Belly belts have many functions. Some people may wonder, is it necessary to use a belly belt for natural childbirth? Belly belts can also be used for natural childbirth, but there are many precautions when using them. They cannot be used too early. Generally, they can only be used three days after delivery, and the belly belt should be taken off when sleeping and eating. Let us learn more about the relevant knowledge in this regard below. 1. Do you need to use a belly belt for a normal birth? For women who have undergone cesarean section, the belly belt can also fix the wound and prevent it from cracking, but the main function of the belly belt is to support the weak abdominal tissue after delivery, prevent the internal organs from sagging, and promote the body's recovery. No matter it is a natural birth or a cesarean section, the abdomen after the baby is delivered is like a stretched pocket. The sagging abdomen cannot stably protect the internal organs in the abdomen. Under the action of gravity, the internal organs in the abdomen may sag and be damaged. Therefore, it is not necessary to use a belly belt for normal childbirth, but using a belly belt correctly can better protect your body. 2. The benefits of using a belly belt after a normal birth Women who give birth naturally can use a belly belt after giving birth. Its main purpose is to restore the uterus. The belly belt can promote the contraction of the uterus and help the body's functions slowly recover. In addition, using a belly belt after childbirth increases the pressure on the abdominal cavity, prevents sagging of internal organs, can reduce postpartum bleeding, and help discharge lochia, which has a positive effect on postpartum recovery. 3. Disadvantages of using a belly belt after normal delivery During pregnancy, women's abdominal pressure continues to rise. This pressure will compress the pelvic floor and cause certain damage to the function and structure of the pelvic floor. If these injuries are not recovered after delivery, women are prone to abnormal conditions such as urinary incontinence, uterine prolapse, and bulging of the anterior and posterior vaginal walls. It can be said that the key to postpartum body recovery lies in the recovery of pelvic floor function, and the belly belt not only cannot help to tighten the abdomen, but will further increase abdominal pressure and affect the recovery of pelvic floor function. Because of the tightness, it is not conducive to blood circulation and skin metabolism in the waist and abdomen, and may cause dermatitis. |
