How to take care of the baby after a normal birth

When giving birth, women can choose to have a natural birth or a caesarean section. The choice of specific method needs to be determined based on the development of the fetus and the physical condition of the mother. After giving birth, there will be some differences in the confinement period for both parties, but most of them are the same. So, how should you take care of yourself after a normal birth? In fact, there is no difference from ordinary confinement. You just need to replenish the body with more nutrition.

Generally speaking, there are many things to pay attention to during a normal childbirth and confinement period, not only in terms of diet, but also in daily routine and behavior. The most important point is to maintain a happy mood. In fact, many mothers will suffer from postpartum depression, which is very harmful to both pregnant women and babies. This is why it is important for mothers and babies to maintain a good mood after delivery. The requirements for the living environment of the parturient are also very high. The parturient's room needs to be ventilated frequently, and it is generally most appropriate to keep the room temperature at around 25-28 degrees.

Using an air purifier in the bedroom can effectively filter harmful media in the air, allowing new mothers to breathe healthy air. It should be noted that because babies often sleep with their mothers, and babies need adequate sleep, and babies are very sensitive, so remember to adjust the air purifier to sleep mode and remember not to disturb the baby's sleep. If it is summer, be careful not to let pregnant women face the air outlet because this is likely to make them catch a cold. Because there is a lot of secretions in the lower body of postpartum women, it is generally necessary to wash it with warm water and keep it clean and dry. During the confinement period, you should choose a toothbrush with soft bristles to avoid excessive stimulation to your teeth. You should also pay attention to your oral health at all times during the confinement period and do not blindly believe the old rule of "not brushing your teeth during confinement".

During the confinement period, mothers also have requirements on their diet, the most important of which is to avoid raw and cold food. The timing of taking tonic food is also important. You cannot take a lot of tonic food at the beginning. Instead, you have to choose the right period to make sure it is light and nutritious, eat appropriate amounts of fruits, supplement vitamins, and properly match meat and vegetable foods.
