Tips for first bowel movement for pregnant women

The method for most women to have their first bowel movement is to drink a glass of boiled water or some honey water every morning, which can soften the stool and help it be excreted from the body. At the same time, you must adjust your diet after giving birth, and you can also do appropriate activities, which will help the excretion of the first bowel movement.

1. Drink boiled water and honey water: Postpartum women are likely to have constipation. Drinking boiled water or honey water after getting up every morning can accelerate gastrointestinal motility, and help excrete toxins and waste in the intestines out of the body. It can help with the first bowel movement and avoid constipation symptoms during bowel movements after childbirth.

2. Dietary adjustments: Women should control their diet properly after giving birth. They should not eat too much fried and greasy food, which will make it more difficult to defecate. They can choose to eat some fruits and vegetables in moderation, which can provide vitamins and facilitate bowel movements.

3. Moderate activities: Women must do some moderate activities after giving birth. For example, getting out of bed and walking around can promote gastrointestinal motility. After the gastrointestinal motility speeds up, constipation will also improve.

If a woman has difficulty defecating for the first time, she can consult a doctor and use a small amount of enema under the doctor's guidance to soften the stool and speed up defecation.
