Mothers who give birth by caesarean section need to pay more attention than those who give birth naturally, otherwise it is easy to leave some sequelae. One thing that mothers who have undergone cesarean section must pay attention to is that they must defecate after giving birth. Below are the benefits of defecating after cesarean section:
Firstly, if there is no bowel movement during a cesarean section, there may be bloating. If a pregnant woman experiences bloating, it will naturally affect her diet and nutrient absorption. Therefore, mothers who have undergone cesarean section must pass stool before eating. After that, what will be the performance? The sign of postpartum defecation is flatulence. Generally, if there is continuous flatulence after giving birth, it means that defecation has been completed. If you eat before defecation, it will make defecation more difficult.
Secondly, defecation is also for detoxification. In the late stages of pregnancy, when the intestines are compressed by the uterus, some toxins may not be able to be excreted smoothly and accumulate in the intestines. Timely defecation after childbirth can eliminate these accumulated toxins from the body.
Another benefit is that postpartum defecation can help regulate the body. Most cesarean section mothers have weak bodies, and the process of defecation can further regulate their bodies. Therefore, it is necessary to defecate after childbirth. When defecating, it is best to avoid eating and drink some water appropriately to facilitate faster defecation. Some mothers may not be able to defecate on their own in a timely manner, so they need to take some ventilation medication or drink some radish soup to assist with defecation.
