Contact lens to delivery suite?


I was wearing contact lens when giving birth at thomson. Also no need to remove nails color.
 
Dear mummies to become,

I have did a research and found out that it is not suitable to wear contacts during labor and delivery. The reasons are simple. Labour pain causes a lot of strain and stress on the body. While you push, there is a lot of pressure on your head, abs, face and eyes too. There are times you will shut your eyes tightly or have watery eyes. You may also end up rubbing your eyes accidentally that may cause displacement of lenses in the eye which can be troublesome.
Even though, this post was up being question during early January but I hope this updated information will help future mothers-to-become help in planning their labor and delivery for a healthy baby and healthy-self.
