A. “Bad wind” Many people think that women in labor are afraid of the wind, that the wind is the scourge of “postpartum wind” (referring to puerperal fever). Therefore, the doors and windows of the premises are closed tightly, curtains are hung over the bed, and the mother is wrapped in head and legs to prevent the wind from attacking, so what is the crime of the natural wind? In fact, the cause of puerperal fever is the pathogenic bacteria hidden in the maternal reproductive organs, mostly from the antenatal examination which is not strictly disinfected, or the maternal inattention to puerperal hygiene. In fact, if the indoor hygiene environment is poor, the air is cloudy, easy to make the mother and baby suffer from respiratory infections; in the summer, the doors and windows are closed, wrapped head and legs, but also cause maternal heat stroke, is not desirable. Second, “the later you get out of bed, the better” Many people think that the maternal physique is weak and more in need of nourishment, let its long-term sedentary, meals are served to the bed to eat, this practice is much less harmful. Because of the longer period of time after childbirth do not get up and move, easy to make the maternal in a state of high coagulation in the lower extremities of venous thrombosis. At the same time, the pelvic floor muscle tissue lack of exercise after delivery, will not be able to hold the uterus, rectum and bladder, easy to cause uterine prolapse, rectum or bladder bulge. Early postpartum bed activity is not only conducive to faster blood flow to the lower extremities and dew discharge, but also enables the abdominal muscles to be exercised and recover the original contraction force as soon as possible, thus protecting the uterus, rectum and bladder and other organs. Generally speaking, you can sit up against the bed 24 hours after delivery, and you can get out of bed and walk on the third day. Third, “can not wash hair and bath” Many places, especially in rural areas, have the habit of washing hair and bathing only after the full moon of the mother. This is not desirable. Because the mother to sweat during childbirth, after childbirth also often sweat, coupled with the continuous discharge of dew and lactation, the body is more easily dirty than the average person, easier for pathogens to invade. Therefore, it is more important to pay attention to personal hygiene after childbirth. Wash your hair often and take a bath often, but pay attention to the use of shower, should not take a tub bath. Hot summer, more should be washed once a day with warm boiled water. Fourth, “should be taboo” Many places have the habit of making maternity taboo, such as beef and mutton, fish and shrimp and other fishy things are not allowed to eat. After the birth of the need for adequate and rich nutrients, the main and secondary food should be diversified, only eat one or two can not meet the needs of the maternal body, but also not conducive to the secretion of mammary glands. Five, “the lighter the dish the better” Many places do not let the mother eat salt, the dish does not put a little salt, which is also not right. Because of the postpartum sweating, mammary secretion, maternal body is prone to water and sodium shortage; therefore, after giving birth should not eat less salt, but should not eat too much salt. Six, “can not brush teeth” Many women do not brush their teeth in the month, which is also not right. In fact, maternity should pay more attention to oral hygiene than the average person. Because of the number of maternal meals, food residues left on the surface of the teeth and teeth chances increase, and oral infection or one of the sources of puerperal infection. Therefore, after childbirth, you should brush your teeth once a day in the morning and once a day in the evening, and rinse your mouth after each meal. Seven, “soup is more nutritious than meat” After the puerperium, you should always drink some chicken soup, ribs soup, fish soup and pig’s feet soup to facilitate lactation, but you should also eat meat. Meat is much more nutritious than soup, and the saying “soup is more nutritious than meat” is not scientific. Eight, “the more eggs you eat, the better” eggs are nutritious and easy to digest, suitable for maternal consumption, but not the more you eat, the better. Many women eat one or two dozen a day, not only can not absorb, but also affect the intake of other types of food. Nine, “24 hours after giving birth to milk” Some regions have the habit of breastfeeding the newborn only after 24 hours after giving birth, believing that it is not good to start milk early. On the contrary, the sooner you start breastfeeding, the better. Because the baby sucking on the nipple can promote the secretion of milk from the mammary glands, and is conducive to the contraction of the uterus, so that the uterus returns as soon as possible. At the same time, the newborn can get nutritious colostrum as early as possible, so it can be said that “three birds with one stone”. Ten, “full moon can resume sex life” because people are accustomed to full moon as the maternal body completely recovered from the standard. So, some couples just full moon when they resume sex, it is too early to do so. This is because childbirth is a loss to the uterine lining and vaginal wall that cannot be fully healed in 4 weeks. Experts believe that it is safe to resume sex 6-8 weeks after delivery.
