Postpartum confinement is very important. As long as it is properly cared for, the body can recover, replenish the physical exertion during childbirth, and restore the pre pregnancy physical state. Women not only need to take care of themselves, but also take care of their babies, so they often feel overwhelmed. So, what is the scientific method of confinement?
Scientific postpartum confinement should last for 42 days, so that the uterus can return to its pre pregnancy state. The recovery of the uterine body takes about 6 weeks, and it is not advisable to take excessive supplements during the confinement period. Eating too much can make the body unable to absorb it and increase the burden on the digestive system. Women should rest in a place with smooth air and maintain reasonable temperature and humidity.
If it is a postpartum confinement in summer, in order to prevent women from heatstroke, it is advisable to turn on the fan or air conditioning appropriately, as long as it does not blow towards the air outlet. The room should also be frequently opened to maintain fresh indoor air. Many women sweat after giving birth, and if they don't take a shower for a long time, they can feel uncomfortable and easily cause wound infections. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to hygiene during postpartum confinement.
After 3 days postpartum, women can choose to take a bath to maintain their cleanliness, but the water temperature should not be too high or too low, and should not be washed for too long. After washing, they should completely dry themselves and not let their bodies catch a cold. Women's bodies are still relatively weak, and their immune system will also weaken, so they should not be exposed to cold water too early. They should be accustomed to using warm water in their daily lives.
