So when is the best time to use the postpartum abdomen belt?

When is the best time to use the postpartum abdomen belt?

During pregnancy, the uterus will become bigger and the abdominal wall will become slack. In addition, when giving birth to a child, you need to exert force, which will lead to postpartum abdominal enlargement and abdominal muscle relaxation. The whole person looks the same as before delivery;

Therefore, many parturients will choose to use the abdominal belt after delivery, especially within one week after delivery, and it is best to start using it on the third day after delivery. However, the abdominal belt can't be tied all the time. Untie when lying in bed or sitting and resting, and fasten it when getting out of bed. Because long-term use of abdominal belt will affect blood circulation, limit the activities of lumbar muscles and abdominal back, and prolong the recovery time.

After 7 days of delivery, if the new mother needs to do more strenuous activities or return to work early, she can also use the abdominal belt for a short time. But after putting it on for an hour or two, it is necessary to untie it and let the waist and abdomen relax for a while.

Matters needing attention in using abdominal belt

Generally speaking, the abdominal belt should be worn half an hour after meals and after urination every day; Then you have to take off your tummy belt before going to bed, so that your abdomen can be relieved. At the same time, different parturients will have different delivery methods, and there are different places to pay attention to during the use of abdominal belt.
