EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE " Wdnef diy. Dm. 13, 1S44 1 Your Health and Its Care BV DR WILLIAM BRA-DY. M D. Raeders should address InqulriM loi Oi William Brady 265 El Camlno. BaTerly HUli Cilii. EARLY OP AN - Le'me see, how many days must a woman remain in bed ftsr tha birth of. a baby- MH nine, -aii t I wonder why not the mystic seven? In some cases it is necessary and advisable that the worn- an remain in bed for that length of-time or even long er. But now Pt Bradv . . that we' are freeing our minds from tradi tional fancies and superstitions, we doctors and you people, it appears that It is better in every way for the puerpera (woman who has just borne a child) to resume activity a few days after childbirth. Not abruptly, but gradually, as indicated in the following discussion. Old. timers were not all agreed about this. In a treatise on Puerperal Fever (septic in fection or "blood poisoning", as it was called later) Dr. Charles White in England about the mid dle of the 18th century, main tained that "the patient should be allowed up within a few hours after delivery. The sooner the patient gets out of bed the better, and this should not be deferred beyond the second or third day at the furtherest". Early in the 19th century Dr. Robert Gootch, professor of ob stetrics at St. .Bartholomew's Hospital, London; cautioned his students that "for three weeks after delivery the patient should be kept chiefly in the reoum ben position, the consequence of getting up soon after delivery with the heavy uterus suspend ed in the flaccid abdomen will be a relapse of this organ.' In Modern Hospital, Feb. 43, Dr. B. W. Black reports the ex perience of the obstretlc depart ment of Alameda County Hos jltals In Oakland, Calif. In a series of 3,400 cases, about one third of the patients were dis charged four days after child birth, 30 per cent from four to seven days after childbirth and 89 per cent, after the eighth day. The obstetricians found that no complications occurred that THE GRANGE Central Point . , . ,The last meeting of 1944 for the Central Point Grange will be held Friday, Dec. IS, and wll) begin promptly at 8 o'clock. The 1943 officers having been duly Installed will have charge of the meeting;. . The lecture hour will be In the form of a Christmas party, Chriatmaj carols will be sung and a sacred skit will be presented. Tha skit, entitled, 'To All People," was written by Nlta Blrdsey and taken from the Bible. An enjoyable lecture hour was provided at the Dec. 5 meet ing of the Eagle Point Grange by L. E. Francis who gave a talk accompanied by colored movies of local residents and cattle ranches. ' Laura Clark, leader of recre ational activities for the youth, announced the first recreational Bwa3ffa TTTTV " 4,n,,,,r7Tfm'f 1 EXIT TO DEATH One Jap made a run for It and here lies dead at mouth of enemy pillbox on Levta bland. Three, Ar,.,i... m J lorsj who cut him down, watch the D KEEP FIT were attributed to early dis charge of the patient from the hospital. In the Jour. A.M.A. July 22 44, Dr. Morris Rotstein reports his experience with getting pa tients up early after childbirth. One hundred fifty patients were allowed up on the third or fourth day after childbirth, These patients allowed to get out of bed early feel stronger and are better equipped to car ry on their routine duties at home than patients who are kept in bed nine days or longer, Involution' of the uterus was accelerated and prolapse was not encountered. Healing of eplslotomy wounds was not af fected by early rising. No cases of thrombophlebitis (clotting and inflammation in a vein) ac curred, and early activity after childbirth probably lessens the hazard of such a complication. I call attention again to what Ol Doc Gootch said, particularly his remark about flaccid abdo men (of course that means belly, the wall- of the abdomen, not the abromen which is a cavity). Perhaps ' women in those days were as flaccid as they were frail. ' A women today really should know better than to let herself go flaccid.
