From pregnancy to the birth of the baby, the mother's body will go through great changes, and these take time to recover, especially the postpartum recuperation is more important, how much do expectant mothers know?
3 days after giving birth is the golden period of physical recovery
Mothers should know that after giving birth to a baby, they have to go to confinement, which is what is called the puerperium in medicine, and during the confinement period, the mother needs to rest as much as possible, which is conducive to the recovery of the body.
The physical condition of each mother is different, and the time of confinement will be different, but most of them are 6~8 weeks, that is, 42~56 days, in these more than 40 days, the first 15 days are particularly important, and the first 3 days are even more important, and can even be called the "golden period of physical recovery".
After giving birth to a baby, if you want to recover your body to a good state, you need to go through physical recovery, body organ recovery, body hormone recovery, etc., of which physical recovery is fundamental, only as soon as possible to recover physical strength, and then some things will be carried out one after another.
So if you want to recover your strength as soon as possible, there are 4 things we must do seriously in the first three days after giving birth!
4 things you need to do seriously in the 3 days after giving birth
(1) Pay attention to your diet
Postpartum diet is the most important part, especially when the mother is weak, at this stage, we must not only supplement the nutrition of the mother in time, but also ensure that the mother's body is balanced and sufficient in the recovery period. It is also necessary to ensure that the mother is easy to digest after eating, and there is no burden on the stomach.
Although each mother's delivery method is different and the coping methods are different, they should generally focus on light, easy-to-digest, less salt, less oil, and eat small and frequent meals.
For example, on the first day, the mother can eat some vegetable soup, millet porridge, soft and rotten noodles; on the second day, she can change to noodles, soft rice, meat porridge, etc.; on the third day, the stomach and intestines should recover well, and she can eat normally according to the body, but she cannot make up for it.
In addition, women who have had a caesarean section need to pay attention to the need to fast within 6 hours after surgery, and must not be greedy, and they need to be able to eat after 6 hours, and they can drink a little radish soup to help with gas.
(2) Observe the changes in the body and lochia
Many mothers think that after giving birth to a baby, they will be fine, and they can relax their vigilance, but in fact, the body still needs to be observed after delivery, especially the need to pay attention to the discharge of lochia.
In the first three days after giving birth, the mother will discharge the color of lochia, and then the color of the lochia will gradually become lighter, and the amount of lochia will gradually decrease, and the lochia will be basically discharged after 4~6 weeks.
During this period, especially in the 3 days after giving birth, we must pay more attention to the situation of lochia, how much bleeding is, what is the color, and if there is an abnormality, we must communicate with the doctor and nurse in time.
(3) Appropriate activities and doing what we can
In traditional confinement, the woman needs to stay in bed and not get out of bed and walk around, but in fact this is not conducive to recovery. Walking around properly after giving birth is not only conducive to lochia and urination, but also helps the body recover as soon as possible, but it is necessary to do what you can.
In addition, women need to pay attention to the activity time, natural delivery of women can get out of bed within 6~12 hours, but if it is a caesarean section, it is recommended that you can get out of bed after 24 hours, and you need to be accompanied.
(4) Gas, urination, and defecation as soon as possible
If there is difficulty in urination, the mother can get out of bed and walk around, if it is accompanied by other uncomfortable conditions, it is recommended to inform the doctor or nurse as soon as possible to avoid affecting the recovery of the uterus.
In order to promote gas and avoid postoperative fullness, the mother can drink some soup that helps to pass gas after fasting for 6 hours, the common one is radish soup.
In addition, defecation is also very important, most women will have bowel movements in 2~3 days after giving birth, if there is no bowel movement for many days, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
