How long does it take to go out after the scientific confinement period?

During the confinement period, you should pay attention to rest and avoid overwork. It is better for mothers to eat some warm and nourishing foods during the confinement period, such as chicken soup, pigeon soup, pork rib soup and other foods. It is best not to go out too early during the confinement period to avoid catching a cold or contracting confinement diseases. Some mothers don’t know how long they can go out after the confinement period. How long can they go out after the confinement period scientifically? Let’s take a look at it next.

1. How long after the scientific confinement period can you go out?

It is best to go out after one month. After giving birth, you must rest at home, pay attention to sleep, and don't let yourself get tired again, but never lie in bed for a whole month. Generally, you can get out of bed 3 days after giving birth and do some light activities. You should insist on proper physical exercise during the confinement period, and do some postpartum gymnastics or yoga, which can help you get back in shape as soon as possible.

2. What should you pay attention to during confinement?

1. People's physiques are different, so the food chosen for each mother is also different. As long as you figure out the mother's constitution (generally divided into cold constitution, hot constitution, and neutral constitution) and arrange food reasonably, it can greatly help the mother recover.

2. The choice of room is very important. The ventilation of the room should be determined according to the physical condition of the mother and the changes of the four seasons. The lighting should also be appropriate. Avoid being too hot in the summer and have sunshine in the winter to keep the room warm. The temperature and humidity of the room are different throughout the year. The indoor temperature should be kept at about 25~26℃ and the humidity at about 50%~60%. Of course, the room must be clean, and ensure that the mother's room is warm, comfortable and clean.

3. Some people may ask, if the temperature and humidity in the room are comfortable, can you wear whatever you want? In fact, this is a misunderstanding. It is usually best for new mothers to wear long clothes, long pants and socks to prevent catching a cold and protect their joints from wind and cold. In summer, clothes need to keep warm and dissipate heat, so it is generally better to choose cotton.

4. Generally, some exercises should be avoided during confinement, but appropriate exercise within the range allowed by the body will help the body recover. Mothers who give birth naturally can usually move around indoors 8-12 hours after giving birth. After resting for a few days, they can walk slowly in the room and do some pelvic exercises. After getting used to this exercise, they can push the baby in a stroller, but not for too long.

5. Maintain good personal hygiene to prevent the occurrence of some gynecological diseases, which is also a guarantee for physical recovery and a good body in the future. Get enough rest and be in good spirits.

6. You may experience physical discomfort during the confinement period. To a certain extent, you should go to the hospital for a check-up and listen to the doctor's advice.

7. Some taboos to note:

1) You should not be exposed to wind during confinement. This is the most important thing to do because you will be weak after childbirth. Avoiding wind may cause colds, rheumatism, joint pain and other diseases.

2) Do not watch TV or read for a long time, as this will not only affect your eyesight but also easily cause emotional disorders.

3) Avoid contact with water, especially do not wash your hair. Catching a cold can easily cause a headache.

4) Do not eat raw or cold food. Your physical condition will be poor after childbirth. Raw or cold food will cause gastrointestinal disorders, which is not conducive to physical recovery and will also affect the baby through breast milk.

3. Reminder

There are still many details to consider, which can only be discovered when the mother is in the confinement period. As long as she is careful and well taken care of by her relatives, and pays attention to herself, she will be able to recover well in these thirty to forty days.
