If the perineal circumcision has been performed during the course of normal delivery, the bathing time should be decided according to the wound healing time. In addition, affected by physical factors, weak women can appropriately extend the bath time; 2, cesarean section: cesarean section usually need to wait until the wound is healed before taking a bath, in order to prevent the wound from infection, affecting the recovery of the maternal body.
