What will happen if you move around frequently during confinement?

Girls need to rest for more than a month after giving birth. This month is a critical period. If women do not replenish their nutrition and take good care of their bodies, their physical fitness will be greatly reduced in the later period. From ancient times to the present, we have seen that mothers spend most of their time lying in bed during the confinement period, occasionally walking around while holding the baby. What will happen if you move around frequently during confinement?

During the confinement period, you can consider resting in bed more. Getting out of bed and walking around appropriately will help your body recover. Pay attention to deciding the time of walking according to your physical condition.

Confinement refers to the period of one month or more that a pregnant woman takes to recuperate after giving birth. The practice of confinement can be traced back to the "Book of Rites" in the Western Han Dynasty, where it was called "Yuenei". It has a history of more than 2,000 years and is a necessary ritual behavior after childbirth. From the perspective of sociology and medicine, "confinement month" is a critical period to help mothers smoothly pass through the physiological and psychological transitions in their lives.

Diet: Eat fruits and vegetables

Vegetables and fruits have always been classified as raw and cold foods, and are generally believed to have adverse effects on the gastrointestinal tract of postpartum women. In fact, this statement is wrong. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and plant protein, which are very helpful for the mother's physical recovery and increase of milk. (Question: The elders said that it is not suitable to eat fruits during the confinement period, as eating fruits will stop the production of milk. Unless you do not plan to breastfeed, you can eat fruits to increase nutrition.) Fruits that can be eaten during the confinement period: 1. Kiwi 2. Durian 3. Apple 4. Papaya 5. Olive 6. Grape 7. Pineapple 8. Banana 9. Longan 10. Hawthorn.

Precautions for eating fruit during confinement

1. Don’t eat too many cold fruits, especially in the first few days after delivery, when the spleen and stomach are weak, so it’s best not to eat too many pears and watermelons.

2. You can eat some fruit after meals or between meals, so as not to increase the burden on the digestive tract.

3. Don’t eat fruits that are too cold. Fruit that has just been taken out of the refrigerator should be left at room temperature for a while before eating.

4. Pay attention to cleanliness when eating fruits. Wash them thoroughly or peel them before eating to avoid diarrhea.

Don't rush to drink milk-inducing soup

Many elders believe that drinking more soup can replenish the lost water in the mother's body and quickly increase the secretion of milk. However, experts say that the prerequisite for milk production is that all mammary ducts are unobstructed so that the secreted milk will not be blocked and cause breast pain.

Experts suggest: Don't rush to drink milk-inducing soup after delivery. You should let the baby suck the mother's breast first to make the milk ducts unblocked, and then use soup to supplement. Remember not to let the mother drink too much greasy soup, which will continuously increase the mother's body fat content and have a certain impact on the baby.
