The diet in the first week after delivery helps to quickly exorcise evil spirits and replenish vitality.
Dietary principles of natural delivery mothers
Drink more soft rice porridge.
On the first day after delivery, the appetite of the natural mother has not recovered. In addition, the body is tired and the intestinal digestive function is weak. Eating rice porridge can restore physical strength, stimulate gastrointestinal movement, stimulate appetite, and replenish deficiency and heresy.
Rice porridge is rich in nutritional value and has the reputation of "three major soups". Many places in northern China have the tradition of conditioning the body with millet after delivery. When cooking porridge, you can add red dates, longan and peanuts to cook together.
Eat more appetizing food.
The next day, the gastrointestinal tract of pure parturient was still in recovery period, and her appetite was poor. Foods that promote digestion and increase appetite can be added, such as apples, tomatoes, hawthorn and jujube. Among them, the dietary fiber contained in apples stimulates intestinal movement and accelerates defecation. Organic acids contained in tomatoes can protect vitamin C and improve the utilization rate of vitamin C.
Dietary principles of cesarean section mothers
Vent the air before eating.
Cesarean section women should strictly fast within 6 hours after delivery and eat after exhausting. First, because the anesthetic effect has not been completely eliminated, the systemic reaction is very low. Eating it will cause cough, vomiting and so on. If you are thirsty, you can feed a small amount of water at intervals. Second, because the intestine was stimulated during caesarean section, intestinal peristalsis weakened and abdominal distension occurred after operation. Exhaust is a symbol of intestinal peristalsis. You must exhaust before you can eat.
Generally speaking, exhaust will occur in about 6 hours. If there is no exhaust after 6 hours, you can take a small amount of radish soup, which is light and easy to digest and promotes exhaust. But be careful not to eat milk, beans and other indigestible and gas-producing foods.
Cesarean delivery women have exhausted, but the intestinal function generally takes 24 ~ 48 hours to gradually recover. At this time, the stomach is relatively weak, so we should first eat liquid food such as millet soup.
Semi-liquid food, but don't supplement it in large quantities.
At this time, the caesarean section women are still in the recovery period, and their gastrointestinal function is weak. It is best to eat some semi-liquid foods that are easy to digest, such as rice porridge, lean porridge and steamed eggs. You can't eat greasy tonics with pig's trotters soup.
And don't eat too much, prolong the recovery time, and avoid bloating and increasing abdominal pressure.
Eating more food in the first week after delivery to promote blood circulation, eliminate blood blockage and promote the discharge of evil labor is also the key to the discharge of lochia. Food supplement can promote lochia discharge. Whether it's a natural delivery or a caesarean section, you should eat more foods that increase the warming and nourishing sex appeal and hematopoietic function, such as glutinous rice porridge, lotus seeds and red dates, steamed red dates and rubber peaches, motherwort eggs, etc. Eating millet, eggs and brown sugar at the same time can replenish blood and deficiency and promote lochia discharge.
