How long will it take to get back into shape after delivery?
How long it takes for mothers to recover after childbirth has always been one of the topics that mothers are most concerned about. In fact, the speed of physical recovery depends on various factors. The first choice is mother's physical fitness, which can recover quickly. In addition, it is also closely related to whether the mother breastfeeds, diet and exercise habits. So every mother's physical recovery time is different. However, you can still write the following special milestones on your personal calendar!
24 hours after delivery
Generally speaking, mothers will lose 10.8 kg baby almost all their lives. There will be blood loss, body fluids and amniotic fluid when giving birth. In these 24 hours, the' savings value' in your body after delivery has begun to decline. In other words, a lot of the weight gained before came from the baby itself.
A week later.
At this time, you will still "release" a lot of body fluids, especially if you have used painless delivery, which means you will continue to lose weight. However, I suggest you don't have to weigh weighing scale in a hurry now. It's better to look at how clothes fit better than the size.
Breastfeeding may also help to lose weight: although it is suggested that women should consume 500 calories a day during breastfeeding, they will still lose more weight after giving birth. In fact, breastfeeding will make women lose more weight after childbirth, because breastfeeding consumes calories. But this doesn't apply to everyone, because some women lose weight faster than others, whether they are breastfeeding or not.
Two weeks later.
Novice mommy should not weigh herself for the first two weeks after delivery. At this time, your body may still be preparing for breastfeeding, and your hormone level begins to decline. In other words, you are still in the period of "postpartum depression". Seeing the numbers you don't want to see in weighing scale may make you cry immediately. The numbers in weighing scale usually can't reflect the changes of body fat correctly, so don't use this to blame yourself. It is recommended to measure the reduced size with a tape measure every month instead of the reduced weight.
A month later.
This sounds too good to be true: new mothers will lose 18kg a month after delivery, but it is true because most women are advised to gain 22.5-3 1.5kg during pregnancy. Therefore, one month after giving birth to a baby, you may be inseparable from a good prenatal figure!
Six weeks later
During this time, the uterus contracts back to the pelvis, and your stomach will look flatter and smaller. The change of the stomach is a big change. Maybe you can put on your bikini again!
A few months later
If you have healthy eating habits during pregnancy and stick to them all the time, your weight will be close to normal within a few months after delivery. When your body allows, doing some exercise can also help you get better faster.
Nine months later,
There is some truth in the sentence "add September and subtract September". However, if you gain more weight than the recommended weight of 22.5-3 1.5kg, it may take longer to get back to your original self. Just stick to it!
As can be seen from the above, postpartum physical recovery takes time. Don't rush for success. As long as you keep good eating habits and keep exercising, I believe that mothers can return to their girlhood as soon as possible!
