What are the dangers of crying during confinement?

The nervous system of parturient women is very sensitive, and many of them are suspicious and changeable and very fragile, so many parturient women will cry just after giving birth. In fact, this situation is very common. This is mainly due to emotional instability after giving birth, coupled with an increase in the body's hormone function. Reasonable adjustment is enough, because crying and bad emotions will affect physical health.

Why should pregnant women pay attention to maintaining a good mood?

According to statistics, about 50% to 70% of women are prone to tearfulness, emotional instability, temper tantrums, loss of appetite, insomnia, depression, and even thoughts of divorce due to trivial matters after childbirth. Most of them can heal themselves after a few days. For the health of the mother, family members should pay more attention to and be considerate of the mother. The mother herself should also pay attention to self-psychological adjustment, learn self-restraint, and digest the emotional changes in the postpartum period by focusing on breastfeeding the baby. As a husband, you should stay with your wife more often, help with housework and take care of the baby, so that the mother can always be in a good mood.

Here are some of the causes of depression:

First of all, the changes in the endocrine system before and after delivery, especially the significant changes in estrogen in the body, cause emotional instability.

Secondly, social factors, living environment and individual factors of the mother, etc. For example: the mother has a strong personality and wants to achieve everything; she is under great work pressure; she is dissatisfied with the nursing and health care provided by the medical institution during pregnancy and delivery; she suffers from diseases of the mother or the newborn due to difficult labor; she is too tired after delivery and her family, especially her husband, does not care enough about her; she is not mentally prepared for some unexpected situations, such as she does not have enough knowledge of caring for the baby and lacks parenting knowledge, etc.

So, how to treat this kind of depression during the confinement period?

1. The mothers can communicate with each other during the centralized confinement period;

2. Nurses, family members, and husbands should communicate more with the parturient;

3. Family relationships should be harmonious;

4. Maternal self-regulation;

5. Let me emphasize that husbands need to understand and care about their wives more:

First of all, the husband should understand the series of physiological and psychological changes his wife undergoes after childbirth, and should be more caring, comforting and considerate to his wife.

Secondly, you should help your wife take care of the baby, do more housework, and give her more rest time.

Again, look forward to a better future with your wife, think more about your baby's bright future, and avoid feeling worried, nervous, or panicked.

In short, it is necessary to create a comfortable, warm, pleasant and joyful confinement recuperation environment for the mother, help her to eliminate the mental stress at any time, and enable her to maintain a healthy mentality, optimistic mood and strong will during the confinement period.
