1, seize the prime time to lose weight
Two months after delivery is the golden period for the second-born mother to recover her figure, because her metabolism is still in a vigorous state at this time. Doing some moderate stretching exercise during this period can accelerate her metabolism and consume excess fat in the body.
2, scientific diet
After giving birth to the second child, the parturient should learn scientific dining skills and scientific slimming recipes in diet, so as to better help the body regain its balance and achieve the effect of slimming. It is suggested that the second-born mother should eat more fruits and vegetables rich in fiber, and also eat more meat rich in protein, such as fish and chicken.
3. Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is the best way to lose weight. Breastfeeding will consume too much nutrition and calories in the mother's body and prevent fat from accumulating in the body. If you breastfeed 850ml every day, you will consume 800 calories, which is equivalent to 90g body fat. Therefore, breastfeeding can consume a lot of fat and protein, and promote the recovery of body shape.
Step 4 lose weight exercise
A second-born mother can start a series of weight-loss exercises, such as family-style yoga, which can adjust her body and mind. At the same time, they can also walk, swim, jog and do all-round exercise in the gym for at least half an hour every day, which plays a key role in slimming down smoothly after delivery.
Step 5 do housework
Second-born mothers can do housework properly after delivery, which is particularly irritating to abdominal muscles. Burning fat is a good way to get back in shape. For example, mopping the floor, washing clothes, washing dishes and other housework can directly exercise the muscles of the corresponding parts, burn calories and burn fat, which is very effective for postpartum slimming.
6. Body-shaping clothes
The second-born mother will have lochia and more secretions within 1 month after delivery. If they wear tight-fitting underwear for a long time, it will affect their health and not be conducive to postpartum recovery. Therefore, it is recommended that mothers start to choose body-shaping underwear one month after delivery, which is very effective for shaping and slimming.
7. Matters needing attention in recovering the body
(1) Don't go on a diet blindly
After giving birth to a second child, mothers should not blindly go on a diet to lose weight, because the body has not fully recovered to the extent of pregnancy, and the task of breastfeeding is heavy. At this time, it is necessary to supplement nutrition in time. Forced dieting will not only lead to the slow recovery of new mothers, but also lead to various postpartum complications.
(2) Do not accept diet pills
It is not recommended that the second-born mother take diet pills during lactation, because most of the drugs will be discharged from the milk, which will directly damage the baby's health and is not conducive to the baby's growth and development.
(3) It is not advisable to do strenuous exercise immediately.
The second-born mother's strenuous exercise to lose weight immediately after delivery is likely to slow down the recovery of the uterus and cause bleeding, which will seriously lead to the re-injury of the surgical section or vulvar incision during delivery. Generally, the parturient can start to do postpartum slimming exercise in 4-6 weeks after delivery, and caesarean section needs a recovery period of 6-8 weeks or longer after delivery.
8. What should I pay attention to when preparing to have a second child?
1, folic acid supplement
The older a woman is, the greater the possibility of abnormal development of fetal nervous system. Most of the two children are elderly women who are prone to deformity. Oral folic acid helps to prevent the development of fetal nervous system and other problems. Therefore, elderly women should start taking folic acid orally in the first three months of pregnancy and continue taking folic acid orally in the first three months of pregnancy. Folic acid only needs to take 0.4 mg/tablet, and high dose is not advisable.
2, diet conditioning
Do not eat cold and irritating food during pregnancy, drink less coffee and tea, have a light diet, and eat more vegetables, fruits, milk and beans. Middle-aged women are often prone to deficiency of both qi and blood. If menstrual disorder, especially the ovulation function of some ovaries of middle-aged women declines, it is necessary to take some traditional Chinese medicines dialectically to regulate menstruation, and also go to the hospital to monitor ovulation according to B-ultrasound.
Step 3 adjust your living habits
Women who have a second child should "stay up late, quit smoking and drinking, and live a regular life". Whether men or women, staying up late will seriously affect the quality of sperm and eggs, which does not meet the requirements of prenatal and postnatal care. Smoking and drinking during pregnancy will increase the rate of fetal malformation and affect embryonic development. So be prepared to quit smoking and drinking.
Step 4 Exercise properly
Whether male or female, three to six months before pregnancy, we should strengthen exercise, improve physical fitness and prepare for the baby. Proper exercise for men is helpful to improve sperm quality and pregnancy rate. Women insist on exercise, on the one hand, can improve the quality of eggs, on the other hand, it can also enhance the flexibility and pregnancy tolerance of the body, and prepare for production and recovery. You can run, swim, play ball, climb mountains, do sports and so on.
5. Have a good physical examination.
Even if the first child has no bad birth history, the baby is healthy, so we should pay attention to the pre-pregnancy examination when preparing the second child. Through the pre-pregnancy examination, we can find out the physical abnormalities in time and treat them in time to provide a good living environment for the fetus. It is suggested that both husband and wife begin to do pre-pregnancy examination 3-6 months before pregnancy.
