Cesarean section and vaginal delivery are actually two completely different delivery methods, and there are more things to pay attention to after cesarean section than vaginal delivery. Although the pain during the operation is reduced, more attention should be paid to postoperative care. For example, after cesarean section, it is necessary to exhale before eating. So, what fruits can be eaten after exhaling during cesarean section?
After a cesarean section, the following fruits can be consumed:
1. Apple
Apples belong to warm foods, which are rich in malic acid, tannic acid, vitamins, pectin, and minerals. The adhesive and fine fibers contained in them can adsorb and eliminate bacteria and toxins, which can astringent the intestines, invigorate the stomach, produce fluids, stimulate appetite, and relieve heat. They are especially effective in treating postpartum diarrhea. Apples can also play a role in reducing blood sugar and cholesterol, which is conducive to the postpartum recovery of women suffering from pregnancy induced hypertension syndrome, diabetes and liver dysfunction.
2. Orange
Oranges are rich in vitamin C and calcium. After giving birth, mothers may have larger wounds on the endometrium and experience more bleeding. Vitamin C can enhance the elasticity and toughness of blood vessel walls, preventing postpartum bleeding. Calcium is an important component that makes up the bones and teeth of infants. Eating oranges appropriately can provide calcium to infants through their milk, which not only promotes the growth of their teeth and bones, but also prevents them from developing rickets.
3. Mihoutao
Kiwi fruit has a very high nutritional value, rich in vitamins such as vitamin C, potassium, calcium, and carotenoids. Regular consumption by mothers can strengthen the immune system and be beneficial for recovery after cesarean section. It has the effects of relieving fever, quenching thirst, diuresis, and promoting lactation. However, kiwifruit is cold in nature, so it can be heated with hot water after delivery before consumption, and one can be eaten daily.
