Can I wear slimming clothes during breastfeeding?

People with common sense know that pregnant women cannot wear high heels, tight clothes, or make-up during pregnancy. These are all for the sake of the baby. During breastfeeding, one cannot relax their vigilance. Every move of the mother will have a great impact on the baby. Women who are breastfeeding should try to wear loose clothes, because breastfeeding requires relaxation of the breasts. Wearing too tight clothes will hinder blood circulation and is not conducive to physical recovery. So can slimming clothes be worn during breastfeeding?

Can I wear shapewear while breastfeeding?

1. If there is no abnormality in lochia after normal delivery and the pain caused by uterine reduction is within the normal range, you can wear a body shaper after normal delivery. You can only wear a body shaper when there is no abnormality in lochia and the uterus contracts normally. Because body shapers exert a certain amount of pressure on the body to tighten fat and loose flesh, and the uterus will not return to its non-pregnant state until six weeks after delivery, so using body shapers or restraints during this period will help repair the uterus.

2. The best time to recover after a caesarean section is six months after delivery, and you can wear a body shaper. Because you have to wait for the wounds from the caesarean section to heal, the energy consumed and the endocrine effects will put your body in a state of high metabolism. Moreover, it takes a certain amount of time for the wound to recover after a cesarean section. Wearing a body shaper too early can easily lead to wound inflammation, poor recovery, etc. If you wait until the cesarean section wound has healed before wearing a body shaper, it will be effective in helping the internal organs that were displaced during pregnancy return to their original positions and help speed up the discharge of lochia.

3. When wearing a body shaper after childbirth, pay attention to breathability to prevent excessive heat and sweat from causing wound inflammation. It is best not to use a one-piece body shaper as it is not conducive to perineal care and removal of lochia during the postpartum period. When wearing shapewear after childbirth, be sure to change and wash it frequently and keep it dry. And the wearing time of postpartum body shaping garment should not be too long.

What clothes should I wear during breastfeeding?

1. Choose clothes with complex patterns so that even if the mother spills milk, it will not be noticeable. Avoid solid, tight-fitting, light-colored clothing.

2. It is best to choose a loose sports shirt-style top that can be pulled from the waist to the chest, which can help you cover the exposed abdomen when the baby is feeding.

3. You can choose a loose top specially for breastfeeding mothers, which usually has an inconspicuous pleated opening on the chest.
