Due to various reasons, many pregnant women choose to have a caesarean section to welcome their baby. However, after a caesarean section, due to the deep incision, it is recommended that the mother must rest in bed. During this period, in order to recover the wound as soon as possible, the mother must eat more nutritious food. Can fruits be eaten after a caesarean section?
After a cesarean section, it is advisable to eat some fruits appropriately because women have just given birth and their qi and blood are relatively weak. It is recommended to eat some warm and hydrated fruits, but not immediately, and wait for the basic recovery of gastrointestinal function before eating. Common examples include apples, bananas, red dates, longan, and so on. Some women love to eat durian, and it can also be consumed appropriately after a cesarean section because it is nutritious, delicious, and can stimulate the appetite of the mother, which is also beneficial for postpartum physical recovery.
But when eating fruits, do not eat raw or cold fruits. If the fruit is taken out of the refrigerator, it is recommended to place it in a room temperature environment and wait for a period of time before eating. In addition, in the early postpartum period, many women may experience constipation. It is recommended to eat some bananas to stimulate intestinal peristalsis and help with bowel movements.
After a cesarean section, women must pay attention to wound cleanliness. It is recommended to disinfect with iodine after taking a shower every night and keep the wound dry as much as possible to prevent infection. During the recovery period of the wound, do not engage in physical labor and rest more. Adding more protein to daily diet can stimulate milk secretion while ensuring milk quality.
