctor and learn about their cesarean rate.

  1. Practice Breathing

 

Have you seen babies being born in the movies or on TV? You may have definitely gone through some breathing techniques they use. Breathing is very important to birthing. It can help you –

  • Manage pain
  • Bring yourself back to the moment and the body to allow the labour to progress.
  • Help pelvic floor and core muscles to generate strength and, at last, rest

Here are a few of the breathing techniques to help move the baby down and out –

Inhale

While inhaling, you may want to feel it filling up the trunk. Feel the belly and rib cage filling with air and your perineum expands.

Exhale

You may need to send breath down the body when you exhale. Feel that you are blowing your breath down rather than thinking of blowing air out from diaphragm to the vagina. Don’t force it.

  1. Push when you are ready

 

We often see a birthing scene when doctors around a woman yell to “PUSH” in media and movies. When it comes to pushing, a woman has to push hard when her doctor says so. Then, doctors do the countdown for ten seconds to train her along the way. As a general rule, a mom must push whenever she feels the pain and desperate need to push, and not exactly when someone tells that time is now.

If you ask how you would know when it’s time to push, the simple answer is – you will know. It’s an unquestionable response that comes from within when you are ready to push. You don’t have to wait for 10 seconds to sustain the push for. You also don’t have to force pushes or pushing time.

  1. Train Your Pelvic and Core Muscles on Pregnancy

 

It is a very important thing to consider. Don’t skip exercises to train the pelvic floor and core muscles to relax during pregnancy. Practicing your pelvic floor and core muscles can help you relax and strengthen during the pregnancy. It can make a big difference to push during labor. It doesn’t mean you need to do sit-ups, crunches, and lots of planks. You need to practice workouts which can train you to –

  • Breathe properly
  • Control pressure on your abdominals and pelvic floor muscles
  • Allow the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles to release tension so baby can move and shift

What diet should you consider for normal delivery?

 

A lot of women suffer morning sickness initially and end up eating less. In the first trimester, a lot of women suffer extreme nausea and even lose weight by eating less. At the end of the first trimester, you don’t have to worry as your child will be just 50 to 60 grams. If your appetite returns eventually in the second trimester, women start wondering what to eat during pregnancy.

Half of your meal must include vegetables and fruits while the rest should have lean protein like milk, lentils, cheese, and whole grains. Consume meals in the portion in every 3 to 4 hours and stay hydrated. Don’t skip any meals when you are pregnant.

Bottom Line

 

We hope you liked the above post about easier normal delivery. Follow the above steps to make your delivery experience even better. We wish you to have a happy pregnancy and easy labor.

Frankfurt Airport opens seven new security control lanes in extension Hall A

Frankfurt Airport opens seven new security control lanes in extension Hall A
New Security Control Lanes in A Extension.

The German Federal Police (Bundespolizei) and airport operator Fraport AG have opened a new aviation security checkpoint at Frankfurt Airport (FRA). Featuring seven control lanes, the additional checkpoint has been installed in a purpose-built extension to Concourse A at Terminal 1 – after only six months of construction.

Kerstin Kohlmetz, President of the Federal Police Office at Frankfurt Airport, inaugurated the new security checkpoint on July 24. She was joined by Dr. Stefan Schulte, executive board chairman of Fraport AG; and Jasper van Gend, Head of Market, Europe North & East at screening technology provider Smiths Detection. The new security lanes were previously tested in a one-week trial phase.

At the inauguration ceremony, Kohlmetz pointed out the excellent cooperation between the Federal Police and Fraport: “The opening of the new security control lanes in extension hall A is the result of joint efforts by Fraport and the Federal Police to minimize waiting times for passengers at checkpoints, while also maintaining consistently high security standards.”

Fraport CEO Schulte explained: “Thanks to the new control lanes, considerably more passengers can now pass through security control in Concourse A, resulting in shorter waiting times. All partners involved in this project worked very hard to ensure that the extension hall would be ready during the busy summer peak. Let me extend my special thanks to everybody involved! Completing such a construction project within just six months is certainly not something that can be taken for granted.”

Jasper van Gend of Smiths Detection underlined: “This beacon project for Smiths Detection demonstrates what public-sector clients and industry can achieve together within a short period of time, when acting with the necessary flexibility and efficiency. The Frankfurt Airport solution is also a blueprint for other German gateways, where similar solutions are currently being tested or planned. We are pleased about the successful cooperation achieved at all levels during this project.”

By building the extension to Concourse A, Fraport has created the necessary space and infrastructure for the new security lanes implemented by the Federal Police, as the responsible government agency. An initial version of the technology for the new checkpoint has been in trial use at FRA since November 2018. The configuration of the new checkpoint offers more flexibility and faster security screenings. Thanks to the new lane structure, more passengers can present their hand luggage for inspection at the same time. Moreover, individual travelers can pass by other slower passengers within the same lane. The lanes also provide more space for analyzing X-rays and for carrying out manual checks, which are conducted by staff members of security service companies on behalf of the Federal Police.

From October, the final construction phase of the extension hall will begin. During this phase, the new security lanes will be removed and redeployed at other existing checkpoints in FRA’s two terminals. When construction is completed, extension hall A will go back into operation in time for the 2020 summer season.

The German Federal Police currently operate 186 security control lanes at Frankfurt Airport, nine of which feature the new configuration. Over the next few years, the new lane configuration will be gradually rolled out throughout FRA’s terminals – including at the future Terminal 3, which is currently under construction.

No Easter Travel for Palestinian Christians in Gaza

by

There are around 1,100 Palestinian Christians in Gaza, many of whom are descended from the earliest Christians in Palestine (where Christianity originated). For the first time, Israeli authorities denied all travel permits to Palestinian Christians from Gaza to celebrate Easter as they do each year, by processing from Bethlehem to Jerusalem to follow the path of Jesus in the Resurrection.

Can such a restriction be justified by security needs only?

Human right watchers say, Israel’s decision to outright deny movement between Gaza and the West Bank this Easter constitutes a further violation of Palestinians’ fundamental rights to freedom of movement, religious freedom, and family life. The increased restriction on the movement of Palestinian Christians points to further implementation of Israel’s ‘separation policy’: a policy restricting movement between Gaza and the West Bank which deepens the split between the two parts of the occupied Palestinian territory.

The number of permits issued has diminished each year, and have included blanket bans on anyone under age 55 – but this is the first year that the Israeli military allowed no  Palestinian Christians from Gaza to travel to Jerusalem for Easter.

While some practice the Latin faith and mark Easter on the 21st of April this year, many others are Eastern Orthodox and celebrate Easter on the 28th. Their traditional ceremonies involve a commemoration of Palm Sunday in Bethlehem, then a procession from the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, where Christians believe Jesus was resurrected after death.

According to the Israeli human rights organization Gisha, “The Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) published the quotas set by Israel for holiday permits to be granted to for Christian Palestinians living under Israel’s control. The quota allocated by COGAT for holiday permits for Gaza residents this Easter is limited to only 200 people over the age of 55, and only for travel abroad; the quotas for West Bank residents are limited to 400 permits for travel abroad, and visits in Israel. This means that Palestinian families separated between Gaza, Israel and the West Bank will not be able to mark the Easter holiday together. It also means that all Christians in Gaza are being denied access to family and to the holy sites in Jerusalem and the West Bank.

The ban on Gaza Christians comes after Israeli military authorities announced the full closure of the West Bank and Gaza for Palestinian residents during the week of Passover, from April 19th to 27th. Israeli military authorities, which control all aspects of life for the occupied Palestinians living under their rule in Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza, frequently closing all Palestinian areas and preventing Palestinians from moving between Palestinian towns during periods of Jewish holidays.

In 2016 at least 850 Christian Palestinians from the Gaza City Strip traveled to celebrate Easter in Bethlehem and occupied East Jerusalem after Israeli authorities agreed to grant them permits.

American Airlines to keep its Boeing 737 MAX jets grounded until August

by

American Airlines has chosen to keep its fleet of Boeing 737 MAX grounded until at least August 19, even if it means canceling 115 flights a day in summer season, as probes into the troubled jet continue and new sales have frozen.

The company, which owns 24 of the embattled jets that were involved in two recent deadly crashes, announced the decision in a letter to employees and customers. AA wants to ensure reliability “for the peak travel season and provide confidence to our customers and team members when it comes to their travel plans,” Chief Executive Doug Parker and President Robert Isom wrote.

The 737 MAX 8 airliners were grounded worldwide after a fatal crash of an Ethiopian Airlines flight, which killed 157 people on board. The incident came months after a crash of the same model operated by Lion Air was apparently linked to the same faulty flight control system.

Parker and Isom have at the same time expressed confidence in Boeing’s ability to fix the problem through software updates and changes to pilot training procedures. The US airline has 24 MAX planes in its fleet and is expected to get 16 more delivered this year. The grounding has already resulted in the cancelation of about 90 flights per day through early June, and the extension may put a strain on American’s ability to meet demand for seats during upcoming peak travel season. As many as 115 daily flights will have to be canceled in August, according to the letter.

The crashes have left Boeing open to criticism over the way it certified the fast-selling model, conducting some of the tests in-house with the permission of the Federal Aviation Authority. Critics say the producer cut corners to fast-track the new model to the market, compromising flight safety as a result.

At least three people die jumping from Bangkok skyscraper to escape hotel fire

by

A 57-floor hotel and shopping building has gone up in flames in Bangkok, Thailand. At least three people have died jumping to escape the fire, which ripped through the popular tourist spot.

The fire broke out at the Centara Grand hotel and Centralworld shopping plaza at around 6pm local time on Wednesday. Plumes of black smoke spewed out of the building, and three jumped to their deaths from the horrific blaze, local media reported.

Shocking footage shared on social media shows the smoke pouring out of the burning skyscraper.

Bangkok’s typically gridlocked traffic hampered the efforts of emergency services to reach the scene of the blaze, but the fire was reportedly brought under control an hour or so after it broke out.

Bangkok Governor Assawin Kwanmuang told reporters that the fire broke out on the eighth floor, in a document storage room.

The Centara Grand hotel is the flagship hotel of the Central Group, and one of the largest hotels in the Thai capital.

Wednesday’s blaze is not the first time the Centara Grand has gone up in flames. Anti-government protesters set the hotel and shopping complex on fire in 2010, after months of demonstrations. The fire gutted a department store and left parts of the building closed for months of repair work.

Airbus launches “Skywise Health Monitoring” with Allegiant Air

by

Airbus has launched first operations of a new Skywise service – Skywise Health Monitoring (SHM) – with Allegiant Air on its A320s. Dynamically coupled with Skywise Reliability Services (SRS) and Skywise Predictive Maintenance (SPM), SHM is hosted on Skywise, gathering live diagnostic feeds from the aircraft through its *ACARS link to the airline’s information system.

Using the power of the Skywise aviation data platform, SHM collates and centralises the alerts, flight-deck effects, maintenance messages etc., prioritizes them, correlates any faults with the relevant troubleshooting procedures, highlights operational impacts, provides the maintenance history of the system (from the logbook and **MIS information collected through Skywise Core and stored in the data lake), allowing effective tracking of the alerts.

When fully deployed, and following the in-service feedback from Allegiant Air and other ‘early adopters’, SHM will support airlines’ Maintenance Control Centers, Line Maintenance and Engineering departments in identifying, prioritizing, analyzing and handling in-service events, enabling quicker decision-making and preparation of the optimal solution to ensure aircraft on-time dispatch and minimizing AOG risks.

Overall, SHM saves airlines time and decreases the cost of unscheduled maintenance. Natively interfaced with SPM and SRS to provide an integrated user-experience, and also ready to harness the new on-board Flight Operations and Maintenance Exchanger (“FOMAX”) data router which can capture over 20,000 real-time aircraft parameters, SHM enables end-to-end unscheduled event management/fixes for example by anticipating tools and parts’ availability closest to the aircraft. More early adopters will join in the months to come to pilot SHM for other Airbus aircraft, including A330, A350 and A380.
