Our country's emphasis on confinement has never changed since ancient times, and in today's society with advanced thinking and developed economy, confinement is still highly valued, which is enough to prove that it is an extremely important stage for the recovery of postpartum women. There are indeed many drawbacks to the traditional way of confinement, and now affected by foreign and more scientific knowledge, some of the regulations for traditional confinement have also changed, the most obvious is the aspect of bathing.
Women who do not bathe for 42 days and bathe once every three days have different situations after confinement
Mom Kiki said: "After pregnancy, I have always been afraid of the arrival of the confinement, thinking that the whole confinement does not bathe and do not wash my hair feels itchy, and later see that foreigners do not sit in confinement, and japanese women can even drink cold water and eat iced fruits after giving birth, plus the doctor also said that the confinement can be bathed, which is reassuring." The moon catches up with the cold, the mother-in-law and the mother do not let me take a bath, but I take the foreigner's approach and the doctor's words to refute them, and then take a bath for three days, it feels no big deal, that is, after the confinement, I always love the cold, there is a little wind and grass on the sick, and a cloudy day the whole body joint pain, the mother-in-law said that it was caused by the bath in the month, and now I also have a little doubt about whether I washed too often."
Bao Mama Chen Ying said: "Her mother has always had headaches, she said that when she was confined, she caught up with her grandmother who was sick and no one took care of her, and she was anxious and hard to raise her months, so when I sat in confinement, she had full authority to take care of it, not to mention that she was particularly strict, and the food, clothing, housing, and transportation were very tight, taking a bath? That is really don't even think about it, fortunately it is winter, a month down the body is very good, that is, a bath on the body of the mud feeling can build a house. Go to the hospital to review the doctor also said that the recovery is good, but I heard that when I did not take a bath for a month, the doctor also said that it was not very good, if it was in the summer, it would be very easy to cause bacterial infection. But still thanks to the mother, in addition to not bathing this shadow is still very comfortable, now I am no different from when I did not have children, and my health is particularly good."
Whether you can take a bath in the middle of the month, how to bathe is actually a very important thing, the correct bathing time and way is related to the recovery of the mother's body in the confinement. So can you take a bath during the confinement period? Is it appropriate for us to Chinese? What should the doctor pay attention to when he says he can take a bath?
In fact, it is indeed possible to take a bath during the month, because the human metabolism will excrete a lot of sweat and dirt, especially the speed of maternal metabolism is faster, if you do not pay attention to cleaning, there will be infections. However, some of the postpartum practices of foreigners are not suitable for us, because we have different physiques and different daily behavior habits.
Take Japan, Japanese women recover quickly after childbirth, and they can also drink ice drinks and eat cold fruits after childbirth, you can take a bath at will, this is because Japan is a country that attaches importance to health, national sports have long become a daily routine, their physique is indeed better than ours, and Japanese women also attach great importance to sports after childbirth, so they recover faster, we can not fully imitate.
For some of the traditional confinement methods we should improve, but it is definitely not the same as being able to act arbitrarily, as far as bathing is concerned, even if even doctors say that they can wash, we must definitely pay attention to these matters.
Be sure to pay attention to the time of bathing, generally after childbirth should be in the lochia flow is not too strong before bathing, so as to prevent the occurrence of infection. Normal birth of the mother is recommended to take a bath after 3 to 7 days after childbirth, generally the body recovery is relatively fast, you can take a bath after 3 days after childbirth, but those who have experienced lateral cutting, must wait for the wound to have a basic recovery and then go to the bath, which requires waiting for a few more days, and the caesarean section of the mother is best to wait until 2 weeks later to wash, after all, after experiencing abdominal surgery, once the infection occurs is very guilty, we can refer to the caesarean section knife fat liquefaction, pain and wound difficulty to heal on the one hand, Even after healing, the knife edge will leave a mark, which will look more "shocking".
It should also be noted that the bath must take the way of showering, can not bathe, but also to strictly control the room temperature and water temperature do not get cold, especially in winter, if the room temperature can not reach it, bear with it, in order to prevent the cold from falling into the confinement disease.
It is worth noting that although you can take a bath in the month, but do not wash too long and too frequently, after all, the body is still in the recovery stage, maintain basic hygiene, do not pursue cleanliness too much. Moreover, for some women with poor physique and usually fatigue and dizziness, they should delay the bath time to avoid the occurrence of lack of oxygen and fainting during the bath.
Confinement is a compensation for women after childbirth, although there are many unbearable places in the middle, such as bathing, and for example, diet can not eat only what they like, or comparable to the ancient "grounded" can not go out, but these 42 days are not long, but it is to lay the foundation for living in the future. It is said that the mother is superman, if there is no good body, how to do the "superman" to shield the child from the wind and rain?
