What else should I avoid after the confinement period?

When the mother is out of the confinement period, she cannot do whatever she wants. She should be aware of some precautions at this time. She should not overwork. After the baby is one month old, the mother's body has not fully recovered. At this time, she should avoid fatigue, not stand for long periods of time, and it is best not to touch cold water. You should control your sex life and dress warmly. It is also important to regulate your diet at this time.

1. Don’t overwork

Although you are out of confinement, your body has not fully recovered and the loss of qi and blood has not yet fully recovered. Therefore, fatigue will consume physical energy, especially not lifting heavy objects. Fatigue delays recovery and may also cause illness, such as anemia, dizziness, fatigue, and uterine prolapse. Especially breastfeeding mothers should pay more attention to rest so that they can produce more milk.

2. Unable to stand or walk for a long time

A new mother, who gave birth by caesarean section, went shopping with her friends a few days after her full month. After walking around for more than three hours, she felt a stomachache when she got home, and fluid was oozing out of the cesarean section incision. She was so scared that she lay quietly in bed and dared not move. Mothers who give birth by caesarean section recover more slowly than those who give birth naturally, so it is best to take good care of yourself within 100 days. After all, it is an operation! Mothers who give birth naturally cannot stand or walk for a long time. In addition, many mothers like to bend over when bathing their babies and changing their diapers, which can also cause back pain.

3. Don’t touch cold water

Some mothers wash their hands and towels with cold water directly after the confinement period to save trouble. This is not advisable. Even in summer, it is best to use water that has been exposed to the sun. Cold water is a terrible thing. The cold air will invade your joints and cause pain in your finger joints. A mother had just finished her confinement. She washed a towel with cold water, wet the cuff a little and put it on her wrist. As a result, her wrist hurt as if it was broken. Therefore, even after the confinement period, new mothers should not rush to touch cold water.

4. Be moderate in sex

After ten months of pregnancy, both husband and wife have been feeling depressed for too long, so many fathers think that they can have sex as they please after the confinement period. This is not possible. Because it takes 6-8 weeks for the uterus to recover, it is best to wait 42 days before having sex.

5. Pay attention to keeping warm when dressing

When going out after the full moon, mothers should not only think about their demeanor but ignore the temperature. Especially when the weather is cold, you must pay attention to keeping warm and not wear too thin clothes. The top should cover the waist, do not wear cropped pants that expose the ankles, wear socks, and wear a mask and hat. Especially after taking a bath, you should put on your clothes in time to avoid catching a cold.
