Can I turn on the air conditioner during confinement in summer?

Confinement is a long-standing theme for women and also a month-long ordeal. Especially for women who are in confinement in the summer, many people will tell you that you cannot turn on the air conditioner, use a fan, take a bath or wash your hair, and keeping the new mother and baby in an unventilated room is really torturous and unbearable. So, can you turn on the air conditioner during the summer confinement period?

A woman who has just given birth has active sweat glands and sweats easily. It doesn't mean that you can't turn on the air conditioner, but you need to pay attention to some details:

1. Avoid being too close to the air outlet

Whether you turn on the air conditioner or an electric fan, as long as it can lower the temperature in the room, it will be fine. Since the mother has just given birth and her vital energy is deficient, she is easily attacked by wind and cold, which can cause postpartum wind. Therefore, when using the air conditioner or electric fan, avoid direct wind blowing on your body. If you do, you can learn from my method.

2. The temperature cannot be adjusted too low

New mothers who have just given birth sweat easily, but in fact, it is just cold sweat. New mothers must think that since they can turn on the air conditioner, they should lower the temperature! But new mothers must remember that they must not be greedy for coolness, and the temperature cannot be too low. It is fine as long as they don’t feel hot. If the indoor temperature is too low, it is easy to catch a cold. In addition, if the temperature is too low, sweat in the body cannot be discharged, which is not conducive to body recovery and metabolism.

3. Wear long clothes and long pants

Even when you are confined after childbirth in the summer, you should wear long clothes and long pants. If the air conditioner is on indoors, try to wear socks and shoes with heels.
