What to do if you have a bad stomach during confinement

The confinement period of a mother is a very important period in her life. If her gastrointestinal health is not good during this period, the mother may not be able to absorb enough nutrients, resulting in malnutrition and insufficient milk. In severe cases, it may even cause difficulty in breastfeeding. Therefore, during this period, we should pay special attention to the gastrointestinal absorption of the mother, and give her some food that is easy to absorb and digest and rich in nutrients.

Start with your daily routine. At least three meals a day should be eaten at regular times and in regular quantities. It is best to set a schedule for yourself and then strictly adhere to it. People with poor gastric digestion function will feel full after eating a little, and will feel bloated if they eat a little more. Especially if they eat more at night, the bloating in the stomach will affect their sleep.

Hard, fibrous foods are difficult to digest. Therefore, it is recommended to eat small meals frequently. If it is not time for a main meal yet, you can supplement some food, but not too much. You must remember that this is not a main meal and you still have to eat your main meal as normal. The food should be soft and loose. It is not advisable to eat too much tough and refreshing food because these things are the most difficult to digest. It is best to drink soup before meals, as drinking it after meals will increase digestion difficulties.

Postpartum women have poor stomachs and should pay attention to controlling their diet. Remember not to overeat and eat at regular times and in regular amounts. If a patient has a weak gastrointestinal tract, they should eat small and frequent meals in their daily lives. This can not only reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, but also provide the body with various nutrients needed. Postpartum women should not eat greasy food all the time. They can eat some green vegetables to regulate the stomach and induce appetite.
