After all, the body is one's own. Most people in China would rather believe that confinement is good for their health and stay at home for a month honestly in order to have a good body in the future. And China has maternity leave, usually three months. Cesarean section and dystocia take a long time, so it's good to be confined for a month for such a long time.
Of course, for the tradition of confinement, we also need to take its essence and discard its dross. Maternal women will consume a lot of energy after giving birth. At this time, the body is weak and the immunity is low. Therefore, confinement is to let the mother rest more and avoid the wind. After all, breastfeeding is also a matter of consuming qi and blood. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with resting at home. When children sleep, they will sleep more and replenish their strength.
Now the doctor also says that you can wash your hair and take a bath after giving birth, as long as you don't catch a cold. Because there was no hair dryer to dry hair before, wet hair would have a headache, just like getting caught in the rain. As long as you blow dry your hair, there will be no problem. After all, the body will be infected with many bacteria after delivery, and washing is also to prevent infection and is good for the body.
Of course, you can't always lie down. Whether it is a natural delivery or a caesarean section, you should go to the ground after 24 hours to prevent uterine adhesion. Some parturients lie down with pulmonary embolism after delivery and will die if they are not treated in time. Whether it is productive or not, drinking hot water and eating digestible food are good for your health. Brushing your teeth in confinement should also be carried out normally to maintain oral health. If you have the conditions, you can also go to the Confucius Center. With well-matched nutritious dishes, postpartum yoga helps to restore the body.
