What causes diarrhea in parturient women?

If you have diarrhea during the confinement period, it is very likely caused by a viral infection, catching a cold, or eating unhygienic food. When you have diarrhea, don't eat too much. Keep warm and avoid catching a cold. Drink more hot water. You can eat some hot food, nutritious and easily digestible food. It will usually get better in two days.

Precautions

1. Don’t cry too often. During the confinement period, due to the change of identity, changes in hormones in the body, misunderstanding of family members, etc., new mothers are prone to depression and tears. However, frequent crying not only harms the mother’s eyes, but also affects the body’s recovery and increases the possibility of postpartum depression. Therefore, during the confinement period, you must learn to control your emotions, communicate more with your family when you encounter some troubles, listen to some relaxing music or read some parenting books to ease your mood.

2. Avoid working too hard for long periods of time. Many mothers said that during the confinement period, they were worried that their mother-in-law would not be able to take good care of the child, so they took care of the child themselves, feeding and changing diapers themselves, and sometimes even cooking for themselves, without getting a good rest at all. After the confinement period, I often suffer from back pain and various discomforts. These are the symptoms left over from the confinement period. During childbirth, the mother's body is extremely exhausted, and both her body and mind are damaged. The confinement period is a period for the mother to recuperate and repair herself both physically and mentally. If the mother is still often overworked at this time, it will only increase the burden on her body. When she gets older, various joint pains are inevitable.

3. Do not eat raw, cold or spicy food. Mothers should eat more light, easily digestible food and drink more nutritious soup within one month after delivery. However, it is best not to eat spicy and cold foods, because spicy foods can easily make the mother get inflamed and will also affect the baby through breast milk. Raw and cold food can easily damage the spleen and stomach and affect digestive function. Therefore, mothers must not eat food that is harmful to both the baby and themselves because of greed.
