Wash your hair and take a shower during confinement
It can really be arranged
In the summer confinement, I can't bear to think about not washing my hair and bathing.
In the past, it was because the technology was not developed, the warmth effect was not good, and there was no such a good thing as a hair dryer, and it was understandable that it was not allowed to wash the hair.
But..... Today's conditions, wash your hair during the month, dry and dry immediately, you can really have!
And long-term do not wash hair, it is easy to breed bacteria ah, the baby and the mother every day intimate contact, kiss the little face, touch the face, if not cleaned in time but will cause bacterial infection.
And not washing hair also affects the mood of the new mother after childbirth, itchy and oily, holding such a head, really can't bear every minute, postpartum is already all kinds of discomfort, but also do not let wash hair, too detrimental to physical and mental health.
Especially this summer is coming, not letting you wash your hair is even more unbearable, I have tried the longest time I have tried is 1 week, every minute I feel that the scalp is going to be cut.
After washing my hair, I feel that my whole person is refreshed, the whole person is in good condition, and my steps are light, which is really not an exaggeration.
As long as the mother is warm after giving birth, she can wash her hair and bathe:
Mothers who give birth spontaneously: You can almost take a bath in about 4 days, and it can be extended according to the degree of wound healing, and you can also wipe the bath and wash your hair when you can't take a bath.
Mothers who have a caesarean section: take a bath after the wound has healed (usually 2 weeks), during which you can scrub the bath and wash your hair, do not let water contaminate the wound, and avoid a bath to prevent vaginal infection.
Pay attention to the following points when bathing and washing your hair:
●The water temperature should be suitable and kept at about 37 degrees.
●Do not use too irritating shampoo, use ginger to wash your hair and remove dampness.
●Massage the scalp with your fingertips when washing your hair, do not scratch hard, it is best to dry it slightly with a dry towel after washing, and use a hair dryer to dry it if you are worried about cold.
●It is not recommended to go to the barbershop to wash your hair, as in summer there is often a strong air conditioner, and women are prone to cold.
●It is best to use a wooden comb to comb hair to avoid static electricity irritating the scalp.
Under the condition that the temperature is just right, it is really no problem to take a shower and dry it in time.

The three taboos of traditional confinement
In fact, it's all pits
As the old saying goes:
You can't wash your hair or take a bath during confinement!
You can't brush your teeth during confinement!
You can't eat fruits and vegetables during confinement!
Stop falling into these old pits of confinement, these things can be done during confinement, just pay a little attention.
First: you can brush your teeth during confinement
Confinement eats and eats all the time, does not brush your teeth, and be careful of gingivitis!
There was a mother, listening to the old man, who did not brush her teeth for three months after giving birth, and as a result, her gums were swollen like a pigeon egg.
During confinement, it is to eat less and eat more often, if you do not pay attention to gargling and brushing your teeth, it is easy to multiply bacteria in the mouth and cause oral diseases.
Bottom line: For dental health, moms brush their teeth regularly.
Brush your teeth once or twice a day, gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush.
After each meal, you should rinse your mouth with warm water.
Second: you can drink water during confinement
In some places, traditional methods are still adhered to, and fruit mothers should not drink water, but should drink rice wine.
In ancient times, rice wine was indeed used as a drink for confinement mothers.
At that time, there was no running water and it was difficult to ensure that the water source was clean, so cooking rice wine with sterilization effect into soup drinks was the safest way at the time.
But now there is tap water, mineral water, purified water, etc., and there is really no need for rice wine water to replace boiled water.
Important: Maternal weakness, sweating a lot, must replenish water.
For lactating mothers, water loss is more, so it is especially necessary to supplement a lot, and it is recommended to drink 8-12 glasses of water per day.
Third: confinement can eat fruits and vegetables
Confinement requires eating more meat and drinking more soup, so as to replenish the body!
Don't fall into this pit!
Just after childbirth, the intestines cannot accept too oily and nutritious food, and excessive tonic is a burden.
Skipping vegetables and fruits can also reduce the intake of vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber, affecting the amount of milk secretion and the content of vitamins and minerals in milk.
And increase the incidence of diseases such as constipation, hemorrhoids in the mother!
Focus: Pay attention to the intake of vegetables and fruits during the confinement period, so that the food is balanced, diverse and sufficient.
At the same time, it should not be excessive, so as to ensure the health of the mother and the quality of the milk.
Confinement meals should include five major categories of food: milk and substitutes, meat, fish, eggs and substitutes, vegetables, fruits and cereals.
④
Confinement comfort is the most important
The needs of the mother are the first priority
The original intention of confinement is to allow postpartum mothers to recover well, so they must sit scientifically.
Pregnant mothers list 2 major points for correct confinement in summer, mothers must not step on the pit anymore, scientific confinement, in order to recover quickly and well:
First: the environment for confinement should be comfortable
Hot summer confinement, air conditioning is definitely a lifesaver, is a heat weapon, as long as the way to turn on the air conditioner is correct, at least, mothers can confinement in a comfortable environment.
● Do not blow the air conditioner directly. The air outlet can be pasted with a piece of paper, or buy an air conditioning wind shield, the new mother can wear light long clothes and socks, not too thick, the temperature of the air conditioner should generally be controlled at about 26 ° C.
●Regular ventilation of the room. The correct approach should be to ventilate 2 to 3 times a day for 15 to 30 minutes.
● Clean the air conditioner regularly. From spring to summer, summer to winter, be sure to clean the air conditioner before turning it on, check the air filter at least once a month and replace it as needed.
Second: confinement should live a healthy life
● Rest well, rest is a top priority. It is indeed necessary to rest well after giving birth, but it is definitely not lying in bed all day, and it is necessary to walk moderately.
●Observe the discharge of lochia. Lochia usually turns from red to white, from more to less to no odor at the end, and it is drained in about a month. If it is not clean or there is an abnormality, seek medical attention in time.
●It is important to maintain mental pleasure and prevent postpartum depression. The family should be more considerate of the wife and give full support in spirit and life.
●Arrange your diet wisely. To eat soft and delicious food that is easy to digest and absorb, but also to eat small meals, reasonable meat and vegetarian, light and suitable, dry and thin, should not be too fast supplementation.
●Adhere to necessary exercise and do postpartum gymnastics. Generally, 14 days after giving birth, you can do something simple, but not too intense.
● Avoid heavy lifting and overwork. It takes a while for the uterus to recover after childbirth, to avoid some heavy lifting and so on, excessive labor. Leave these things to your husband or family, you need to rest well during the confinement period.
●Sexual activity is prohibited during confinement. Please wait 6-8 weeks until the wound has completely healed before starting sex.
I hope that every mother can spend the whole confinement period scientifically, easily and comfortably!
