Harm of traditional confinement

During confinement, these three hazards should not be taken seriously. Can mom get out of bed or not? After confinement, can my mother go to other places to do themed activities? The doctor said: No matter whether the parturient is delivered naturally or delivered by caesarean section, it is necessary to do moderate activities in the second month instead of staying in bed for a long time, which may be very unfavorable for physical recovery.

Moderate theme activities after delivery can not only promote the outflow of postpartum lochia in the body, accelerate uterine contraction, but also accelerate the strength repair of abdominal muscles and pelvic cavity repair, which is of great benefit to mothers. Most importantly, after giving birth to a child, moderate exercise is conducive to eliminating negative emotions, promoting appetite, and then promoting the mother's milk secretion, so that the baby can get enough food.

The danger of not getting out of bed after delivery increases the risk of uterine prolapse.

Postpartum mothers' bladder support becomes weak, and their sensitivity to intravesical pressure decreases, which is easy to cause urinary retention. If you stay in bed for a long time, the overflowing bladder will squeeze the uterus backwards. In addition, the uterus has not recovered. When the working pressure of abdominal cavity increases, such as sneezing or laughing, the uterus will descend to the vertical position along the vagina.

Causing serious constipation problems

After delivery, the functions of the mother's body have not been completely restored, especially the function of intestinal peristalsis is reduced, and all the foods eaten during confinement are highly nutritious, which makes it easy for the mother to have indigestion. If you stay in bed for a long time, it may cause serious constipation.

Edema often appears in the legs.

During confinement, blood night in the mother's body is still in hypercoagulable state. If she stays in bed for a long time, blood night will easily coagulate in the veins of lower limbs, and eventually form deep venous thrombosis, causing edema and pain in her legs and feet, which will be life-threatening in severe cases.

Postpartum confinement doesn't really make mother stay in bed and stay still. But on the premise of ensuring adequate rest, she can do more physical exercise to make her body recover faster and stronger. So, mothers should stop listening to such rumors.
