The harm of using abdominal belt immediately after delivery
Although there is no wound in the abdomen after natural delivery, it is not recommended to use the abdominal belt immediately.
Because after natural delivery, there are still body fluids such as blood stasis and gas in the postpartum mother's abdomen, which need to be naturally eliminated from the body through the circulation of the body. If the abdominal band is used too early, it will limit the blood circulation in the body, which is not conducive to the discharge of postpartum lochia, and is not conducive to the smooth breathing and the recovery of organs.
In addition, the premature use of abdominal band after delivery will also stress the pelvis, forcing the soft pelvis to expand outward, which is not conducive to the recovery of the pelvis.
It is not recommended to use abdomen band without special circumstances after delivery.
Generally speaking, proper abdominal banding after caesarean section is beneficial to wound healing, but it is best not to use abdominal banding without special circumstances after delivery. Especially if the feeling of postpartum fall is very serious, don't continue to use corset, so as not to make the situation worse and even lead to the possibility of uterine prolapse.
In addition, if the abdominal belt is used for a long time, it will seriously affect the blood circulation, limit the activities of the lumbar muscles and abdominal back, and may also cause back pain, hemorrhoids and other dangers.
Tips: If the new mother needs to do more strenuous activities or return to work early after 7 days of natural delivery, she can use the abdominal belt for a short time, which can protect the postpartum uterine wound. However, don't wear your abdomen for too long. After putting it on for an hour or two, it is best to untie it and let the waist and abdomen relax for a while.
Abdominal girdle is not the first choice for postpartum slimming.
If the postpartum mother wants to lose weight, abdomen band is definitely not your first choice. One is that long-term abdominal surgery is not good for your health, and the other is that the main function of abdominal surgery itself is not to lose weight, but many people misunderstand it.
In fact, the fat is flowing in the third month after delivery, which is the key moment to reshape the body. At this time, we can make our body recover quickly through proper exercise and reasonable diet. Half a year after delivery is the golden period of weight loss.
The main function of abdomen band is not to lose weight.
In fact, the main function of abdominal belt is to help shrink waist circumference, prevent backache, prevent gastroptosis, help stabilize uterus and shrink pelvis. It's not the effective slimming effect widely circulated on the Internet, but many people have some misunderstandings about the abdomen, thinking that the abdominal belt can prevent the abdominal muscles from relaxing and keep slim.
In fact, the recovery of postpartum abdominal muscle tension is related to exercise and parity, and a new mother with strong muscles can completely rely on her own quality to make her abdominal muscles return to normal.
