Can I go out after 28 days of confinement?

Although women are not allowed to go out during the confinement period, there are some special circumstances where the mother has to go out. Can the mother go out during the 28-day confinement period? Usually the confinement period is one month. After 28 days of confinement, the body of a woman has almost recovered, so she can go out as long as she keeps warm. Let's learn more about the details together.

1. How many days after confinement can I go out?

Usually women are very weak after giving birth. The recovery time during the confinement period varies according to each person's physical condition. Generally, the confinement period is 28 to 42 days. If you can fully recover within 28 days, you can leave the confinement period; if you still feel very weak after 28 days of confinement, you can extend it to 42 days to continue to recover your body.

In fact, you can go out during the confinement period, but you can't go out for too long or too often. It's okay to go out occasionally to get some fresh air. During the confinement period, you must not catch a cold, otherwise you will get confinement disease, which will affect your future life.

2. What should I pay attention to during confinement?

1. Take rest

Rest is the top priority during confinement. After giving birth, you must rest at home, pay attention to sleep, and don't let yourself get too tired, but also be careful not to lie in bed for the entire month. Usually, on the second day after the baby is born, the mother should walk around and exercise her body to help with postpartum recovery.

2. Pay attention to the recovery of the uterus

After delivery, you should pay attention to the recovery of the uterus and the changes in the color of the lochia. Under normal circumstances, the lochia should change from red to white, the amount should gradually decrease, and the smell should change from bloody to none. Generally, the lochia should be discharged after one month. If the lochia is not clear or abnormal, you should see a doctor in time. Remember to go to the hospital for a postpartum check-up 6-8 weeks after delivery.

3. Keep a happy spirit

Due to physiological changes, women after childbirth are more mentally fragile, and coupled with increased stress, they are likely to develop postpartum depression. Therefore, it is important to maintain a happy atmosphere at home, especially the husband should be more considerate of his wife and give her support both spiritually and in life.

How many days after the confinement period can you go out? Although you can go out during the confinement period, it is recommended that mothers go out less. If you catch a cold when going out at this time, you may suffer from postpartum disease and your body will be greatly harmed. In fact, the most important thing during the confinement period is to get more rest, and mothers should not rush to go out.
