The dangers of climbing stairs after childbirth

Some women hardly get out of bed or move around during the confinement period, because they feel that if they are not used to getting out of bed and moving around, they may ruin their bodies. But in fact, they should also exercise appropriately during the confinement period. If they stay in bed all the time, it will be harmful to the body. In order to restore their figure, some women even climb stairs during the confinement period. So what are the dangers of climbing stairs after giving birth?

The harm of climbing stairs during confinement

1. Climbing stairs during confinement is not good for uterine recovery

Young people nowadays are not strict about this aspect, but for the sake of your own health, it is better not to climb stairs during the confinement period, because the uterus is in the recovery period at this time, so be patient for another month!

2. Climbing stairs during confinement is bad for your knees

During pregnancy, women will gain 20 to 30 pounds, which will increase the burden on their legs and knees. During the confinement period, the bones and muscles of the whole body are resting and recovering. Climbing stairs during this period can easily hurt the knees.

3. Climbing stairs during confinement is bad for your feet

In real life, many women after giving birth find that they cannot walk as well as before, and their heels hurt after walking for a long time. This is because you got out of bed too early during the confinement period and walked too much, which injured the tendons in the base of your feet. It is easier to hurt your feet when climbing stairs, so you should rest more during the confinement period.

The three stages of confinement for women

Specifically, divide the month after delivery into weeks, and eat different foods according to your needs each week:

In the first week, the main thing is to excrete excess water, toxins and lochia from the body. Drink Shenghua Soup and eat fried pork liver with sesame oil every day.

In the second week, the focus is on strengthening bones, waist and kidney functions, and restoring the pelvis. Eating fried kidneys and Eucommia powder every day can help relieve bone pain in the coccyx and other areas.

From the third week to one month, at this time, what needs to be discharged has been discharged, and the main food to eat is sesame oil chicken to nourish the body. Always remember that sesame oil chicken can only be absorbed by the body after toxins are eliminated, otherwise it will accumulate in the body and become excess fat.

Precautions and care methods for women during confinement

1. Be sure to rest for one month or one and a half months. For two weeks after delivery, you must stay in bed except for eating and going to the bathroom. If you sit or walk around frequently, it may cause uterine prolapse.

2. Prepare two or three strips of white gauze with a width of about 30-40 cm and a length that can wrap around the abdomen 12 and a half times. After delivery, you should tie a belly band tightly to prevent your internal organs from sagging. Prolapse of internal organs will lead to gynecological diseases, protruding abdomen and ugly body shape. Wearing a belly band can also improve the condition of an obvious lower abdomen before childbirth. Belly bands cannot be replaced by ordinary trousers and abdominal belts. Because not only do they have no effect, they also have a counterproductive effect.

3. In the first two weeks, you can only use warm wine water for sponge bath.

The method is to boil half water and half rice wine, add a little salt, soak a towel in it, wring it dry, and rub it on your body. You can take a shower from the third week onwards and take a bath after the full moon
