1. Do I need to buy a dehydrator? Do I need to buy a breast pad? In fact, breast pumps can be bought one week after delivery. A small amount of breast pads can be prepared first, and it is not too late to buy them when the amount of milk comes up. Choose big brands and electric dehydrators if necessary. Some mothers may say: What should I do if I don't pump the baby the next day when I have a baby for the first time? This time belongs to postpartum physiological lactation. What actually swells up in the breast is not milk, but local edema caused by postpartum hormone level change and mammary duct dilatation. At this time, the amount of colostrum is very small, which is not enough to cause milk deposition. How to solve it? The breast pump can't be used too often, which will easily cause the nipple to harden and enlarge, which is not conducive to the connection and sucking of newborns. Be sure to kiss and feed before using the milking machine. Mothers who want to breastfeed suggest learning the method of hand milking during pregnancy, which is conducive to establishing lactation reflex after delivery and alleviating physiological breast enlargement. Especially for mothers with flat or invaginated nipples, besides hand milking, they can also learn nipple cross exercises. Most mothers with flat inverted nipples can also breastfeed, unless the degree of inverted nipples reaches the point where surgery is needed, and they need to go to the breast department in advance. Drink plenty of water, insist on letting your baby suck early and diligently, and don't send milk blindly. Remember to drink a glass of warm water before and after feeding. For mothers who need to pour milk at work, a dehydrator is a must. 2. Do you need to prepare for the corset? The answer is: If you are a expectant mother who plans to have a caesarean section, a corset is necessary. Some hospitals will inform them before hospitalization that it is necessary to bring them into the operating room after the operation. After the operation, the doctor bandaged it and sent it back to the ward. Variety selection should try to combine pelvic belt and abdominal belt together. The same choice of big brands has quality assurance and is not easy to shift allergies. It is even better to take the trouble to prepare a special bed-ridden patient turning pillow (not a pregnant woman pillow). The bra has a half-life within one week after delivery. Whether it's turning over, nursing, sitting up to eat, or getting out of bed 24 hours after surgery, I simply don't know how to live without it. A natural mother can buy it or not. After all, corsets have no effect on the abdomen, so postpartum weight loss may be just a good wish. Note: the corset can't be used 24 hours a day, and it's not used as much as possible when lying in bed. Or use it for no more than 8 hours every day. 3. Do you need nursing underwear? The answer is: necessary. It is specifically stated here that it is used in winter. You can prepare 3 or 4 sets of changes. There are various styles of nursing underwear, and it is more convenient to recommend nursing underwear with holes in the chest. One week after delivery, most mothers will sweat more after delivery. 4. You can prepare a set of travel toiletries when you enter the hospital. There is no need to buy a toothbrush for Yuezi, just use an ordinary one. (Private hospitals with good conditions may provide high-grade delivery rooms, so you can ask in advance. It's convenient to take the travel suit to the hospital ward, so don't leave it after discharge. After all, even if the ward is a single room, the situation cannot be the same as at home, and it is not a pity to throw it away. 5. 2 washbasins for lying-in women, 1 bucket, 4 towels, a pair of non-slip slippers, at least one microwave lunch box, special chopsticks and spoons; Two cups (one for drinking water, one for medicine and one for keeping warm in winter), a bottle of 75% alcohol (ward table, bedding, drawer for wiping and disinfection), and a disposable sanitary pad (especially for mothers who live in non-single rooms). 6, elbow straws, or cups with straws, medical cotton swabs are essential. You need to drink more water after delivery, which is beneficial to milk production and can prevent urinary system infection and anesthetic drug metabolism. For a lying-in woman, it is very painful to get up every time she drinks water and takes medicine after a necessary operation after cesarean section, so this one must be chosen. Do not drink water before operation, and do not eat or drink water until 6 hours after operation. This is when cotton swabs come in handy. Family members can wet their mother's lips with cotton swabs without chapping and discomfort. You can also clean the nipple surface with a cotton swab dipped in warm water before feeding. 7. Two boxes of paper, three measuring sanitary napkins, three rolls of knife paper (not required by some hospitals), and two to three packs of ordinary night sanitary napkins. The puerperal pad is 5 ~ 10 (it doesn't matter if you buy too much, the rest can be made into diapers for babies, and the size should be as large as possible), and disposable underwear (10 ~ 14 is prepared, which is convenient and easy to use during hospitalization and confinement). You don't need to bring too much paper. If the epidemic situation in COVID-19 is inconvenient, you can bring more. Measuring sanitary napkins is convenient for observing lochia discharge on the first day after delivery, which is as necessary as postpartum pads. Puerperal women don't need to buy puerperal pads, and adult care pads are easy to use and cheap. 8, a set of discharge clothes, don't lose your hat and thick coat in winter. Because of the epidemic situation in COVID-19, the central air conditioners in some hospitals can't be turned on, so we need to bring our own extra blankets. Be sure to ask the nurses in the ward in advance to avoid catching a cold, because there is no extra bedding in the ward. (The clothes of the accompanying family members should also be taken into account. Ask whether to provide it, how much to provide, how many people you can accompany, whether you need an accompanying certificate, and whether you need nucleic acid testing to accompany your family members. During the epidemic, the management of public hospitals was particularly strict. 9. All kinds of certificates must have ID cards, medical insurance cards, maternity service certificates, birth inspection books, various inspection results, cash (some expenses may need to be paid in cash), bank cards, electronic equipment (iPad, camera, mobile phone, etc.). Pass the boring time, record the birth of the baby, etc. ). Be sure to keep the admission receipt, which will be used when you check out. Birth certificate processing time and newborn landing insurance. 10, the mother's belongings and the baby's belongings are placed separately (obvious labels can be attached to the bag), and the food, clothes and uses are placed separately. Be sure to tell your family and companions where to put all kinds of supplies and how to use them to avoid making mistakes in your busy schedule.
