Giving birth to a child is indeed the beginning of a new stage in our female life. Many female friends will find that their bodies are really fatter than before after giving birth, so they begin to enter the ranks of dieters. But why is it so difficult to lose weight after giving birth?

Why is it so difficult to lose weight after childbirth?

If you want to know why you can't lose weight smoothly, you must know why you are fat. It's because what you eat produces heat. If you can't consume it through exercise or other means, it is easy to convert heat into fat and pile it up, leading to obesity. If you consume a lot of fat, you can lose weight. Therefore, it is not easy for women to lose weight, because calories cannot be consumed in time, leading to weight gain.

Therefore, if you want to lose weight, you must take practical actions, such as reducing calorie intake. In addition to ensuring nutrient intake, we should also control calorie intake and increase calorie consumption, so as to lose weight at the same time.

Some friends may wonder, how can it be said that it is the easiest time to lose weight when you are so fat after giving birth? In fact, this statement is well-founded. Almost all women are fatter after giving birth. It is because of this big gap that they can arouse their determination to lose weight. On the other hand, most young mothers choose to take care of their children after giving birth. This process is happy, but it is also hard. As long as they maintain a certain amount of exercise and a happy mood, there is still a great possibility of losing weight quickly.

How much blood is left after delivery is normal.

Generally, lochia will be discharged 4-6 weeks after delivery, and the total amount is between 500- 1000ML. At this time, lochia smells of blood but has no peculiar smell. Due to the different physical conditions of each parturient, the discharge of lochia also changes in stages. At this time, you must not treat lochia as menstruation, but know how to distinguish it. If the color changes from red to light red and then to white, then this is lochia, otherwise it may be menstruation. If postpartum lochia is unclean for a long time, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

Because during pregnancy, the blood volume in the body increases by nearly 50%, bleeding is normal. After the placenta is separated from the uterus, the blood vessels in the corresponding parts will be opened and blood will flow into the uterus. When the placenta separates, the uterus will continue to contract, thus closing blood vessels and greatly reducing blood outflow. The nurse may massage your uterus and give you oxytocin to promote uterine contraction. Breast milk can promote the body to secrete natural oxytocin and help the uterus contract. Sometimes after giving birth to a child, the uterus will contract abnormally, leading to excessive bleeding, which is called postpartum hemorrhage.
