It was the same when I first gave birth to Bauer. I gave birth to a child in our people's hospital. When I was born, the doctor also told me to eat less brown sugar, otherwise there would be a lot of lochia.
So I follow the doctor's advice and don't eat brown sugar to avoid lochia. So, after three or four days, the lochia stopped, and I started eating brown sugar eggs, but after two days, the lochia came again.
When lochia came, I stopped brown sugar again, stopped brown sugar once, and lochia stopped again two days later. After repeating this for several rounds, I am exhausted.
In a rage, I stopped rejecting brown sugar and began to eat brown sugar eggs as before. Let him come when the lochia comes.
Finally, I ate brown sugar eggs for a few days, and lochia came for a few days. Finally, after 42 days of confinement, he stopped, and my menstruation finally returned to normal!
Therefore, according to my experience of giving birth to Dabao and Bauer in confinement, you can eat brown sugar eggs in confinement, and saying that you can't eat brown sugar and red dates is only a theoretical statement, and there is no factual basis.
The above is my practical experience, I hope I can help you!
Hello, doctors are not allowed to drink brown sugar water.
First of all, because modern medicine thinks that there are many impurities in brown sugar, the hygiene in the production process may not meet the standard, including germs and dust. However, the maternal resistance is poor and it is easy to be infected. Therefore, it is not recommended for pregnant women to drink brown sugar water.
Secondly, if it is a caesarean section, the caesarean section will move the stomach and the body will not be ventilated. If you drink brown sugar water at this time, your abdomen will swell without ventilation. And it is not conducive to wound recovery, which is easy to cause massive bleeding. Therefore, caesarean section wants to drink brown sugar, basically at the end of the month and after physical recovery.
Even if it is a natural birth, you should not drink more brown sugar water. Postpartum 10 day, lochia gradually decreased and uterine contraction gradually returned to normal. If you drink brown sugar water for a long time, the blood circulation function of brown sugar will make lochia bloody and lead to maternal bleeding. Therefore, the time for drinking brown sugar water after delivery is basically about 7 to 10 days.
Finally, drinking more brown sugar water not only damages teeth, but also accelerates maternal sweating, which is not conducive to the rapid recovery of maternal body.
Therefore, it is good for pregnant women to drink brown sugar water, but it must be moderate. Mothers who have given birth are very fragile. A little carelessness will lead to many problems.
I hope my answer can help you, thank you.
Question: My sister has just given birth to a baby, and the doctor who is confinement won't let me eat brown sugar and red dates. Why? Don't women eat these things when they give birth?
Because eating brown sugar and red dates before lochia is discharged will increase the amount of lochia, which is not good for women. Better wait until the lochia is clean.
After all, lochia mostly enriches blood, which means that you are bleeding while enriching blood, which not only prolongs the lochia time, but also prolongs the confinement time.
I'm Ma Ying, and I'm glad to answer this question. For women who have just given birth, it is really inappropriate to eat more brown sugar and red dates, but it is not impossible.
As a traditional nutritional product, brown sugar and red dates are rich in nutrients, fast in energy release, high in nutrient absorption and utilization rate, and have the function of warming. Both of them are rich in iron, which can really supplement iron quickly for mothers who have just lost too much blood after delivery.
1. What are the benefits of brown sugar and red dates for confinement women?
After giving birth to the baby, my mother was weak and consumed a lot of energy and physical strength. In addition, she will lose blood and breast-feed after giving birth. It is urgent to adjust your physical condition to meet another round of postpartum challenges.
Eating brown sugar in the next month has the effects of benefiting qi and enriching blood, diuresis and detoxification, invigorating spleen and warming stomach, dispelling cold, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
The so-called "impurities" in brown sugar contain a lot of trace elements such as iron, calcium, manganese and zinc, and substances such as riboflavin and carotene, which are the basic raw materials for synthesizing hemoglobin.
For new mothers, brown sugar can also promote uterine contraction, help to discharge blood stasis in postpartum uterine cavity, and promote the early recovery of uterus.
Jujube is rich in iron, which can promote the synthesis of hemoglobin and improve the hematopoietic function of the body. It is very suitable for people with anemia and weakness.
Flavonoids in jujube have the effect of calming the nerves, which is helpful to improve symptoms such as irritability, insomnia and dreaminess.
In addition, red dates can also promote liver detoxification.
Second, how to eat brown sugar and red dates?
For women who have just given birth, the dietary arrangement during the second month needs to follow the principle of "one row, two adjustments and three supplements".
"A row" means detoxification. In the first week, the new mother needs to cooperate with the diet to discharge excess water and lochia from the body. Such as biochemical soup, brown sugar water, jujube and egg soup are all suitable for this stage.
"Second tune" refers to conditioning. The second week is mainly to recuperate, restore pelvis, strengthen waist and kidney. You can eat sesame oil fried pork liver, black chicken soup and the like.
"Three supplements" refers to increasing nutrition. In the early stage, the body was weak and insufficient. At this time, this row of toxins has been discharged, and nutrients can be better absorbed by the body. Like sesame oil chicken, all kinds of soups with milk and nourishing are suitable for this stage.
Red dates and brown sugar are more suitable for the week before confinement, because you should drink less water (more water needs to be excreted) and eat less salt during confinement, so your family can prepare egg drop soup, brown sugar stewed eggs or drink brown sugar water alone for your mother.
Third, how to brew brown sugar correctly?
When drinking brown sugar, boil it before drinking it, or add it directly to the soup. Don't use boiled water, because brown sugar is easy to produce bacteria during storage and transportation, which may cause diseases.
The time for drinking brown sugar water after delivery is 7- 10 days, which cannot be used as a substitute for boiled water.
Especially when postpartum bloody lochia and serous lochia turn into white lochia, it is not advisable to drink brown sugar water again, so as not to prolong the time of lochia discharge.
Fourth, why not eat more brown sugar and red dates?
For new mothers, the more blood-enriching foods such as brown sugar and red dates, the better. Moderate drinking is good, but you can't drink a lot for a long time.
Excessive drinking of brown sugar will damage maternal teeth. If the mother does not brush her teeth, the tooth damage will be very serious.
2 brown sugar and red dates are warm, and postpartum mothers sweat more. Drinking too much brown sugar water in summer will definitely lead to sweating, which may make the body slightly dehydrated, make the mother weaker and even suffer from heatstroke.
Drinking too much brown sugar will increase the blood volume of lochia and cause anemia in new mothers.
A little reminder: besides brown sugar and red dates, there are also fermented grains. I have a friend who drank late the next month and still drank the next week. Results After confinement for one month, the lochia was still bloody and intermittent for several months. Finally, I went to the hospital to prescribe Chinese medicine for conditioning and slowly disappeared.
Therefore, ingredients such as brown sugar and red dates have the effects of nourishing blood, benefiting qi and helping recovery, but if they are warmed up, they will not be worth the loss, so novice mothers must be careful not to eat too much.
I hope my answer can help you.
Both of them promote blood circulation, especially in the first three days, so you can't eat anything that promotes blood circulation!
I remember the nurses in the hospital also said not to eat too much brown sugar, which is not conducive to the clean lochia. Eat less sweets. However, a month of light diet passed quickly.
Brown sugar and red dates have nourishing and promoting blood circulation. You lost so much blood when you gave birth. Are you still rushing to eat these nourishing and blood-activating things to lose more blood? Moreover, the body may not be able to bear it if it is insufficient.
You can eat slowly when you are born.
Don't eat during lochia, for fear of causing massive bleeding. It doesn't matter if the lochia is discharged.
