There are three reasons for the protruding abdomen after childbirth

After giving birth, many women will feel that their belly has become much bigger than before, which is very obvious especially when they are wearing clothes. In fact, the belly after childbirth will not protrude for no reason. Since the postpartum recovery has not reached the ideal state, the belly will not reach its previous level. Next, this article provides methods to help mothers restore their protruding abdomen. Let’s take a look.

1. What are the reasons for abdominal protrusion after childbirth?

1. The mother's lower abdomen bulges during pregnancy and will not disappear immediately after giving birth. The process of returning to its original position is relatively slow, and some may never return.

2. It may be caused by obesity and it is not a big problem. After becoming obese, fat easily accumulates in the abdomen, and fat also attaches to the internal organs in the abdominal cavity, so the abdomen will be larger.

Second postpartum women's lower abdomen protrusion recovery method

1. The belly band is a white gauze belt about 1200 cm long and 15 cm wide. Two should be prepared for replacement. Since the mother needs to rest in bed and avoid wind, a belly band tied around the abdomen may cause sweating. When this happens, the mother needs to remove the belly band in time and wipe the abdomen dry to prevent the abdomen from getting cold. At the same time, put on a clean belly band. It should be noted that if the mother uses a sticky corset or pants, it will not only fail to prevent the sagging of the internal organs, but may compress the internal organs, leading to poor blood circulation, deformation of the internal organs or bloating, causing difficulty in breathing or lower abdominal protrusion.

2. In addition to wearing a belly band, mothers should also pay attention to rest during the confinement period. Within two weeks after delivery, except for eating and going to the toilet, they should try to rest in bed. It is not advisable to walk around often or do strenuous exercise. Do not lift heavy objects within six months after delivery to prevent sagging of internal organs and causing back pain. Climbing stairs should be prohibited during the confinement period.
