Total anesthesia during birth
Unlike partial anesthesia, at total anesthesia, you will not be able to see your baby quickly during birth. You will see him as soon as you wake up.
Also, you will wake up directly in pain and not as in the anesthesia in the vertebral column, from which the effects disappear gradually. But as soon as you wake up, the doctor will give you intravenous analgesics.
You will have your sore throat. You will swallow very difficult, and you will have a hoarse voice, because of the respiratory tube used during total anesthesia.
You will not feel the maneuvers, the body manipulations that the doctor does, and you will not hear the discussions during the surgery between the doctors and the nurses.
Doctor opts for total anesthesia only at significant cases:
• scoliosis,
• clotting problems,
• heart problems,
• if partial anesthesia did not work with a patient in a previous operation.
The mood is much better after total anesthesia. In partial anesthesia, you will be awake all the time, especially after nights full of emotions and of insomnia, from the last period of pregnancy.
After total anesthesia, you will have blurred vision, sore eyes, and sore throat.
You must know that after birth it can appear health problems. It doesn't matter if is natural birth or birth with epidural anesthesia.
