Postpartum Mothers Should Pay Attention To These Eighteen Taboos.

The body is very weak, it needs to supplement enough high quality nutrition, and at the same time, it also has to shoulder the heavy responsibility for newborn nursing. Therefore, postnatal diet and nursing are particularly important. There are eighteen forbidden postnatal prohibition.

1, avoid eating more MSG.

In order to avoid zinc deficiency in infants, new mothers should avoid excessive monosodium glutamate.

Generally speaking, adults who eat MSG are harmless, while infants, especially infants within 12 weeks, are fed with a high protein diet while eating excessive MSG, which is harmful.

Because monosodium glutamate in the monosodium glutamate will enter the baby through milk.

Excessive sodium glutamate has a serious effect on infants, especially babies born within 12 weeks. It can combine with zinc in infants' blood to produce glutamic acid which can not be absorbed by the body, while zinc excreted with urine, resulting in the lack of zinc in infants. This way babies are not only prone to poor taste, anorexia, but also can cause mental retardation, growth retardation and other adverse consequences.

Some new mothers are eager to take ginseng after Natal, and want to patch up their body.

In fact, new mothers eager to use ginseng to supplement their bodies are harmful and useless.

Ginseng contains a variety of effective ingredients, these components can produce a wide range of exciting effects on the human body, of which the central nervous system's excitatory effect can lead to insomnia, irritability, uneasiness and other adverse reactions.

And the new mother who just gave birth to a child has great energy and physical exertion, and needs to lie in bed very much.

Ginseng is a medicine for replenishing qi, promoting blood circulation and accelerating blood flow.

This is very bad for the new mother who just gave birth to a child.

Because during the delivery process, the blood vessels of internal and external genitals are more damaged, taking ginseng can affect the self healing of damaged blood vessels, resulting in bleeding and even bleeding.

Therefore, a new mother should not take ginseng in the week after giving birth. After 7 days of childbirth, the wound of her new mother has healed. Taking ginseng will help restore the strength of the new mother.

But you should not take too much.

Ginseng fever can cause new mothers to get angry or cause fever.

New mothers eat a wide variety of foods to supplement their nutrition.

3, avoid eating too much eggs.

Medical research shows that it is best not to eat eggs within a few hours after childbirth.

Because during the delivery process, the new mother is physically exhausted, sweating and body fluids are insufficient, and digestion ability also decreases.

If you eat eggs immediately after childbirth, it will be difficult to digest and increase the burden of the stomach and intestines.

Within a few hours after childbirth, half liquid or liquid diet should be taken.

During the whole puerperium, according to the national standard of nutrition for pregnant and new mothers, it needs about 100 grams of protein a day, so 3~4 eggs a day is enough.

Excessive consumption of eggs will also increase the burden of stomach and stomach, and even easily cause stomach disease.

4, avoid eating more brown sugar.

Brown sugar is rich in nutrients, fast in energy release, high in nutrient absorption and utilization, and has warm and tonifying properties.

After the birth of the new mother, due to the loss of some blood, the body is weak and needs a large number of rapid supplement of iron, calcium, manganese, zinc and other trace elements and proteins.

Brown sugar also contains "motherwort" ingredients, which can promote uterine contraction, produce blood stasis in the posterior uterine cavity, and promote the early recovery of the uterus.

After the birth of the new mother, the vital energy is greatly impaired, the constitution is weak, and some brown sugar can be replenishing qi and nourishing blood, strengthening the spleen and warming the stomach, dispelling wind cold and activating blood circulation to Dissipate Stasis.

However, new mothers must not eat so much because they have so many benefits. The more they think, the better.

Because drinking too much brown sugar water will not only damage the teeth of new mothers, but also the brown sugar. If new mothers drink too much brown sugar in summer, they will accelerate sweating and make the body weaker and even heatstroke.

Besides,

Should be boiled after drinking, do not use boiling water to use, because brown sugar in storage, pportation and other processes, it is easy to produce bacteria, may cause diseases.

The new mother's function of spleen and stomach has not yet fully recovered. Too cold food will damage the spleen and stomach and affect digestion, and cold raw materials can easily cause congestion and retention, which can cause new mothers' abdominal pain, postpartum lochia and so on.

In addition, new mothers should not eat leftovers with long storage time as far as possible.

New mothers are also advised not to eat foods that are likely to cause allergies, such as seafood. Otherwise, they may cause allergies or bacterial infections, which will directly affect the health of babies who receive breast milk.

However, fresh fruits are not included in the taboo.

Fruit has the function of promoting appetite, helping digestion and excretion, and not having to eat because it is too cold.

Moreover, the fruits normally placed indoors are not cool enough to stimulate the digestive organs of new mothers and affect their health.

6, avoid drinking lots of boiled water.

In general, new mothers usually have edema at the end of pregnancy.

It is the golden age of physical recovery. During this period, all the water accumulated by the body should be discharged as much as possible. If you drink a lot of water, it will not be good for your body to recover.

If cesarean section mothers may need to take some medicine, they still need to drink the right amount of water, but do not drink plenty of water at a time.

7, avoid sour and salty food.

Acidic salty food is easy to accumulate water, and affect the body's moisture removal. In addition, sodium ions in salty food are more likely to increase the blood consistency and allow the metabolism to be affected, causing blood circulation to slow down.

New mothers are advised to avoid salty foods during confinement.

Some new mothers quickly lose weight and drink vinegar to lose weight.

In fact, this is not good.

Because new mothers are weak in all parts of the body, they need a recovery process. During this period, new mothers are vulnerable to injury. Acidic foods can damage teeth and leave new mothers with pain left behind.

Vinegar contains about 3%~4% acetic acid. If used as condiment only, the contact time with tooth is very short. It will not cause any adverse effects in the body, it can also promote appetite.

Therefore, vinegar as condiment to eat, there is no need to taboo.

Salty food has the function of returning milk. Today, when breastfeeding is advocated, the taste of new mothers should be lighter.

8, avoid eating barley and its products.

Barley and its products, such as barley malt, malt milk, maltose and other foods have the effect of lactation, so the new mothers who are still in lactation period should avoid eating.

A lot of blood loss, sweating and interstitial fluid also enter the blood circulation, so the body fluid is obviously insufficient, and hot, spicy, hot food will hurt the fluid and make the new mother get angry, mouth sores, constipation or hemorrhoids, and increase the internal heat of the baby through milk.

Therefore, new mothers avoid leek, onion, garlic, pepper, pepper, fennel, wine, etc.

10, avoid greasy food.

Since the new mothers are weak in gastrointestinal dilatation and peristalsis, too much oily food such as fat, leaf fat and peanuts should be eaten as little as possible so as not to cause indigestion.

In the same way, fried foods are also hard to digest, and new mothers should not eat more.

Moreover, the nutrition of fried foods has lost a lot in the process of frying, which is worse than that of pasta and other foods. Eating more does not increase the nutrition of new mothers, but it increases the burden of the stomach and intestines.

The new mothers diet should be light, especially in the postnatal 5~7 days. They should be gruel, soft rice, egg soup, vegetables and so on, and don't eat too much greasy food, such as chicken, pig hoof and so on.

5 days after delivery, if the digestive function of the stomach is normal, the fish, meat, chicken, pig's hoof, pork ribs and other foods can be added.

Daily 4~6 meal, but not to be overeaten or too greasy.

11, avoid eating old hen.

Traditional Chinese new mothers eat old hens to feed their children, so most new mothers first drink chicken soup after giving birth.

It's not that we can't eat, but we'd better eat it a few days later.

Because hens wait for hair, they tend to gain weight after eating.

12, avoid drugs

Postpartum new mothers have more uterine bleeding, and generally need to use some uterine contraction drugs, but the new mothers who need lactation should not use ergot preparations. Because ergot preparations inhibit the secretion of prolactin, resulting in the effect of milk returning, and it also has a strong pressor effect. Therefore, new mothers with high blood pressure should also be banned.

13, avoid bathing and not combing your hair.

Postpartum new mothers sweat glands are very active, easy to sweat a lot, breast swelling and milk, the lower body also has lochia, the whole body is sticky, a few kinds of smell mixed together, should be more hygienic than usual.

After delivery, you can wash your feet and wash your feet as usual.

Timely bathing can increase the circulation of the whole body, speed up the metabolism, maintain the pores of sweat glands, and facilitate the excretion of the metabolites in the body through sweat.

It can also regulate vegetative nerve, restore physical strength, relieve muscle and nerve fatigue.

General postnatal 1 weeks can wipe bath, after 1 months can shower, do not wash bath in bathtub, so as not to bathe the dirty water into the genital tract and cause infection.

The room temperature should be maintained at 34 - 36 degrees, and the water temperature will be around 45 degrees Celsius.

Dry quickly after bathing, wear good clothes and prevent cold.

Some new mothers do not comb their hair after a period of postpartum, for fear of postpartum headache and postpartum alopecia.

Combing hair is not only the need for beauty, but also stimulating the scalp by wooden comb, it can also promote the blood circulation of the local skin to meet the nutrients needed for hair growth, and prevent hair loss, early whiteness, hair breakage and bifurcation.

Postnatal combs are good for no harm.

But remember to dry your hair quickly after taking a bath or shampoo, and don't catch cold.

14, avoid brushing your teeth.

New mothers don't brush their teeth in confinement.

In the first few days after delivery, in order to supplement nutrition and promote physical recovery, the new mothers are often fed with high sugar, high protein and high-fat diet, up to 6~7 meals a day, and a large amount of food residue is left in the mouth and teeth. Under the action of bacteria, the food is fermented into acidic substances, which corrode the teeth, causing the incidence of dental caries, periodontitis, stomatitis and so on, and increase the incidence of rheumatic fever, nephritis, heart disease and so on.

15, avoid blowing, avoid going out

A new mother's weak body may cause a cold. Postpartum new mother has loose bones and bones. If the cold wind is blown to the bone and may be sore and sore later, it is suggested that mothers should wear long clothes and trousers during their confinement, and if the floor is cold, when they get out of bed, it is best to add a pair of socks. If it is summer, choose thin long sleeved clothes.

If it is stuffy in summer, fans can be blown to the wall to make indoor air flow.

As long as the cold wind does not blow directly, indoor air should be maintained properly.

In the confinement of the month, the new mother with poor resistance still had better not go out, so as not to catch a cold.

16, avoid reading and watching TV for a long time.

Every organ of a new mother can be said to be at a vulnerable stage. The old man often says that she can't watch TV or shed tears. In fact, she hopes that the new mother will have more rest for her eyes, so as not to cause overtired eyes, affect future vision or make her eyes easy to dry and astringent.

But in the information society today, it seems unlikely that new mothers will not read or watch TV. But new mothers really need to pay attention to eye hygiene. If their eyes are dry and uncomfortable, they may also lead to headaches.

Usually, if your eyes are uncomfortable or tired, you can press your eyes around your fingers or your hands to rub each other's heat, and then apply your eyes lightly.

17, avoid fatigue.

This "sitting" word is very experienced. The old medical technique is backward. In the past, new mothers may produce perineal lacerations after birth, and the best way to recover is to have enough legs to rest.

Modern doctors will also cut the perineum for the new mothers, and then stitch them. So the new mothers should be "sitting on the moon". Although they do not mean that they are completely lying in bed, they should rest as much as possible, and do not climb stairs.

It is impossible for a new mother to not have a cute baby. It is suggested that mother try not to hold the same posture for a long time to hold a small baby. If you need lactation, you can use a bed posture or a cushion on the back and do not use waist force to support it, so as not to have a sore back pain later.

18, avoid sex.

The reproductive organs of new mothers will recover at least 8 weeks after birth, and new mothers with complications need more rest.

If there is premature sexual activity, inflammation, uterine bleeding and perineal tear are prone to occur.

Therefore, we must wait until the lochia is thoroughly clean, the postnatal examination is normal, and the postpartum period is more than 2 months.
