How to breastfeed after a cesarean section

Women who have had a cesarean section can usually breastfeed by lying on their side, sitting, semi-recumbent position, etc., and find the position that is comfortable for them. It is generally recommended that breastfeeding can be done 4-6 hours after cesarean section surgery. Mothers can find their own suitable position to breastfeed, such as lying on the side, sitting, semi-recumbent position, etc., in order not to cause pain in the wound. In addition, it should be noted that after cesarean section surgery, pay more attention to the hygiene of nipples, and also get out of bed as early as possible to move around and urinate. Getting out of bed and urinating can not only promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and uterine contraction, but also prevent the formation of blood clots after surgery. As you can see, pregnant women who have had a cesarean section should try to choose the position suitable for them to breastfeed and also pay attention to the recovery after the operation.
