How to avoid postpartum illness during summer confinement

Childbirth for women has always been very dangerous since ancient times. Even though medicine is more advanced now and childbirth for women is no longer life-threatening, it is still very painful, and during the confinement period, one may be left with injuries if one is not careful. When women are in confinement, their bodies are relatively weak, and they need to breastfeed their children more frequently. This requires pregnant women to learn to rest as soon as possible, even just taking a nap is very effective. Only with enough rest can you recover as soon as possible.

The traditional method of confinement after childbirth does not allow you to wash your hair or take a bath, but that was before the low living standards, and washing your hair or taking a bath made it very easy to catch a cold. But now that everyone's living standards have improved, there will be no problem as long as they keep warm. Pregnant women should not take a bath to avoid postpartum infection.

Women have to take care of their children after giving birth, which may cause them to lower their heads, squat, etc. However, pregnant women should note that they should not do this posture too often or maintain a posture for a long time.

Things are different now than in the past. Some traditional confinement methods are no longer suitable. Especially for pregnant women giving birth in summer, there is no need to cover themselves excessively, otherwise they are likely to suffer from heatstroke after giving birth.

How can I avoid gaining weight again during the confinement period?

1: Women can control their weight by exclusively breastfeeding. Because women store too much fat during pregnancy, through the method of breastfeeding, the fat can be converted into nutrients and passed on to the baby, thereby reducing the amount of fat in the woman's body.

2. Women need food supplements during the confinement period, but they cannot be taken randomly or indiscriminately. Don't blindly supplement with high-calorie foods. You should also eat more foods rich in vitamins. At the same time, you should eat more fruits and foods high in fiber, which can not only prevent constipation, but also have the effect of losing weight.

3. Women do not have to lie still all the time during the confinement period. If the body allows, they should do some exercises that are suitable for them, which can effectively prevent fat accumulation.

As long as women follow the above principles during the confinement period, they can control their weight, avoid gaining weight again, and may also lose weight.
