1, postpartum conditioning methods for pregnant women

2. Sweating
It is normal for new mothers to sweat, because they need to discharge a lot of water accumulated in their bodies after childbirth. However, if you sweat too much, feel thirsty, or still sweat for more than a week, it means that qi deficiency cannot consolidate the exterior.
Conditioning method: wheat mutton soup
You can take Yupingfeng powder (pills) or floating wheat mutton tripe soup, that is, 50g of floating wheat is wrapped in gauze, 200g of mutton tripe is sliced, boiled together with water, and served with soup, which will have certain effects.

If the symptoms are not relieved after a few days, taking Chinese medicine for invigorating qi and diuresis under the guidance of Chinese medicine, or taking Buzhong Yiqi Pill, also has certain effect.
Step 4 be dizzy
When a new mother gives birth, she has difficulty breathing and loses too much blood, and she will feel dizzy, sometimes accompanied by symptoms such as loss of appetite, nausea, chills and headache.

5, constipation and hemorrhoids
Lying in bed for a long time after delivery is easy to constipation and cause hemorrhoids. Coupled with the pain of perineal wound during childbirth, many mothers have fear at the thought of defecation, which also promotes constipation to form a vicious circle.
Conditioning method: Chinese patent medicine+medicated diet
You can take Chinese patent medicines for moistening intestines, such as Maren Runchang Pills, or you can choose medicated diet, such as mashing 5 walnuts; Peel 20g peach kernel and mash it; 20 grams of black sesame seeds are fried and ground; 50ml of honey (you can find more than two kinds, and it is better to mix them together), add a proper amount of japonica rice to cook porridge, and drink it in the morning and evening.
6, breast pain
Many new mothers will suffer from acute mastitis. It is characterized by breast pain, milk caking, poor milk ejection, fever and fear of cold. If not treated in time, it will continue to develop into a breast abscess, and finally pus will flow out of the abscess.

The method is to decoct 60g dandelion and 30g honeysuckle, and then boil japonica rice 100- 150g into porridge, which can be drunk at any time.
After normal delivery, women can wash their hair, take a bath (starting 3-7 days after delivery) and brush their teeth (please pay attention to gargling with warm water); Wipe your body every two or three days in winter, take a bath in summer, not a bath, and dry your hair and body after bathing in winter and summer to avoid catching cold. In addition to taking a bath, Qin Ying washes the vulva; Washing your hair and feet with warm water will not cause postpartum diseases; Nails should be cut frequently to avoid damaging the baby's delicate skin.
2. Common misunderstandings of postpartum health care
1, do not brush your teeth
Within one month after delivery, the maternal body function has not recovered in all aspects, and it is not allowed to stick to cold and sticky things, otherwise it will easily fall into the root cause. However, if the oral cavity is not cleaned effectively during the second month, it will easily lead to problems such as gingivitis and periodontal disease during pregnancy. So be sure to brush your teeth to avoid contact with cold water, leaving you ill for the second month.
2, often drink tea water
Although drinking more soup can increase milk secretion, tannic acid contained in tea will affect the absorption of iron in the intestine and easily cause postpartum anemia. Moreover, tea contains caffeine, which not only makes it difficult for pregnant women to fall asleep after drinking tea, but also affects their physical recovery. Caffeine can also enter the baby's body through milk, leading to intestinal spasm or sudden crying for no reason.
3. Drink brown sugar water for a long time
Some pregnant women drink brown sugar water in the second month, thinking that they can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis and replenish blood, and promote postpartum lochia discharge. It is indeed a good tonic after delivery, but the longer you drink it, the better. Because lochia began to decrease gradually around 10 day after delivery, uterine contraction basically returned to normal. If you drink brown sugar water for too long, it will increase the blood volume of lochia, resulting in continuous blood loss and anemia. Usually, the time for drinking brown sugar water after delivery is 7- 10 days.
4, cooking must add wine.
The function of wine is to promote blood circulation. Adding cooking wine to the parturient can help discharge lochia. But if the lochia has been discharged, it is not appropriate to cook food with wine, especially in summer. Because alcohol may cause uterine contraction, lochia cannot be discharged.
5. Eat a lot of eggs every day
Although eggs are rich in high-quality protein and have high nutritional value, they are very suitable for pregnant women, but the more you eat, the better. Eating too many eggs can't be fully absorbed by the human body, but it will increase the burden on the stomach, affect the intake of other foods, and cause uneven nutrient intake, which is not only bad for the recovery of pregnant women, but also bad for milk secretion. Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to eat 3-4 eggs a day in the month.
6. Eat hens instead of cocks
The decrease of estrogen and progesterone levels after delivery is beneficial to the formation of milk. However, the ovaries and egg coats of hens contain a certain amount of estrogen, which will weaken the efficacy of prolactin and thus affect milk secretion. Cock testicles contain androgens, which can fight estrogen. If you stew the cock and testicles together, it will undoubtedly promote milk secretion. Moreover, the cock has less fat, so pregnant women are not easy to gain weight, which helps to keep a good figure during lactation and is not easy to cause infantile diarrhea.
3. Postpartum dietary guidance
1, light diet is praised by everyone: avoid adding all kinds of sauces when eating vegetables and fruits. Although lettuce salad and boiled vegetables are ideal foods for dieters, if you coat them with a thick layer of salad dressing and meat sauce, the weight loss plan will be ruined. Because oil, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce and other seasonings are all high-calorie things.
2. Vegetarian collocation is the most basic principle: the era of blindly listening to the opinions of predecessors and not eating vegetables has passed, and vegetarian collocation is the most basic and important principle. The combination of meat and vegetables and balanced nutrition can not only make your body get enough nutrition, but also avoid overnutrition.
3, drink more boiled water to promote detoxification: eight glasses of water a day helps the body balance electrolytes and promote metabolism. Drink plenty of water, which is necessary to strengthen detoxification. All biochemical reactions of human body must be dissolved in water, including the discharge of waste. Therefore, water intake must be increased after delivery.
4, vitamins can help human cells from harm: vegetables and fruits are a good source of many antioxidant nutrients, such as vitamin C, vitamin P and so on. Antioxidant nutrients are components that scavenge free radicals in the body and can reduce the damage to our cells.
5, eat more coarse grains to prevent constipation and colorectal cancer: In addition to rice, you can usually eat coarse grains such as brown rice and cereals as staple foods. Eating white rice can only consume calories and get no nutrition. Therefore, it is necessary to replace polished rice with coarse grains such as brown rice and whole wheat food. Not only can you eat more nutrition, but dietary fiber can also prevent constipation and colorectal cancer. This is good for people who want to lose weight.
6. Being too hungry and full is not only harmful to the stomach, but also detrimental to weight loss: if the calorie intake is excessively restricted, people will often be half hungry. However, if you choose nutritious food to eat eight points full, it will not only make people feel hungry, but also naturally reduce at least 500 calories every day.
7. Rinsing your mouth after a meal can reduce the chance of suffering from oral diseases: brushing your teeth immediately after a full meal can reduce the chance of suffering from oral diseases, and also make your breath fresh and difficult to eat. You can prepare a set of toothbrush supplies for travel in the office to keep your mouth clean at any time.
8. Chew more, chew slowly and help digestion: Chewing slowly is good for digestion, and it is also helpful for postpartum recovery. Smart slimming method should try to lengthen the meal time, generally a meal should take at least 20 minutes. More importantly, chew slowly, and eat at least 10-20 mouthfuls each time before swallowing, so that you can feel full early without increasing the burden on your stomach.
9. Say goodbye to snacks: Snacks are extremely high in calories. If you really want to lose weight, you must control yourself and never let snacks appear within your reach. Otherwise, you will unconsciously consume a lot of calories.
10. Don't eat and drink: When you feel hungry, you can selectively eat some fruits to relieve hunger. Because you will eat more when you are hungry than when you are normal.
