How long can you lose weight after delivery?
Postpartum weight loss, not later than 90 days, but not earlier than 42 days.
According to the changes of women's physiological conditions, pregnancy and childbirth are likely to lead to deficiency of both qi and blood, resulting in problems such as body puffiness and abdominal wall relaxation. However, within 90 days after delivery, the hormones in the maternal body will return to their original state, and the metabolism will return to normal or even faster. The maternal body can take the opportunity to "discharge" the excess substances accumulated in the body and restore the slim figure, so it is the best period to lose weight after childbirth, which can be described as the "golden period of slimming".
On the other hand, we should also pay attention to postpartum weight loss, especially within 42 days after delivery, which belongs to postpartum recovery period and is not suitable for any weight loss.
Postpartum recovery includes the recovery and rest of reproductive organs, pelvic muscles, uterus and other organs, which generally takes 6 ~ 8 days, so you can get out of bed and walk appropriately according to your own situation within 42 days after delivery, which is not suitable for high-intensity exercise that requires effort. In addition, if the mother has fully recovered and does not need breastfeeding, she can also lose weight through proper exercise and diet control.
Can you lose weight by confinement?
After giving birth, women have not fully recovered, and they still need to shoulder the heavy responsibility of breastfeeding and parenting, so mothers can't lose weight in the next month, otherwise it will do great harm to their bodies. If it is not well maintained in the next month, there will be many moon diseases, but this does not mean that pregnant women can eat and drink at will in the next month. The next month's diet needs to be nutritious, and they also need to be careful not to eat too many high-calorie foods to avoid the burden of losing weight in the future.
If you breastfeed, you don't have to lose weight deliberately, which is not good for your baby's health.
If the baby eats milk powder, don't worry about reducing it during confinement, which will have a bad influence on physical recovery. It's not too late to cut back after this period of time. The most important thing is not to overeat and eat supplements when you are confinement.
You can't lose weight by confinement. At this time, your body is still very weak, and your wounds and physical level have not recovered before pregnancy. I suggest you do proper exercise to lose weight when you are confinement. As long as you eat on time, get up on time, live a regular life and insist on feeding your children milk, you can lose weight.
