In fact, Japanese people don't have confinement. Although most of them have learned the tradition of China, the medical technology is particularly advanced, so they gradually give up the tradition of confinement.

In fact, confinement is a term for postpartum rest in China. In scientific terms, it should be called "puerperal health care and postpartum recovery". Although Japanese people don't have confinement, "puerperal health care and postpartum recovery" is not uncommon, which is more scientific than traditional confinement in China.

How is confinement done in Japan?

1, Japanese women don't sit in their own homes or in-laws' homes. They will go back to their parents' home for confinement. They are both daughters and new mothers, which will give Japanese women a better rest space.

2. The moon meal of Japanese parturient is very nutritious. The staple food is rice and miso soup. Fish, meat and eggs are the vegetarian dishes, and fruits, milk, vegetables and other foods are balanced.

3. The Japanese control the maternal weight very strictly, and even learn to control their own weight from the third month of pregnancy. Japanese women are only allowed to gain weight 1kg from pregnancy to baby birth, and then subtract the weight of amniotic fluid and baby. If they weigh more than expected during pregnancy, they will be ordered by doctors to lose weight. So we can see that women basically don't need to lose weight after childbirth.

The climate in Japan is quite pleasant. Even in the cold winter, people don't feel very cold, so maternity doesn't need special care like in China. They turned on the air conditioner, pressed the uterus with ice packs, stimulated the contraction of the uterus, and even gave them ice cream.

Japanese women can do whatever they want after giving birth. If there is nothing wrong with their health, they will go out to work in about six weeks and rarely stay at home for three to six months like Chinese mothers.
