What is the most effective way to sweat after childbirth?

The method of sweating after childbirth requires some attention. You can choose to drink soup to induce sweating, or drink some wine appropriately. After drinking, lie down and cover yourself with a quilt in time, which can help sweating. However, be careful not to rush to take a shower after sweating is over.

1. Make the bed: In order to prevent the mattress from getting wet and difficult to wash, you should lay a waterproof layer on the mattress in advance, and then lay a thicker layer of absorbent sheets or towel blankets. Prepare a highly absorbent sheet or towel blanket to cover yourself when you sweat, and two quilts to cover yourself when you sweat.

2. Dressing: I wore pure cotton spring and autumn clothes, pure cotton socks, and a woolen hat. The confinement nanny felt that my neck was exposed, so she put a scarf on me.

3. Drink soup: The sweating soup should be drunk while it is hot. The specific amount to drink depends on your daily alcohol tolerance and your reaction to the sweating soup. The confinement nanny heard that I could drink one pound of liquor before I had a baby, and she was worried that one pound of liquor would not be enough for me to sweat. Facts proved that her worry was unnecessary. After giving birth, I have no alcohol tolerance at all. But I didn't know until I practiced it. I thought I could drink a lot, so I picked up the big bowl and gulped down most of it. I stopped because I felt too full. The soup was hot and spicy and tasted really bad! !

4. Cover up sweat: When drinking soup, you should sit in the quilt. Lie down quickly after drinking. Cover yourself with a towel blanket first, and then cover yourself with a quilt. In summer, you can cover yourself with less, and in winter, you can cover yourself with two quilts. The rule is that the entire body except the eyes must be covered tightly, the doors and windows in the room must be closed, and there must be no draft. After drinking the soup, I felt the heat slowly spreading from my stomach to the outside. I was prone to sweating during the confinement period, and after a while, I started to sweat profusely.

5. Pay attention to prevent heatstroke: When sweating, because there are many quilts to cover, plus drinking hot soup that makes you sweat, and the room is not ventilated, so there must be someone to accompany you. Do not let the mother fall asleep, and replenish her with water at any time (feed her water with a straw cup every once in a while).

6. What does it mean to sweat thoroughly: When you sweat, you will feel that your pores are open, and you can feel the sweat flowing out of your body, as if bringing out all the bad things in your body. Moreover, when you sweat, you sweat from the stomach towards the head and feet. The confinement nanny would ask me every once in a while where I felt the sweat was coming from, and I could really feel it. If you feel that you don’t sweat much, you can drink more sweat-inducing soup. The general sweating time is about one and a half hours. Don’t sweat too long as it will cause dehydration and fatigue. After I finished sweating, my underwear, hat, bed sheets, and towels were all wet. I don't know how much sweat I sweated.

7. End of sweating: One and a half hours of sweating time is almost up. After sweating is over, don’t rush to get out of the bed. First, remove one quilt to ventilate. Change the wet clothes inside the quilt, put on clean clothes before getting out of the bed.

8. Don’t rush to take a shower: after sweating, you will feel that your skin is extremely smooth and tender, just like a freshly peeled boiled egg, really! ! Don't rush to take a shower on the same day. After you stop sweating and change into dry clothes, you will feel very comfortable. In order to prevent catching a cold when taking a shower, it is recommended to take a good hot bath the next day.
