Pregnant women are always afraid that their unborn babies will not have enough nutrition, so they will always eat a lot of food, hoping that their babies will be born well. But after giving birth to a baby, women may become obese due to overeating. In order to maintain a graceful figure, women hope to use a tummy strap. Can a tummy strap be used for breastfeeding?
It is best not to use a compression band during the breastfeeding stage, and it can be used after the end of the breastfeeding period. If postpartum mothers do not need to breastfeed, they can use abdominal bands to shape their body two or three days after delivery. If women choose a cesarean section, they need to wait for the wound to heal before using abdominal bands, otherwise it may be detrimental to the wound healing.
If women want to shape a beautiful figure, it is best not to rely solely on abdominal bands. They need to exercise more and pay attention to their diet. High calorie foods are best consumed with caution. The use of abdominal bands by women may have a certain impact on the excretion of lochia, so it is advisable not to use abdominal bands immediately after childbirth.
The wearing of the abdominal belt should not be too long, otherwise it may put a burden on the muscles of the waist and abdomen. Women should not wear a compression band for more than six weeks, and should not wear it for more than 8 hours a day. The choice of compression band should also be cautious, preferably choosing a not too tight one, and the material should be cotton to avoid stimulating the skin of the waist and abdomen and causing strong itching.
