After the cesarean section, if the mother has no discomfort, she can usually take a bath about 1-2 weeks after delivery when the incision is well healed. The incision for a cesarean section is made in the lower abdomen and is about 10 cm in length. The surgery starts with a layer-by-layer incision through the skin of the abdomen, including fat, muscle, fascia, peritoneum, and finally into the pelvic cavity. It takes at least one week for the incision to heal after the surgery, and before the incision heals, it is absolutely not allowed to take a shower, otherwise it will easily lead to incision cracking, fat liquefaction and incision infection. In addition, within a week after caesarean section, the amount of vaginal dew is high, so bathing at this time is also easy to cause reproductive tract infection. A week after the birth, the maternal malodorous fluid is obviously reduced, the body condition has basically returned to normal, the lower abdominal incision has basically healed, at this time you can take a bath. It should be noted that when bathing after caesarean section, the water temperature should be adjusted, and it is advisable to choose a shower and avoid a tub bath to prevent reproductive tract infections. After bathing, you should also dry in time to avoid getting cold and affecting the postpartum recovery, and clean the incision with gentle movements to avoid causing pain in the incision.
