The diet during confinement is an important source of rest for lying-in women, and confinement has become a good opportunity to rest. If you can supplement the symptoms in your diet, you can make your mothers recover soon. At the same time, with proper exercise, you can also restore your body to prenatal ~!
The dietary requirements at this stage of postpartum diet are rich in nutrition, easy to digest, balanced in nutrition and avoiding obesity. Step by step to adapt to gradual increase, not sudden increase.
Secondly, we should also pay attention to the diversification of food cooking. In order to ensure breastfeeding. Foods with soup should be supplemented, such as chicken soup, fish soup, sparerib soup, trotter soup, egg drop soup, bean curd soup, etc.
Add some heart or semi-liquid food between meals and at night. Chicken soup and pettitoes soup can be cooked, cooled first, then skimmed off a layer of solidified oil and heated for mom to drink.
Eat brown sugar after delivery. Be careful not to eat more brown sugar. Brown sugar is a kind of sugar containing more glucose and vitamins, which has the function of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and has a certain effect on postpartum uterine contraction, recovery, lochia discharge and milk secretion.
However, eating brown sugar after delivery should not be too much. Otherwise, it may cause abdominal distension, loss of appetite, body fat and other symptoms. It is recommended to supplement according to your own physical needs.
In addition, the drinking time of brown sugar water should not be too long, because the lochia gradually decreases and the uterine contraction gradually returns to normal on postpartum 10 day. If you drink it for a long time, it may increase the blood volume of lochia and prolong the recovery time of uterus.
Therefore, the time for drinking brown sugar water after delivery is generally controlled at 7~ 10 days after delivery.
Basic dietary rule 9 1. Confirm the calories needed for a day.
Postpartum mothers need different calories because of different breastfeeding situations. For example, people who breastfeed exclusively need about 2,500 calories a day, and those who breastfeed need 1800 calories a day.
Step 2 pay attention to food quality
For the intake of calories or other nutrients, the most important thing is the quality of food, not the "quantity" of food. If the quality is not good, it is useless to eat more.
3. Strictly control the intake of fat
During pregnancy, the mother stored 3 kilograms of fat to prepare for breastfeeding. So don't eat too much greasy food after delivery, such as sweets, instant noodles, etc., otherwise the milk will become sticky and the breasts will be easily blocked. You should use less oil when cooking.
Cooked vegetables are better than raw ones.
Vegetables are rich in vitamins, and the effect of frying or cooking will be better than that of raw food, especially to improve the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A and D.
Absorb more water
Absorbing more water can promote the secretion of breast milk. You can get water supply from soup or stew, and you can also eat a lot of nutrition and protein, which is really "killing two birds with one stone".
6. Be sure to have breakfast
Breakfast should not be neglected because of lack of sleep and loss of appetite, because breakfast during lactation is more important than usual and should be more abundant. Remember not to destroy the basic eating pattern of three meals a day.
7. Adequate calcium
The calcium in the mother's body is lost because of breastfeeding, so we should pay attention to the intake of calcium and vitamin D (dried radish, bird's nest, etc.). ) to increase calcium absorption.
8. Still avoid cigarettes, alcohol and coffee.
Tobacco, wine, coffee and drinks containing alcohol, pigments and preservatives, after pregnant mothers smoke, the content of carbon monoxide in the blood increases, which will be passed on to the baby through milk, which is extremely unfavorable to the child's development and growth.
Moreover, the calories of wine and coffee are also quite high, which inadvertently become the source of obesity.
9. Try to eat less snacks and instant noodles.
Sweets and instant noodles will turn into fat once they are eaten in the body. Moreover, eating too many snacks will destroy the whole diet balance, and we should pay more attention to the additives in instant noodles.
Clean the perineum after delivery. Scrub the perineum at least twice a day after delivery, and rinse after defecation 1 time.
Immerse the cotton ball in sterile water or physiological saline. If possible, wipe the vulva with 1/2000 bromogeramine solution or povidone iodine solution. Wipe the pubic mound and labia on both sides first, and then wipe the anus. Don't wipe forward from the anus. After scrubbing, put on a sterilized perineal pad.
Menstrual belts and underwear are also washed in Qin Ying and exposed to the sun for sterilization.
When lying down, you should lie opposite the wound. If the perineal wound is on the left side, lie on the right side to prevent lochia from flowing into the wound and increase the chance of infection.
Basic nursing care of postpartum daily life after perineal lateral incision
Lateral episiotomy wounds usually heal within 4-5 days. However, due to scar tissue or absorbable suture, local discomfort such as swelling, tingling and numbness may occur, so the recovery period of 1-2 weeks after operation may be the most difficult.
Nursing of perineal lateral incision, new mothers should pay attention to the following points:
1, clean the wound: insist on cleaning the wound with warm water at least twice a day, and wash it after defecation to avoid excreta polluting the wound. (Teach everyone a small coup: squatting and washing sometimes oppresses the wound. When cleaning, you can sit on the toilet and wash it with disposable cups. )
2, keep the wound dry: after going to the toilet and taking a shower, pat the perineum with a paper towel to keep the wound dry and clean.
3, do not use force: In order to avoid constipation, do not use force to solve the stool, so as to avoid the suture wound cracking again.
4. The tumor can be treated with physical therapy: if the laceration is serious and the wound is swollen and painful, iodophor can be added to the water for sitting bath, or baking lamp and magnesium sulfate can be used for wet and hot compress 24 hours after delivery to speed up recovery. (Iodophor can sterilize, warm water and baking lamp can promote blood circulation at high temperature and accelerate edema regression. )
In addition, if the initial wound has persistent pain and hematoma, fever, pain, induration, or purulent secretion during extrusion, it is necessary to find a doctor in time to see if there are problems such as bacterial infection.
Practice shows that under normal circumstances, after perineum incision, the vagina and perineum can heal within one week, and after a period of time, they can completely restore their normal anatomical position, and the vagina still maintains good elasticity, which has no influence on future sexual life.
