How to restore your body shape a few months after giving birth

No matter you choose a natural birth or a caesarean section (if you choose a natural birth, you may be able to get out of bed and move around the next day, but if you choose a caesarean section, you may need about a week, which varies from person to person), you don't have to lie in bed all the time after giving birth, with clothes and food provided for you. Succulents will take care of you a lot. Walking properly can help relax your muscles and tendons, improve metabolism, but you should also move moderately to avoid catching a cold during the confinement period. Many people are familiar with this. Another experience is to do sit-ups! Yes, it is plank support, provided that the body allows, so that the waist muscles can be repaired quickly, and it will not become big and strong in the future! There are also foot and arm exercises, which are basically extension and flexion exercises, and they should not be too intense.

There have always been doubts about nutritional balance. Even doctors disagree with each other. This work experience only represents my personal opinion. At the beginning, brown sugar ginger water can be drunk after delivery to help expel lochia and repair the uterus. It seems that those who have a caesarean section do not need to drink it. You can drink brown sugar water on the second day after a normal delivery, and you can drink it for about a week. Of course, this also depends on the person's situation. You cannot drink too much brown sugar ginger water, as it can easily cause anemia. Secondly, the nutritional diet for one week after delivery should be light in taste, which is conducive to gastrointestinal digestion, body metabolism, etc. After that, you can eat the postpartum confinement meals recommended by various maternity and baby products apps. The basic standard is to eat small meals frequently, balance your diet, and avoid spicy and cold foods.

How long does it take for the femur to return to normal after childbirth?

The fastest one can be repaired within half a year, while the slowest one may need a year or even longer. Therefore, it may take half a year for the thigh bone to return to normal after giving birth.

As we all know, when women are pregnant or giving birth, the main problem is the ischial tuberosity of the pelvis being loose and the ligaments being injured. Postpartum pelvic restoration mainly refers to this part. The ischial tuberosity is roughly aligned with the greater trochanter of the femoral head in the hip (the most protruding part of the hip on both sides of the human body). In other words, to repair the ischial tuberosity, the hips must be properly placed. At present, the application position of most pelvic correction belts is incorrect, and they are not even distinguished from abdominal belts. They are applied on the abdomen, which will not have the expected effect in helping to retract the pelvis.

Many pregnant women have reported that some pelvic belts often do not move up or down after use, and are completely useless. A little medical knowledge will tell you that the pelvis is located in the middle of the human body. Due to the protrusions of the femoral head and buttocks in the hips, it is diamond-shaped when viewed from the front and side. Therefore, ordinary pelvic correction belts cannot be fixed in this position due to design defects and acceptability. It is inevitable that they will move up or down, which will directly affect the expected effect of use. Pregnant women should be careful when choosing products.
