What should you pay attention to after giving birth?

1. Appearance is determined by the heart. The body's condition is closely related to the mood and mental state. If you can maintain a happy mood after giving birth, it will have a very good effect on the body's recovery, which will also affect the baby's mood. You must live in a comfortable natural environment. The room needs to be ventilated frequently, and it is more appropriate to maintain the indoor temperature at around 25-28 degrees.

2. For mothers, air quality is very important. If they inhale harmful substances such as formaldehyde, mold, and allergens, they will cause physical discomfort and even affect breastfeeding.

3. Using an air purifier in the bedroom can effectively filter harmful media in the air and allow new mothers to breathe healthy air. It should be noted that since babies often sleep with their mothers and they need enough sleep, remember to set the air purifier to sleep mode so as not to disturb the baby's sweet dreams.

4. If you are in confinement during the summer, be sure to prevent the wind from the fan or the air outlet of the air conditioner from blowing directly onto your body, as you may easily catch a cold. If your clothes are soaked due to excessive sweating, change into comfortable clothes as soon as possible.

5. Keeping it clean is equally important. Because new mothers have more secretions in the lower body, they must insist on cleaning with warm water every day.

6. With the increase of appetite and frequency of meals, if you do not pay attention to rinsing your mouth and brushing your teeth, it will cause bacteria to multiply in your mouth and cause dental diseases. There is no need to believe in the rules that people blindly follow in the past. "Not brushing your teeth during the confinement period" will actually ruin your good teeth.

7. If your energy allows, you should start brushing your teeth the day after giving birth. However, it should be noted that the gums are relatively sensitive and fragile during the confinement period, so it is best to brush your teeth with warm water to avoid irritation.

8. Choose a soft-bristled toothbrush with soft bristles whenever possible. If you use a sonic toothbrush to brush your teeth, adjust it to the sensitive mode. The intelligent timer will ensure three minutes of brushing time, which can gently and thoroughly clean your front teeth and gums without worrying about front tooth problems.

9. In terms of diet, new mothers should also pay attention that the main goal of the first week after giving birth is to "relieve dampness and reduce swelling", so there is definitely no need to over-supplement.

10. In the first week, you can eat some light soups, such as yam and pork ribs soup, red dates and white fungus soup, to help the uterus excrete waste; appropriate amounts of oranges, red grapefruits, kiwis and other fresh fruits can also have an appetizing effect. It is important to remember that the most important thing in this link is to strengthen the spleen and appetite rather than to nourish and maintain health. Only with a good appetite can food taste good and digestion and absorption will be better.
