The puerperium refers to the period of time between the delivery of the placenta and the restoration of the reproductive system to its pre-pregnancy state, usually 6 weeks, commonly known as “sitting on the moon”. The old idea of sitting in the moonlight: you can’t wear slippers to avoid heel pain. The new concept of the monthly sitting: you can wear slippers, but the soles of your feet should be kept warm. Wearing “tiger shoes” in winter is a good choice, while plastic slippers should not be worn in summer, as they are cooler and harder, making them very uncomfortable for mothers. The old idea of sitting on the moon: can not wash your hair, feet, bath, otherwise it will be outside the wind and cold, the future will be a headache, joint pain, bone pain. New concept of menstruation: you can wash your hair, feet, and take a bath, but pay attention to the temperature of the water. Wang just gave birth to a son on June 24, postpartum due to sweating, milk and bad dew and continuous secretion, the body emits an unpleasant odor, days of high temperatures, the body grows a lot of prickly heat, so that she was sullen the whole day, she was worried about the skin pustules induced puerperal infections, and even more worried about the feeding of the baby is not hygienic. But her mother-in-law just won’t let her take a bath, saying that it will fall into the root of the disease. In fact, there are hot water heaters in the family, the normal delivery of 24 hours after delivery can be warm water shower, feminine wounds in the maternal should be healed before showering, cesarean section of the maternal debridement, as long as the surgical wounds are healing well, you can take a bath, but do not take a bath, so as to avoid upstream infections induced by pelvic inflammatory disease. Each bath time should not be too long, generally 5 to 10 minutes, room temperature of 20 ℃ is good, the water temperature of 37 ℃ is good, the water is too cold will make the maternal qi and blood stagnation, resulting in menstrual irregularities, joint pain. Wash and dry immediately after washing, do not take the moisture into the ventilation environment, not to mention the hair dryer. Boiled ginger water has the effect of removing cold, can be used to wipe clean the skin. The old idea of moonlighting: you can’t brush your teeth, otherwise it will lead to loose teeth, bleeding gums or toothache in the future. The new idea of sitting in the moonlight: you can brush your teeth and gargle, but the toothbrush can’t be too hard and the mouthwash can’t be too cold. Xiao Li after giving birth to a child, every time you brush your teeth there will be a small amount of bleeding gums, it turned out to be due to the secretion of progesterone during pregnancy so that the gums edema, become loose, and then replaced with a soft-bristled toothbrush with a massage function, not only to achieve the purpose of cleaning, but also to avoid bleeding gums. Maternity meals more often than normal, food debris stored in the teeth of the opportunity is also more, chickens, ducks, fish, meat and eggs, plus millet porridge, high-sugar, high-protein foods, in the nourishment of the new mother’s body at the same time, but also lead to a large number of bacteria in the mouth, if you don’t brush your teeth, they will be in the teeth of the fermentation, acid, prompting enamel loss, softening of the teeth, induced gingivitis, periodontitis, dental caries, leading to gum recession, tooth roots Exposed, and ultimately loose teeth, which is the real reason for the folk so-called “give birth to a child to lose a tooth”. Gargling after meals, morning and evening brushing is very beneficial to women in labor, the next day after delivery can be brushed, brushing and rinsing with warm water, can avoid hot and cold oral stimulation, reduce dental allergies, leaving the root of the toothache. The old idea of sitting on the moon: you can’t comb your hair, it will cause scalp pain. The new idea of sitting on the moon: combing the hair can stimulate the blood circulation of the scalp, keep the hair root healthy and make the hair better. You can prepare a clean piece of gauze for the mother, wet the gauze with alcohol, put the wet gauze on the comb, so that when combing the hair can be cleaned at the same time the scalp dirt and grease. The old idea of sitting in the moonlight: you can’t eat vegetables and fruits, vegetables and fruits are cold and cold, eating will hurt the spleen and stomach and teeth. The new concept of sitting on the moon: you can eat vegetables and fruits, but pay attention to not too much, not too mixed, not too cold. Avoid eating raw and cold on the maternal have some reason, because after giving birth to a child, the maternal body is relatively weak, eating “raw and cold” food will affect the recovery of the spleen and stomach function. You can juice fruits and drink them warm. Ms. Chang’s post-partum abdominal muscle relaxation, defecation weakness, coupled with eating less, sweating, fruit and vegetable insufficient, the result of four days and still no stool, and then ate a banana laxative, only to solve the problem of constipation. 500 grams of fruits and vegetables a day recommended by the WHO for all people to consume, the mother, the recovery of the body, the secretion of breast milk need a lot of vitamins, especially VC has the effect of hemostasis and promote the healing of wounds, fruits and vegetables, and the role of the body to promote the healing of wounds. The role of healing, fruits and vegetables in the more dietary fiber can promote intestinal peristalsis, conducive to postpartum laxative. The old reason for sitting in the moonlight: you can’t open the window to the wind, or else you will have a lifetime of bone pain. Even in the height of summer also requires doors and windows closed tightly, wearing a hat, wearing a headscarf, long-sleeved pants, tight cuffs trouser legs, and then covered tightly with a quilt. The new concept of sitting on the moon: you can open the window, but to avoid the wind. Maternity to avoid sweating all over the body, because in the body sweating, pores are open, encountered cold air will enter the body deep lead to disease. Xiaoliu after pregnancy weight gain of 50 pounds, discharged from the hospital back home, all day windows and doors are closed, but also pull a curtain, the house is both dark and hot, they wear more, the body is always wet, sticky, very uncomfortable, after returning home the next day in the afternoon, suddenly appeared 40 ℃ fever, flushing, panic and shortness of breath, thought it was the side incision infected, to the hospital to know that it is a heatstroke, in the hospital two days of conditioning! After the hospital, she went home and opened the window of her bedroom 2 times a day for 20 minutes each time, and soon recovered her strength and her breast milk secretion increased significantly. The old idea of sitting in the womb: no air-conditioning, no fans. The new concept of sitting on the moon: available electric fan, air conditioning cooling, but should not blow directly on the body. Maternity living environment should be clean, comfortable, quiet, ventilated, the room temperature is maintained at about 26 ℃, relative humidity in 50 ~ 60%, so that you can sit in the moonlight fresh. In the hot summer, to blow the fan in the opposite direction, so that the wind hit the wall and then bounce back, so that the indoor air circulation, air conditioning cold air must not be blown directly to the maternal. The old idea of menstruation: you can’t go out and see the wind, you have to stay at home. New concept of menstruation: You can go out, but pay attention to keep warm and prevent colds. Ms. Zhang has been unhappy after giving birth, because her mother-in-law from the countryside did not allow her to go out, only to stay in their own rooms, her mother-in-law believes that the woman just gave birth to a child is very weak, resistance to wind and cold ability is poor, to go outdoors will be exposed to the wind and catching a cold, fall joint pain, rheumatism, headache and other “moon” disease, that is a matter of a lifetime. Good in-laws only live two weeks back to the countryside, Zhang only “restored freedom”, the mood is also good. Most of the patients with depression and “sitting in the moon” when the activities are restricted, boring life related to the fresh air outdoors will bring a good mood for the mother, the appropriate light will also increase the content of VD in the body, to promote the absorption of calcium, prevention of post-partum osteoporosis, and improve the quality of breast milk. The old idea of sitting in the moonlight: you can’t read books and newspapers, watch TV, use your eyes in the month will cause vision loss, bad eyes in the future. New concept of sitting in the month: you can read books and newspapers, watch TV, but not excessive. Avoid eye fatigue is necessary to avoid excessive consumption of heart blood, affecting the blood supply to the organs. But appropriate television and reading books and newspapers, is conducive to relieve depression, reduce the incidence of postpartum depression. The old idea of sitting in the moon child – can not have sex, full moon before you can have intercourse. The new concept of sitting on the moon – away from sexual life is necessary, but 30 days is not enough time. The damage caused by childbirth to the lining of the uterus and the vaginal wall takes 42 days to gradually recover, and premature intercourse is prone to inflammation, uterine bleeding, and perineal tearing. The correct approach is: normal delivery in 42 days after delivery to resume sexual life, cesarean section in 2 months after delivery to resume sexual life, while contraception. Sitting in the month of the old reason child: Hu eat Hu have reason 1, after delivery need to immediately supplement chicken soup fish soup; 2, soup than meat nutritious; 3, drink bone broth calcium is the best; 4, to make up for the big, you should eat more chickens and ducks, fish, meat, eggs, a chicken every day, more than 10 eggs, the more the better high-protein, can help mothers to restore their strength, help the wound to heal, to the big oil and meat, or else the milk is not enough. 5, can not eat salty; 6, drink milk, eat eggs can supplement iron. New concept of menstruation: to scientific nourishment 1, the mother in the first few days after delivery should eat small meals, light diet, after delivery of maternal gastrointestinal tract peristalsis weak, should not be immediately supplemented with greasy chicken and fish soups, should be the first to restore the function of the gastrointestinal tract, after a proper rest and recuperation, and then increase the nutritious type of soups to help milk secretion. 2, meat is more nutritious than soup, maternal easy to sweat, and secretion of milk, water needs more than the average person, drink some soup is beneficial. Soup contains soluble amino acids, vitamins, minerals, flavor, but also can stimulate gastric secretion, help digestion. However, proteins, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients are mainly found in meat, soup is only a very small number of meat is more nutritious than soup, so, should be soup and meat should be eaten together, in order to ensure access to nutrients, but also to promote lactation; 3, milk is the best calcium food. Maternal calcium deficiency will cause osteoporosis, leaving hidden dangers to future health. Although bone broth contains calcium, but the amount is not much, the phosphorus in the soup by the kidney excretion will also take away part of the calcium. Milk and milk products not only contain a lot of calcium, but also have a high absorption rate, which is the best source of natural calcium. Maternity should drink milk every day, while eating more small shrimp, small fish (even bone to eat), sesame paste, tofu, to achieve the purpose of calcium. 4, month than usual eat more poultry, fish, meat, eggs, milk, beans and other high-quality protein is very necessary, especially marine fish, rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, can be passed through the breast milk to infants, promote the development of the infant brain, seafood can also be supplemented with zinc, iodine, calcium, magnesium and other trace elements. Eggs are very valuable, but 2 per day is enough, too much intake will not be absorbed, but cause indigestion, aggravate the burden on the kidneys, affect the absorption of other nutrients. In addition, hen has the effect of milk return, will affect breastfeeding. Excess fat will lead to an increase in fat globules in breast milk, causing infant lipid diarrhea. 5, you can eat salt, but do not over-salted; 6, blood, lean meat, animal liver is iron rich food, milk protein, calcium is very rich, but is a “poor iron food”, the iron in the egg yolk is not easy to be absorbed, so, just eat eggs, drink milk and can not improve anemia. Maternity should eat more lean meat, animal liver and blood, while supplementing VC to promote iron absorption. In short, the old reasoning is not a little bit no, the new concept of menstruation also has some additional conditions, mothers-in-law certainly outdated concepts, but too much “Westernized” and does not meet China’s national conditions, or that: the month can not sit, but to sit scientifically.
