Traditionally, one month after delivery is called "confinement", but in fact, after one month of adjustment, many organs of the body have not fully recovered. For example, it takes 6 weeks for the uterine body to retract to the size of the non-pregnant uterus, and it takes 6 weeks for the endometrium at the placenta attachment to be completely regenerated and repaired; The recovery of postpartum abdominal wall tension also takes 6 weeks to 8 weeks. If women do heavy work during this period, they are prone to diseases such as uterine prolapse. Therefore, confinement is not just 30 days! Please remember to pay attention to various problems in these eight aspects.
First, maternal personal hygiene.
Traditionally, it is believed that you can't take a bath or wash your hair during the puerperium, for fear of catching cold and leaving the root of the disease. In fact, this understanding is unreasonable.
1. Generally, you can take a shower and wash your hair one week after delivery.
However, you must hold on to the bath, and don't take a bath, so as to avoid infection by pouring dirty water into the reproductive tract. You can take a shower in six weeks.
This room is often ventilated.
The indoor temperature should not be too high, nor should it be high and low. It used to be said that doors and windows should be closed tightly, and pregnant women should always cover up with thick quilts. This is very dangerous, especially in summer, and it is easy to cause heatstroke in pregnant women. But pay attention to the following points:
① Avoid the wind that the body blows directly to the electric fan during confinement.
② When turning on the air conditioner, don't point the air outlet at the parturient. It is most appropriate to set the room temperature at around 25 ~ 28 degrees Celsius.
3 If the clothes are wet due to excessive sweating during confinement, you must put on dry clothes immediately; Prepare a nightgown at the bedside in winter, and put it on immediately after getting up in the middle of the night to nurse, so as not to catch cold.
Step 3 rinse your mouth and brush your teeth
During the confinement period, pregnant women eat more often and eat more. If they don't pay attention to gargling and brushing their teeth, it is easy for bacteria in the mouth to multiply and cause oral diseases. In the past, many women blindly believed in the "old rule"-they couldn't brush their teeth during confinement, and as a result, they ruined their teeth after confinement once. Maternal women should brush their teeth once or twice a day, and they can choose a soft toothbrush to brush gently. Rinse your mouth with warm water after each meal. As long as physical strength permits, start brushing your teeth the next day after delivery, preferably no more than 3 days. Need to pay attention to the following points:
① Pay attention to calcium nutrition during pregnancy, maintain oral hygiene and avoid damaging teeth.
② The puerpera's constitution is weak, and they have adaptability and sensitivity to cold stimulation. So remember to brush your teeth with warm water, and it is best to soak your toothbrush in warm water before brushing your teeth to prevent cold stimulation from stimulating your teeth and gums too much.
③ Brush once every morning and evening before going to bed. If you have the habit of eating supper, brush it again after eating supper.
④ Finger washing can be used 3 days after delivery, that is, the index finger is washed or wrapped with gauze, the toothpaste is squeezed on the finger as a brush head, rubbed back and forth on the teeth, and then the gum is pressed several times with the finger. This method can promote blood circulation and dredge collaterals, strengthen teeth and avoid loosening teeth.
4. Wash vulva with warm water every day.
There are many perineal secretions in "Yuezi", and the perineum should be cleaned with warm water every day. Change the perineum pad frequently to keep the perineum clean and dry. The lochia will be clean about 4 ~ 6 weeks after delivery.
As for cutting nails and toenails, you can do it as usual.
Nails are keratinized epithelium, and there is no problem of "scissors wind" at all.
6. Wash nipples with warm water before breastfeeding.
Do not use soap, alcohol, detergent, etc. Avoid removing the natural membrane that protects the nipple and areola skin, causing chapped nipple and affecting breastfeeding.
Second, the precautions for just giving birth to BB
1. Don't eat the whole egg for several hours after delivery.
Although China has always had the habit of eating eggs and raw milk, medical research shows that it is best for women not to eat whole eggs for a few hours after delivery. Because in the process of delivery, maternal physical exertion is greater, sweating is more, body fluids are insufficient, and digestive ability will also decline. If you eat eggs immediately after delivery, it will be difficult to digest and increase the burden on the stomach. So eat semi-liquid or liquid food within a few hours after delivery.
2. Drink vegetable soup after delivery.
Many mothers drink whole soup to promote emulsion immediately after delivery, which leads to blockage of mammary duct and aggravation of breast pain, which is not conducive to lactation. Postpartum tonic should be based on physical condition. Most mothers are not short of nutrition. It's best to drink some light vegetable soup first, and then drink the whole soup five days later.
Recommended:
Original vegetable soup. All kinds of vegetables, mainly roots, flowers and fruits, are cooked in soup without any seasoning, and can be drunk as tea. Drink it on the second day after delivery (the second day after caesarean section), and the milk delivery effect is excellent.
Ingredients: bean sprouts, broccoli, green pepper (green pepper, yellow pepper and red pepper are all acceptable), purple cabbage, loofah, edamame and zucchini, you can choose more than four kinds at a time.
Production: put all kinds of vegetables into the pot, add appropriate amount of water, boil and take soup to drink.
note:
Drinking pig's trotter soup, crucian carp soup and chicken soup at the same time with original vegetable soup will affect the milk-making effect. In addition, in the first few days after delivery, almost all women have constipation. This is due to the relaxation of intestinal and abdominal muscles. Therefore, women who give birth naturally can add more fluids and eat some fruits and vegetables from the day of delivery to improve.
Misunderstanding:
Traditionally, pregnant women can't eat green vegetables in confinement, otherwise BB will have diarrhea.
Explanation:
The problem of diarrhea that old people are worried about often refers to the baby's green stool. Babies occasionally have dark green feces, because food residues are digested by bile, which is yellow and makes the feces acidic. When discharging, it comes into contact with air and occasionally turns green. Generally, breast-fed stools tend to be acidic and may turn into green stools. In addition, some children who eat formula milk have dark green feces. The reason is that a certain amount of iron is added to the formula. Iron appears dark green when it comes into contact with air through the digestive tract. And:
(1) Infants who are not full may also have green loose stools, which belong to hunger diarrhea.
(2) If the mother eats too much oil, the baby will also have indigestion and pull the green stool. So mother's diet should be balanced.
Breast-fed babies, feces are generally yellow or golden yellow, uniform consistency like ointment, or particles, occasionally thin and slightly green, acidic, sour but not smelly. As long as BB's feces meet the above requirements and there are no other abnormalities, don't worry too much. So BB's green stool is not caused by her mother eating green vegetables, but by indigestion.
You can drink light fish porridge within three days after delivery.
It is best for the parturient to eat liquid or semi-liquid food within three days after delivery. The advice of ancient doctors is eat small fish porridge, which can be added with a plate of fresh and delicious cooking to relieve constipation; In addition, millet porridge, rice porridge, egg soup and dried noodles are also good choices.
After two or three days, my appetite gradually increased and I began to take other tonics. But don't eat anything too greasy when you have a bad appetite. According to your physical condition, you can drink hot milk in the morning and evening, eat 1-2 eggs a day, plus chicken, fish, shrimp, meat and so on. Slowly. Vegetables and meat should be distributed in a balanced way. Supplementing iron, calcium, protein and other nutrients and fibers in a balanced way can not only restore your physical strength, but also contribute to the secretion of milk. Attention! Don't eat flatulence food such as milk, soybean milk and a lot of sucrose within one week after delivery.
4. When can I take the initiative?
You can sit in bed for a while 8 hours after delivery. If the delivery is successful, you can go to bed and toilet 12 hours after delivery. You can move freely 24 hours after delivery, but you should avoid standing, squatting or doing heavy work for a long time to prevent uterine prolapse.
5. Remember to suck the nipple for BB as soon as possible.
Let the baby suck the nipple within half an hour after delivery, so as to establish lactation and milk ejection reflex as soon as possible and promote milk secretion. It is also beneficial to uterine contraction. The first breastfeeding time is 5- 10 minutes. You can breastfeed every 1 ~ 3 hours on the first day after delivery, and the time and times of breastfeeding can be controlled freely.
On the first day after delivery, if the parturient is weak and the wound is painful, she can choose the lateral position to study nursing. Most women haven't given milk in the first two days after delivery, so don't worry about whether there is milk at this time. Every mother has enough milk as long as she is healthy. Even if the milk can't come down, mother should insist on letting BB suck more, because sucking is good for milk secretion.
6, maternal urination 4-6 hours.
Women who give birth naturally can urinate 4 hours after delivery. A few parturients have dysuria and urinary retention, which may be related to long-term bladder compression and perineal pain reflex. Mothers should be encouraged to get up and urinate as much as possible. If there are any difficulties, they can also find a doctor to find a way. If they still can't urinate, they should have a catheterization.
7. Always pay attention to your own situation.
If you feel discomfort or pain from perineum or anus falling to the ground within 24 hours after delivery, you should seek medical advice in time to prevent infection and hematoma. Lochiorrhea will give off fresh blood smell, but if it smells bad, you should inform the doctor immediately, because it means you may be infected. In addition, it is best to use sanitary napkins or maternity sanitary napkins during lochia discharge.
8. Don't visit mothers and babies too early.
Because the parturient needs rest to recover her physical strength, it is best for relatives and friends not to visit at this time. If you come to visit, the time should not exceed half an hour, and you should give the mother as much rest time as possible. Relatives and friends with chronic diseases or colds had better not visit parturients and newborns to avoid cross-infection.
Third, the first and second weeks after delivery should not be supplemented.
1 and 1 and the main goal of 2 weeks after delivery is diuresis and detumescence.
1 and the main goal of 2 weeks after delivery is "diuresis and detumescence" to let lochia be discharged, and it is absolutely impossible to make up for it. The correct concept of tonic is: expel lochia first, and then replenish qi and blood. The more lochia there is, the less it can be supplemented. The first two weeks were not suitable for tonic because the lochia was unclean. Diet should focus on promoting metabolism and discharging excess water from the body.
1 week, you can eat sesame oil pig liver or pig liver (suitable for morning and noon), yam ribs soup and jujube tremella soup to help the uterus discharge waste such as lochia; You can drink a little light soup such as egg soup and fish soup; You can also eat some light meat, such as sliced meat and minced meat. Lean beef, chicken, fish, etc. Fried with fresh vegetables, the taste is refreshing and balanced. Proper amount of oranges, pomelos, kiwis and other fruits also have appetizing effects. At this stage, the emphasis is on appetizing rather than nourishing. If you have a good appetite, it will be delicious and absorbed.
In the second week, use sesame oil pork loin, peanut stewed pig's feet and fish soup to promote blood circulation to prevent backache. In addition, add 2000-2500 ml of water every day. By the third and fourth week, the lochia is clean and enters the tonic period. When cooking, add rice wine properly to promote blood circulation and help restore physical strength.
2. Two points that must be paid attention to when discharging lochia.
It is best to drink less oily soup. The more oil in the soup, the more fat in the milk. The digestive function of newborns is not complete. Too much fat in milk may give your baby diarrhea.
② Generally, drinking brown sugar should not exceed 10 days: Because brown sugar contains much more glucose than white sugar, drinking brown sugar will make the maternal body warm. Brown sugar has high iron content and can enrich blood for pregnant women. Brown sugar contains a variety of trace elements and minerals, which can induce diuresis, prevent postpartum urinary incontinence and promote lochia discharge. Brown sugar also has the function of promoting lactation and relieving pain.
But don't eat too much. Generally, drinking for less than 65,438+00 days will increase bloody lochia, and in summer, women sweat more and have less salt in their bodies. If the parturient drinks too much brown sugar water in summer, it will definitely accelerate sweating, make the body weaker and even suffer from heatstroke.
Fourth, a reasonable diet after delivery.
1, tonic does not mean eating and drinking big fish and meat.
Proper conditioning and a reasonable diet are very important. Scientific data show that you should eat less and eat more meals after delivery, and the menu should consider balanced nutrition and try not to be picky about food. The staple food is more than the third trimester, and protein and vegetables should be eaten more. The diet should be balanced and not too greasy, otherwise the child will get fatty diarrhea and the stool will be foamy.
2. Pay attention not only to the first month after delivery.
"confinement" often only pays attention to the nutrition of the first month. After confinement, the mother's nutrition is neglected from the second month, which leads to a significant decline in the quality of breast milk, which is not conducive to the baby's growth. Therefore, during the whole lactation period, we should pay attention to a scientific and reasonable diet, continuously and evenly ingest various nutrients, and provide the baby with nutritious breast milk.
When pregnant women eat fruits and vegetables, they should pay attention to:
① Maternal gastrointestinal function is weak, so it should be eaten in small quantities.
② Maternal gastrointestinal tract is very sensitive to cold stimulation, so don't eat cold vegetables and fruits. If it is too cold, it will easily lead to gastrointestinal congestion and affect digestive function.
③ The puerpera's gastrointestinal resistance is weak, so we must pay attention to whether the food is clean and hygienic.
Eat less salt and spices: Generally speaking, the weight gain during pregnancy is about 12kg, and the weight of the baby and placenta is about 5.5kg, with 6.5kg, of which water accounts for more than 60%. In other words, the water produced by various factors of pregnancy must be discharged slowly after the mother gives birth. Therefore, if you eat foods that are too salty or contain seasonings such as soy sauce, vinegar and ketchup, or eat pickled foods and canned foods, it will make the water in your body stay and it is difficult to discharge. Therefore, eating less salt and seasoning a week after delivery can achieve the purpose of "promoting diuresis and reducing swelling". On the other hand, women tend to sweat a lot during this period, and salt is still needed to supplement electrolytes. In addition, the maternal appetite is already very bad, and it is impossible to use salt. Therefore, salt can still be used during confinement, but it must be less than usual.
Functions and nutrition of various foods:
Soybean sprouts: Soybean sprouts contain a lot of protein, vitamin C, cellulose and so on. Protein is the main raw material for the growth of tissue cells, which can repair the damaged tissues during childbirth. Vitamin C can increase the elasticity and toughness of the blood vessel wall, prevent bleeding, and cellulose can moisten the bowels to relieve constipation and prevent puerpera from constipation. Cooking methods are mostly stewing and less frying.
Kelp: prevent anemia. Kelp contains more iodine and iron. Iodine is the main raw material for making thyroxine, and iron is the main raw material for making blood cells. Mothers can increase the content of milk by eating more of this vegetable. Newborns eat this kind of milk, which is beneficial to the growth and development of the body and prevents dementia caused by it. Iron is the main raw material for making red blood cells, which can prevent anemia.
Sesame: Sesame is rich in protein, fat, calcium, iron, vitamin E and other nutrients, which is very needed by new moms after delivery, and can improve the nutritional quality of diet. Intimate reminder: It is best to choose black food-black sesame, which has higher nutritional value than white sesame.
Carrot: rich in vitamins A, B and C, it is one of the best dishes for lying-in women.
Black beans are rich in protein and vitamins A, B and C, and can also improve beriberi edema and abdominal and systemic muscle relaxation.
Protein's sources: beef, fish, shrimp, eggs, animal offal, bean products, etc.
Sources of calcium: milk, eggs, shellfish, bean products, bone soup.
Sources of iron: liver, heart, egg yolk, beef, carp, shrimp, vegetables, mushrooms, auricularia, etc.
Sources of vitamins: brown rice, millet, corn, black rice, beans, vegetables and fruits.
Edible foods include: black rice, purple rice, soft-shelled turtle, pork, mutton, beef, pig liver, sheep liver, pig blood, silky fowl, pomfret, yellow croaker, octopus, eel, squid, sea cucumber, hairtail, black fungus, day lily, spinach, Chinese cabbage, amaranth, rape and bell pepper.
Chicken soup and pettitoes soup should be moderate: many people think that there is more bleeding during childbirth, so they should eat more nourishing soup such as chicken soup and pettitoes soup. As we all know, if you eat it every day and every meal, it will cause symptoms such as bloating and diarrhea. The diet in the first week after delivery should be light, such as egg soup and fish soup. Fish soup is rich in nutrition, but the oil on the upper layer should be removed first, and the soup should not be too salty. 5-7 days after delivery should be based on rice porridge, soft rice, broken noodles and so on. Don't eat too much greasy food.
Ginseng soup, don't drink too much: from the perspective of Chinese medicine, the trauma and bleeding during childbirth, coupled with labor strain during labor, will make the puerpera in a state of "more deficiency and more blood stasis". But generally do not need deliberate treatment. Even if it is treated, it is necessary to take the prescription of tonifying deficiency and removing blood stasis according to its characteristics. Ginseng has the strongest effect of invigorating qi in traditional Chinese medicine, and it can only be considered when the symptoms of qi deficiency are serious. Excessive drinking may cause chest tightness, difficulty sleeping and other symptoms.
You don't have to drink broth for a month: generally speaking, it is enough for a pregnant woman to eat 2 ~ 3 eggs a day with appropriate lean meat, fish, vegetables and fruits. You don't need to drink a lot of broth if you have enough milk, but you can drink some broth if you don't have enough milk, but you don't have to drink it for a month. Eating too much fat will not only lead to poor recovery, but also lead to diarrhea in children. This is because milk also contains a lot of fat particles, which are difficult for babies to absorb after eating.
Five, confinement of food taboos
It is best to avoid eating cold fruits and vegetables;
Especially for parturients within 7 ~ 10 days after delivery, such as white gourd, coconut water, carambola juice, watermelon (but a small amount can be eaten in summer), pear (pear), hawthorn, lemon, Chinese cabbage, orange, orange, persimmon, strawberry, mango, pickled cucumber, cantaloupe, bamboo shoots, white radish, eggplant and leek.
At the same time, during the confinement in summer, you can eat some diets suitable for relieving summer heat. When pregnant women are sweaty and thirsty, they can eat tomatoes, or eat appropriate amount of watermelons and fruits to relieve summer heat and avoid postpartum heatstroke. Importance of fruits and vegetables: Puerpera's postpartum metabolism is vigorous, and the amount of sweating and urine is increased. If fruits and vegetables are not supplemented in time, it is easy to cause constipation. Especially in hot summer, pregnant women should eat some fruits and vegetables properly to prevent heatstroke.
The following types of food should be avoided:
1. Stimulating drinks, such as strong tea and coffee, will affect sleep and gastrointestinal function, which is also bad for newborns;
Sour food, such as ebony, hawthorn, lemon, orange, orange, etc. , so as not to block blood circulation and is not conducive to lochia discharge;
3 salty food, too much salt will lead to edema;
(4) Malt milk extract, which is produced by malt and contains maltose and maltitol, has a good milk returning effect and will affect the milk secretion;
⑤ Do not eat Alpinia katsumadai, lotus leaf, mint, chrysanthemum, raw radish, etc.
The following Chinese medicines should not be taken one to two weeks after delivery:
① Tonifying traditional Chinese medicines: Ginseng, Codonopsis pilosula, Astragalus membranaceus, etc.
Just after production, it is not appropriate to take traditional Chinese medicine with too much tonic effect, such as ginseng. Ginseng contains many effective components, such as "ginsenoside" acting on the central nervous system and cardiovascular system, "Ginseng Ning" lowering blood sugar, and glycoconjugates acting on endocrine system. These ingredients can stimulate human body. If the new mother takes ginseng, the exciting effect of ginseng on the central nervous system of human body will lead to insomnia, irritability, anxiety and other adverse reactions of users. The new mother who just gave birth to a baby is very physically exhausted and needs bed rest very much. If she takes ginseng at this time, she will have difficulty sleeping because of excitement, which will affect her energy recovery. Therefore, it is harmful for the new mother to rush to supplement her body with ginseng.
② Chinese herbs for promoting blood circulation: safflower, salvia miltiorrhiza, Achyranthes bidentata, frankincense, myrrh, etc.
In the process of delivery, the blood vessels of internal and external genitals are often damaged. Taking drugs with strong blood circulation effect may affect the self-healing of damaged blood vessels, leading to bleeding and even massive bleeding. At the same time, drugs that are too beneficial, such as ginseng, are easy to promote blood circulation and accelerate blood flow, which is not conducive to the physical recovery of new mothers. Therefore, it is best not to use drugs with strong blood circulation effect within 1 week after giving birth. You can use some soft drugs to promote blood circulation, which is beneficial to uterine contraction, blood stasis in postpartum uterine cavity and early recovery of uterus. Angelica sinensis and Leonurus japonicus are mild drugs for enriching blood and promoting blood circulation.
③ Warm Chinese medicines: Radix Aconiti Lateralis, Herba Cistanches, Cortex Cinnamomi (which can cause uterine congestion and show menstrual function), dried ginger, Pinellia ternata, etc.
Some warm drugs can replenish qi and nourish blood, strengthen the spleen and warm the stomach, and dispel cold, which is very suitable for new mothers to take. But overheated drugs will damage the health of new mothers. Because spicy and warm drugs help internal fire, the new mother gets angry and has symptoms such as aphtha, constipation or hemorrhoids. Moreover, the maternal fire can affect the baby through the milk, which will aggravate the baby's fire. At the same time, drugs with too high temperature are likely to increase the sweating of new mothers and consume their health.
④ Cold-cooling laxatives: rhubarb, bezoar, mirabilite, senna, etc.
Drugs that are too cold and diarrhea are not conducive to weak new mothers, so such Chinese medicines must be used with caution after delivery.
⑤ Nourishing Chinese medicine: Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, etc.
Too greasy drugs will affect the spleen and stomach function of new mothers, so in order to ensure the normal work of digestive system, new mothers should avoid greasy Chinese medicine.
Don't eat chocolate often during breastfeeding: Theobromine contained in chocolate will enter breast milk and enter the baby's body through breastfeeding, which will damage the baby's nervous system and heart, leading to indigestion, unstable sleep and crying. In addition, eating chocolate often will affect the appetite of pregnant women, resulting in insufficient supply of nutrients needed by the body. In this way, it will not only affect the physical recovery of pregnant women, but also affect the growth and development of the baby.
Sixth, postpartum exercise
After delivery, maternal endocrine changes, the elasticity and strength of muscles and tendons of the whole body decrease, and the tension of joint capsule and ligament near the joint weakens, which makes the joint loose. In this state, if the parturient engages in housework too early or holds the baby too much, it will increase the burden of joints, tendons and ligaments, which will easily cause strain and pain in wrist and finger joints.
Maternal women should avoid childbirth, but they can do a little exercise in moderation. Generally speaking, simple abdominal muscle contraction, sit-ups and other exercises can start from postpartum 14 days, but according to the situation, it is not appropriate to use too much force or too much intensity. If you like aerobic dance's mother, you have to wait six weeks to start over. In short, postpartum exercise should be persistent.
Don't do heavy work for a period of time after delivery, such as washing clothes, carrying water and lifting heavy objects. Otherwise you will suffer from uterine prolapse.
In addition, if lochia suddenly turns bright red at home, it means that the original part of the placenta has not healed normally, which may be caused by your excessive fatigue. You should inform your doctor of this phenomenon. The doctor may suggest taking a few days off to relax.
Seven, the secret of milk.
Self-confidence is the cornerstone of success;
Mother's confidence in her breastfeeding ability will be the basic guarantee for the success of breastfeeding. Women's breasts can produce enough milk regardless of their shape and size, thus bringing rich nutrition to the baby.
② Pay attention to the "food" effect:
Novice moms should keep the good habit of drinking milk every day (don't drink it immediately after giving birth, or their stomachs will swell up and start to feel better), and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. In short, eating "good" is not a tonic. Too much high fat in traditional pig's trotters, chicken soup and crucian carp soup will not only block the mammary duct, which is not conducive to breast milk secretion, but also make mommy fat. Therefore, eating correctly can not only make you have enough milk, but also restore vitality, balance nutrition and not get fat. This is the "eating goods" effect that novice mommy hopes to achieve.
(3) breast feeding on both sides:
If only one side is fed at a time, the breast will be less stimulated and there will be less natural lactation. Let the baby suck both breasts every time. Some babies have a small appetite, so it is enough to eat milk from one breast. At this point, it is advisable to use the breast pump to suck off the thin milk at the front, so that the baby can eat thicker and more nutritious milk.
④ Suck a lot:
The less the mother's milk, the more times the baby sucks; Because the baby sucks harder, you can massage the areola with the baby's mouth. The more you feed, the more milk you secrete.
(5) empty milk:
Mothers should contact the baby's skin more, and the child's sucking on the nipple is a good stimulus to breast milk secretion. Let the baby fully suck the breast after each breastfeeding, which is conducive to the reproduction of milk.
6. Keep a good mood:
The adequacy of breast milk is closely related to the psychological factors and emotions of new mothers. Therefore, under any circumstances, mothers should not be impatient, but should face everything in life with a peaceful and happy attitude.
⑦ Replenish water:
It's normal for lactating mothers to feel thirsty when nursing. Mothers should pay attention to replenish water when breastfeeding, or drink more soybean milk, almond powder tea (recommended by the International Breast Milk Association), fruit juice, original vegetable soup and so on. A proper amount of water is enough, so that the supply of milk will be full of nutrition.
(8) Have a good rest and don't be too tired;
I can't sleep well at night, because I have to get up and nurse several times at night. Insufficient sleep will certainly reduce the amount of milk. Breast-feeding mothers should pay attention to taking time off. During the day, they can ask their husbands or family members to take care of their babies and take a nap. You should also learn how to eat at night without affecting sleep. Try to get 10 hours of sleep every day, and take a lateral position when sleeping, which is conducive to uterine recovery. It is difficult to take care of children. If you need help, be sure to ask relatives and friends (mainly parents and in-laws).
Pet-name ruby massage hot compress stimulation:
Massage the breast can stimulate the breast to secrete milk. Mother dipped a clean towel in warm water and wiped it from the center of nipple to areola. Hot compress on both sides alternately, each side lasts 15 minutes, and the following massage methods can also be used:
A circular massage hand is placed above and below the breast to massage the whole breast in a circular direction;
Spiral massage one hand holds the breast, and the index finger and middle finger of the other hand massage in the spiral direction of the nipple;
Shiatsu massage: put your hands on both sides of the breast and squeeze from the breast to the nipple.
Avoid nipple injury: If a mother's nipple is injured, cracked, chapped or bleeding and causes inflammation, it will affect milk secretion. In order to avoid nipple injury, it is suggested that mothers adopt the correct feeding posture and control the unilateral sucking time, otherwise it is easy to get injured repeatedly.
Eight, other considerations
1. It is a normal physiological reaction to feel abdominal pain while feeding.
Breastfeeding can promote the recovery of the mother's uterus, and abdominal pain during breastfeeding is the performance of uterine contraction. Whenever the uterus contracts, the uterine muscles are temporarily ischemic, and the lower abdomen is tight and hard, accompanied by lochia. Therefore, abdominal pain is normal when feeding.
2. Stop breastfeeding in the right way
Under normal circumstances, you should wait for the baby's nipple to loosen before pulling it out. If the mother wants to stop breastfeeding for some reason, she should first put her finger in the baby's mouth to stop sucking, and then pull out the nipple.
3, low back pain and joint pain are prone to occur in the month.
After pregnancy and delivery, maternal endocrine changes, making bones, joints and ligaments slack and calcium deficiency, which is easy to cause low back pain and joint pain. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen proper exercise after delivery, pay attention to calcium supplementation, and don't overwork. Lumbago and leg pain can heal itself after a period of time.
4. The husband should understand the emotional anxiety of his wife after childbirth.
After giving birth, women often feel anxious and irritable, and even have excessive language and behavior towards their families, which can become postpartum depression in severe cases. About 50% or more pregnant women will have this state. For this reason, the husband and mother-in-law at home may think that women are really delicate and have a lot of things to do, so many people are not satisfied, so they are angry and don't understand, and family conflicts arise.
In fact, this abnormal behavior is the result of changes in body hormones, not the result of female characteristics. Therefore, we should understand and be considerate of the parturient, so as to maintain the normal and good mood of the parturient and maintain a pleasant atmosphere, which is also an important condition for creating a good family environment for children.
You really can't touch cold water on the moon.
The new mother's bones are very loose. If cold air or cold water invades the bones, it may lead to "moon disease". You really can't touch cold water in the month. Even in summer, you still have to turn on the water heater and wash things with warm water. In addition, open the refrigerator and let your family do it for you.
6. It is best not to accept visits from relatives and friends.
During confinement, it is best not to accept visits from relatives and friends at home: calling is an ideal way to accept love and congratulations. Because the new mother needs enough rest and receives too many guests, she is very tired. Telling guests about their birth experiences, receiving blessings and listening to others praise their babies will make new mothers very excited and cause sleep disorders.
People coming and going can easily bring germs, especially when infectious diseases break out, which will pose a great threat to the health of new mothers and newborn babies. If it is a visit that cannot be refused, the number of people should also be limited. At the end of a visit, only 1 ~ 2 people will be received. When guests visit, they should stagger the nap time of the new mother during the day. Ask guests to take off their coats when entering the door, wash their hands before holding the baby, and don't kiss the baby casually.
