How long can you take a shower after delivery is determined according to the mode of delivery and body recovery, and the specific time varies from person to person. If there is no lateral incision or perineal tear and the body is in good condition, you can take a shower on the 7th day after delivery; if the perineal laceration or the lateral incision is healing well, you can also take a shower on the 7th day after delivery. However, if the lateral incision has not healed or the perineal laceration is serious, it is recommended not to take a shower first to avoid infection. In the case of caesarean section, because of the incision in the abdomen, it is recommended to take a shower about two weeks after delivery if the wound has recovered well. In addition, attention needs to be paid to keeping warm during the bathing process, ensuring the right room temperature and water temperature, and the body needs to be dried immediately after bathing. Secondly, bathing after delivery should be mainly in the shower, avoiding tub bath or sitz bath.
