Do you still use the abdominal belt four months after delivery? Wearing a belly band four months after delivery may not be very effective, but it will still have some effect. Whether it is a natural delivery or a caesarean section, the pelvis of mothers will be widened because of the increase of hormones, preparing for a natural delivery. However, the study found that the female hormones did not decrease within 42 days after delivery, and the pelvis still had good plasticity. Therefore, applying appropriate external force to the pelvis within 42 days after delivery can effectively help the pelvis recover to the state before delivery. In other words, unlike female abdominal recovery, pelvic bone can only recover effectively within one month.
Therefore, mothers who give birth naturally or have a caesarean section can start using pelvic braces as long as they feel good 2 or 3 days after delivery. Pelvic belt is different from ordinary abdominal belt, which is used in a lower position. Its function is to exert moderate inward pressure on the pelvis and promote its recovery as soon as possible.
Four months after delivery is not the best recovery state, and the abdominal effect may not be very good when using abdominal belt. But fat flow within 6 months after delivery is the best time to reshape your body. The rational use of abdominal belt has great influence on the recovery of postpartum body shape.
Precautions for using abdominal belt after caesarean section 1, it is not suitable to lie flat.
After the operation, the anesthetic effect disappears, and the parturient feels the wound pain, while the lying position is the most sensitive to the uterine contraction pain. Therefore, lateral position should be adopted, so that the body and the bed form an angle of 20-30 degrees, and a quilt or blanket should be placed behind the back to reduce the vibration and pulling pain of the incision during physical activity.
2, should not be too full
Eating too much after open surgery can lead to abdominal distension and increased abdominal pressure, which cannot be recovered. Therefore, we should fast within 6 hours after operation, and then gradually increase our food intake. Cold and cough can affect wound healing, and severe cough can even cause incision tearing. Pregnant women with colds should take medicine in time.
3, should not be too tight
Maternal waist is too tight, which will also increase abdominal pressure. Therefore, when using it, we must pay special attention.
There is a big difference between natural delivery and caesarean section: abdominal girdle is suitable for pregnant women undergoing surgery to achieve the effect of fixing wounds and relieving pain. From the point of view of obstetricians and gynecologists, the wound of natural birth is located in perineum, so there is no such problem. Of course, there is no need to deliberately use corsets. Even so, the proportion of natural producers using corsets is still high.
In the process of pregnancy and delivery, it is inevitable to compress and pull the pelvis and pelvic muscle groups and ligaments. Before the elastic tension of pelvic joints, fascia and ligaments is restored, lying-in women are prone to fall. At this time, the parturient uses corset, although it can make the feeling of falling less obvious and the activity more convenient, but the lower abdomen will not disappear.
As for the girdle, which advertises to abide by the ancient law, it can prevent the internal organs from shifting and restore the pelvic cavity size. Because the damage to pelvis caused by pregnancy and childbirth is inevitable, the physiological condition after childbirth cannot be compared with that before childbirth. The role of the band is to fix the wound, and whether it can restore the prenatal appearance through the band remains to be discussed.
4. Special circumstances
After caesarean section comes out of the knife room, most of the women lie flat and rest. If the parturient does not need special activities, the medical staff will not ask the parturient to use corsets at this time. But when Mommy starts to turn over, or gets out of bed the next day, especially before getting out of bed for the first time, in order to avoid the wound, the medical staff will definitely help Mommy use the corset.
Based on the hope that mommy can cough up phlegm the next day after caesarean section and encourage mommy to get out of bed, doctors generally advise mommy to start using corsets on the first day after operation. After mommy used the corset, the pain was relieved to a certain extent and the cooperation was better.
5. Don't use the abdominal belt for a long time.
Long-term use of abdominal belt will lead to poor blood circulation, which will lead to varicose veins of lower limbs, hemorrhoids, lumbar muscle strain and so on. In addition, if the postpartum waist is too tight, the abdominal pressure increases, and the supporting force of the ligaments of the reproductive organs decreases, it will lead to uterine prolapse, uterine retroflexion, and anterior or posterior vaginal wall bulging, which is easy to induce gynecological diseases such as pelvic venous congestion, pelvic inflammatory disease and adnexitis.
