There is no fixed recipe for what to eat in the first 1-3 days of labor, the specific choice needs to refer to the mode of delivery of the mother, the normal delivery of light, easy to digest and nutritious food can be, cesarean section need to ventilate before you can start to eat. In the case of normal delivery, the fetus is delivered vaginally and the mother’s body does not suffer any obvious damage, but she is physically exhausted during the delivery and her gastrointestinal function is relatively poor, so it is recommended to eat light, easy-to-digest and nutritious food for 1-3 days after the delivery. In cesarean section, there is a surgical incision in the abdomen, and the peristalsis of the intestines in the abdominal cavity is slowed down during the surgery due to anesthesia and other factors, and eating too early can lead to abdominal distension, abdominal pain, and other adverse reactions. Therefore, mothers with cesarean section need to eat fluids if they have not had gas in the first 1-3 days after delivery, and they should eat semi-fluid food if they have gas in their mouths and have more frequent and less frequent meals, so that their diets will gradually change into normal diets. Maternity diet should consult a medical professional to avoid eating blindly, which may lead to adverse consequences.
