Women are very weak after giving birth and need confinement to recuperate before they can recover their physical condition. Some pregnant women need to lie down correctly at rest after giving birth, so that their bodies can recover better. But many pregnant women don't know much about it, which leads to physical discomfort. So is it better to lie flat after delivery or to raise the pillow?

After delivery, you can choose a supine position. You should change your posture in half a day or so, because the lying-in woman can't lie in one posture for too long, otherwise it will be bad for the recovery of the lying-in woman's body organs. If the parturient is delivered by caesarean section, it is best to lie flat within six hours after delivery, at the same time, let the parturient's head lean to one side, and place sandbags on the parturient's abdomen, which can reduce the bleeding of abdominal wound. After lying flat for 4 hours, it can help the parturient turn over, help the parturient to expel gas from the body, and is beneficial to the gastrointestinal peristalsis of the parturient.

When lying on the side, the lying-in woman can hold a quilt at an angle of 20-30 degrees with the bed, which is helpful to relieve the pain caused by pulling the wound during physical activities. It's not good for lying-in women to hold pillows. If you lie on your back all the time, you will be in danger of uterine contraction, which may also lead to the symptoms of increased leucorrhea in low back pain. Maternal lochia is not easy to discharge. Therefore, it is better to choose a prone position after childbirth.
