Add a yellow calendar at home.

I have to say that there are many ways for the older generation to do things, such as building houses, weddings and funerals, and nothing can be messed up.

This shows how rich the connotation of Chinese traditional culture is.

Of course, with the passage of time, many of them are out of date.

For example, the proverb "Blessed people are born in the Spring and Autumn Period, and Xia Dongsheng is not blessed" is a hypothetical judgment on numerology and fortune according to the birth season.

Literally, the meaning is very simple, which means that people born in the Spring and Autumn Period are blessed by nature and will be cared for by heaven. What about people born in summer and winter? Born at an untimely time, the fate is bumpy and there are many hardships.

So, why do you say that? What is the basis?

I think this is mainly related to the background of life at that time.

In the past, the life of ordinary families was mostly difficult, lacking clothes and food, and the living conditions were very simple. However, maternal production is the top priority of family import, so the corresponding preparation work naturally can't be ignored, and a little carelessness may affect the safety of mother and baby.

According to common sense, when to be born all the year round is really not a personal decision. From conception to birth in October, everything should go with the flow, as long as it is smooth and healthy, it is a greater wish.

However, due to the limitations of past life and conditions, this ratio is very high. To some extent, the suitability of the natural environment during production plays a vital role in the safety of mothers and babies.

Spring, summer, autumn and winter alternate between cold and summer, in which the climate in spring and autumn is warm, and there is neither heat in summer nor cold in winter, so the human body is more comfortable. If you are confined during this period, both the mother and the newborn will suffer too much.

It would be much more trouble if Xia Dong was confined to the closed area within two seasons. The extremely cold and hot weather makes people uneasy, and it is difficult to find appropriate measures to deal with it.

At that time, there was no refrigeration and heating equipment. Put at most one carbon brazier for heating in winter, and the heat energy is extremely limited, which is undoubtedly a severe test for weak mothers and babies.

What if it is summer? Summer vacation is also very helpless. Mothers and newborns can't see the wind and can't take a bath for a month. Under the unbearable high temperature, wound infection and inflammation are easy to occur, and the prevalence rate of newborns increases.

Although lying-in rest is the main way for lying-in women and newborns during confinement, they can't stay in bed all day, move around properly and bathe in the sunshine, which is very beneficial to the physical recovery of women and the growth of newborns.

However, sunny summer and cold winter are not suitable for outdoor activities, especially for lying-in women and newborns. Their resistance is weak and they can't resist the invasion of cold at all, and they are prone to colds, coughs, fever and other diseases.

Moreover, there were not many kinds of maternal and child products at that time, and changing and washing diapers every day was a heavy task.

Think about it, it is not easy to change dozens of diapers all day and dry them as soon as possible in cold winter.

What's more, in addition to the requirements of living environment, pregnant women and newborns should have rich and nutritious food? Charging is also key.

As we all know, the puerpera is seriously deficient in qi and blood after delivery. If nutrition can't keep up, it will not only affect postpartum recovery, but also the most worrying thing is insufficient breast milk. Newborn feeding is a big problem. After all, breast milk is a better choice for the healthy growth of the baby.

During the autumn harvest season, various crops are returned to the warehouse one after another, and a large number of fruits and vegetables are also listed. Even poor families can eat a few full meals, which can basically ensure the nutritional needs of pregnant women.

In this way, the maternal nutrition is guaranteed, the body recovers quickly, the blood is full, the quality is good, and the newborn is naturally easy to feed.

To sum up, I think the phrase "spring and autumn are blessed, but summer is not blessed" is quite reasonable from the perspective of being beneficial to the health of mother and baby.

However, for today, where life and conditions are complete, it has no practical significance, because the current month will be taken care of in any season.

The above is about the increase of the calendar in 2022, and it is about maternal sharing. I hope this will help everyone after reading the zodiac sign that was pregnant in 2022!
