How to lose weight after giving birth

Women all love beauty. During the childbearing period, women pay more attention to maintaining their figure. However, pregnant women often gain weight. This is a normal phenomenon. However, it is not easy for women to lose weight after childbirth. Especially, how to lose weight in the belly after giving birth is a problem that is very difficult for women to solve. So, how can women lose weight in the belly after giving birth?

Postpartum belly weight loss 1: Use a pelvic belt first after giving birth

Whether mothers give birth naturally or by cesarean section, their pelvis will widen due to increased hormones in preparation for natural birth. Research has found that within 42 days after delivery, female hormones have not yet decreased and the pelvis still has good plasticity. Therefore, applying moderate external force to the pelvis in time within 42 days after delivery can effectively help the pelvis return to its pre-delivery state.

In other words, unlike the recovery of a woman's abdomen, the pelvis can only recover effectively during the confinement period.

Postpartum belly slimming 2: When to use a belly belt

a． Mothers who gave birth naturally can only use a belly belt after the confinement period. Some mothers think that there is no wound on the abdomen after a natural birth, so they can use a belly belt immediately. In fact, this is not the case. After giving birth, there is still a lot of blood stasis, gas and other body fluids in the mother's abdomen, which need to be naturally discharged from the body through circulation. If a restraint belt is used too early, it will only restrict blood circulation in the body, which is not conducive to the discharge of lochia, and is even more detrimental to smooth breathing, and is not good for organ recovery. In addition, using a belly belt too early will put the force on the upper part of the pelvis, which may force the still soft pelvis to expand outward, which is not conducive to the recovery of the pelvis.

b. Therefore, it is recommended that mothers who give birth naturally should start using a pelvic correction belt after their bodies have recovered well after delivery, and then use a belly belt specially designed for natural delivery to help shape their body one month after delivery.

c. Whether the mother gave birth naturally or by caesarean section, she can switch to a reinforced belly belt according to her personal needs as early as 6 weeks to 6 months after delivery.
