Postpartum recovery methods for new mothers

There are many things that women need to pay attention to after giving birth. Diet is the first choice. Women cannot eat arbitrarily after giving birth, otherwise it will not help their health. Especially in the first few days after giving birth, they cannot eat foods with too high nutritional value. At this time, the body cannot absorb too many nutrients. Excessive supplementation of nutrients will cause a burden on the body. So what are the recovery methods for new mothers after giving birth?

Postpartum recovery methods for new mothers:

1. Breastfeed as soon as possible: After giving birth, women's breasts will become swollen due to congestion, so women should breastfeed as soon as possible to stimulate the secretion of milk sweat, which is of great benefit to future breastfeeding. It can also promote uterine contraction and is very helpful for body recovery.

2. Maintain good personal hygiene: Since women will have more vaginal secretions during the confinement period, it is recommended that women use warm water to clean the vulva every day, change underwear frequently, and take a bath frequently, but never take a bath in a tub to avoid infection due to dirty water. Therefore, it is better to take a bath after the secretion.

3. Sexual life should be moderate: Women are prohibited from having sexual intercourse within one month after giving birth. This is mainly because the wound in the uterus has not been completely healed. If you have sexual intercourse at this time, it is easy to be infected by bacteria, which will then cause gynecological inflammation and affect the body's recovery.

4. Pay attention to rest: Since childbirth will cause extreme fatigue to the mother's body and mind, the mother should pay attention to ensure adequate rest after childbirth. During the confinement period and breastfeeding period, you should eat high-nutrition, high-calorie, easily digestible food and drink plenty of water to promote rapid recovery of the body and ensure adequate milk supply.

5. Get out of bed and move around as soon as possible: Usually women can get out of bed and move around the day after giving birth, but they must pay attention to keeping warm and avoid being exposed to cold or wind. In addition, they can also do some simple exercises or postpartum gymnastics every day under the guidance of medical staff to help recovery and maintain a good body shape.

6. Do a good job of postpartum check-up: Women should go to the hospital for a postpartum check-up after the confinement period. This will allow them to promptly understand whether their body has recovered well after childbirth. If they are attacked by an illness during the confinement period, it can be discovered in time and treatment measures can be taken in time.

After understanding the postpartum recovery methods for new mothers, women can follow the above methods after giving birth. However, diet is still very important for improving all aspects of women's bodies. If women want to recover quickly after giving birth, they should match food reasonably and eat more vegetables and fruits, which are beneficial to the consumption of body fat.
