women who were pregnant in October and gave birth to their baby at last. But giving birth to a child is not the end, and then it enters the " confinement " stage.
"Confinement" is very important for women. In this stage, postpartum women use diet and rest to make up for the loss caused by birth and restore the body to its best condition.
Why do you have to "confinement" after giving birth?
"Confinement" is the "tradition" of women since ancient times. From a health point of view, confinement can quickly restore reproductive organs and bodily functions. From a sociological point of view, confinement is a help The parturient passed the critical period of postpartum physical and psychological difficulties smoothly.
For women who have experienced childbirth, due to bleeding during childbirth, combined with exertion and sweating, the body is emptied of qi and blood. At the same time, the volume of the uterus increases during pregnancy, which makes other surrounding organs squeezed, which all require confinement. It can be gradually restored.
Therefore, "confinement" seems to be a "bad habit" of traditional customs, but in fact it has a lot of benefits. Oriental women can not " do not know blessing in the blessing" .
postpartum such a sleeping posture is not advisable
even after giving birth to the baby, mother does everything as she wants, just like sleeping, not just how you want to sleep.
After delivery, the uterus needs to shrink continuously to eliminate a lot of lochia. Therefore, it is recommended to sleep on the side when sleeping at night during the confinement period. The
side-lying sleeping position has minimal pressure on the pelvis, which can largely prevent pelvic cracking and promote postpartum uterine recovery.
If women often sleep on their backs during confinement, it will affect the contraction of the uterus and even cause postpartum sequelae. The most obvious is "backache and backache."
There are other women who like to sleep with their bodies curled up. This method is also undesirable. Z4z shrinks the body, which also hinders pregnant mothers to discharge lochia. In , such incorrect sleeping positions are not conducive to mothers. The body recovers.
can't sleep casually during postpartum confinement
1) Sleep with newborn baby
After childbirth, many mothers choose to sleep in a bed with their baby for the convenience of taking care of the baby. This seems very convenient for breastfeeding and diaper changing, but in fact, this sleeping position is not good for mothers and children.
On the one hand, postpartum mothers need a good rest, and at the same time, in order to avoid harm to the child, should not be too relaxed when sleeping, and will deliberately maintain a sleeping posture. Sleep like will naturally not be good, and wake up in the morning. Sometimes the body will be tired, which is not conducive to the recovery of the body after childbirth.
On the other hand, mother and newborn baby are sleeping in the same bed, mother will bring in a lot of cold air when turning over, which will easily cause physical discomfort for the newborn baby.
So after giving birth, even if you sleep on the same bed with your baby, do not use the same "quilt", which is not good for the recovery of the newborn baby and the mother.
2) Sleeping in separate rooms with husband
After giving birth, sleeping in separate rooms with husband is a phenomenon that occurs in most families.
In the confinement period, the husband will be "ejected out of the bedroom" in all likelihood, and research has shown that 80% of postpartum women will have varying degrees of depression, and 70% of them are depressed from sleeping with their husband Started.
Women who sleep in separate rooms often take into account that their husbands work hard for half a day, and the husband can’t help much in taking care of the baby. Sleeping together, the husband’s snoring will only interrupt the baby’s rest.
’s seemingly well-intentioned behavior actually has many drawbacks. After sleeping in separate rooms for a long time, the husband of cannot appreciate the hardship of taking care of the baby, and the mother will complain about her husband's inadequacy. Naturally, the relationship between husband and wife will be separated.
and the postpartum women are weak and cannot be overworked, so taking care of the baby is a coupleFor personal matters, mothers don’t want to fight all by themselves.
Also pay attention to exercise and personal hygiene during confinement
