1. Weight: The increase of postpartum weight is mainly due to the increase of fetus, placenta, amniotic fluid, maternal blood and body fluids. Generally speaking, 6-8 weeks after delivery, the weight will gradually return to the pre-pregnancy level. If you gain weight too fast or too much, it may be caused by improper diet or lack of exercise, and you need to adjust your living habits.
2. Uterine contraction: The postpartum uterus needs to contract to return to the size before pregnancy. Usually around 6 weeks after delivery, the uterus can return to its normal size. If the uterine contraction is not good, it may lead to bleeding or infection, so you need to seek medical attention in time.
3. Breast: During breastfeeding, the breast will become more sensitive and congested. If there are symptoms such as lump, pain, redness and swelling in the breast, it may be a manifestation of mastitis and you need to seek medical attention in time.
4. Emotion: Postpartum depression is a common psychological problem, characterized by persistent depression, loss of interest or happiness, and change of appetite. If you have these symptoms, seek professional help in time.
5. Physical strength: It takes some time for postpartum physical strength to recover, especially for mothers who have experienced cesarean section. Proper exercise can help your body recover, but you should avoid overwork.
6. Defecation: After delivery, constipation may occur due to the influence of narcotic drugs and changes in pelvic pressure. Maintaining good eating habits and proper exercise will help to improve.
The above are some basic indicators and precautions, and the specific recovery situation needs to be judged according to the personal physical condition and the doctor's advice.
