After giving birth to a baby, many mothers feel that in order to get back in shape, they can't wait to start exercising immediately. Generally speaking, postpartum is more common in places that need to lose weight and shape, such as sagging breasts and abdominal fat.
It is common to have a bigger belly and more fat. Sit-ups can really help tighten the fat on your stomach, but how long can you do sit-ups after childbirth? This is the problem of postpartum recovery and weight loss that postpartum mothers are more concerned about.
Because the exercise of sit-ups is relatively large, it is recommended to start after the full moon. However, mothers can also do some simple exercises in moderation after giving birth. Generally speaking, women who give birth naturally have a short recovery period and can start normal activities the next day after delivery; Moreover, the mother of cesarean section can do some turning and walking activities before taking out the stitches. After the stitches are removed, she can get out of bed and walk more.
The best time to lose weight after delivery
Two to four months after delivery and two months after delivery are more suitable for postpartum weight loss. Ma Bao can take some measures and plans to lose weight properly, especially for those who give birth naturally. If the body allows, Ma Bao can do some less exercise to lose weight, such as yoga, Tai Chi, jogging and so on. Insisting on these sports with less exercise can make their bodies lose weight obviously.
But for those mothers who have caesarean section, they need to pay more attention. It is still not suitable for exercise at this time of 2 to 4 months. In this case, you can massage the body, especially the abdomen, and you can eliminate abdominal fat. Generally, the best time to lose weight by caesarean section is half a year after delivery.
Which exercises are suitable for postpartum body shaping?
Postpartum exercise should follow the principle of transition from weak to strong and from slow to fast. You can start with light aerobic exercise such as brisk walking, swimming, elliptical machine and cycling.
The duration of each time should not be too long, and it can be gradually increased from 30 minutes. Then increase anaerobic exercise, and gradually increase the frequency of anaerobic exercise, ensuring 2~3 times a week.
Through the combination of anaerobic exercise and aerobic exercise, we can not only get rid of excess fat, but also increase muscle strength, from a helpless mother to a superman mother who can easily hold the baby with one hand.
There is no direct relationship between exercise during lactation and the increase or decrease of milk quantity. The most direct relationship between milk quantity is whether the water intake is sufficient and whether the baby sucks frequently.
