After a cesarean section, you can usually drink a small amount of soup after 6 hours, and after 3 days you can drink normal soup foods. For 6 hours after the cesarean section, the mother should lie flat and not eat anything. Because the anesthesia is still inhibiting the peristalsis of the stomach and intestines, forcing to eat will only lead to abdominal distension. After 6 hours, the mother can drink a small amount of liquid food, such as porridge and soup, but not flatulent food such as milk and soy milk. On the second day of cesarean section, the mother usually has already deflated and can eat at this time, but because the gastrointestinal function has not fully recovered, she still cannot eat fish, meat, eggs and other nutritious food, and can only eat some thin porridge, thin noodles, or eat some liver puree, minced meat, egg soup, and the main food is still liquid food or semi-liquid food. In order to ensure adequate nutrition, the mother can take the form of eating less and more meals, 4-5 times a day. On and after the third day of cesarean section, the effect of anesthesia has been completely eliminated, and the mother can eat like a normal mother, so she can start eating according to the general maternal diet principles, with comprehensive supplements and balanced nutrition. In order to promote the healing of the abdominal wounds, women can also eat more eggs, meat, fish soup and other high-protein foods. You can also eat some peanuts, pig’s feet, carp and other foods that have a lactogenic effect. When the family stews the soup, pay attention to the soup should not be too greasy, otherwise it is not conducive to the digestion of the mother.
