What are the taboos of confinement? Can sitting still really change your physique?
It's hard to say whether you can change your constitution. If you don't do it well, you will have a big problem, and it will always be with you all your life.
First of all, let me talk about the custom of confinement in the past. Before confinement, people basically didn't take a bath, wash their hair, blow their hair, eat greasy food, pungent food or salt during confinement, which was basically millet porridge, eggs, brown sugar water, fried dough sticks and so on. Personally, I think the main reason is the limited materials and conditions at that time. I didn't want to eat it, but I didn't have to. The hygiene of food and drinks from a good family will be much better.
Now that living conditions are better, people pay more attention to scientific confinement, but some ancient customs are not unreasonable.
1, the conditions at home are good now, and the doors and windows are airtight. As long as there is no wind and the temperature is around 25 degrees, you can take a shower and wash your hair and change your close-fitting clothes frequently. Because the lying-in woman is weak in the second month, she should stay comfortable and be careful not to catch cold. Open the window for ventilation every day (when opening the window for ventilation, the parturient should move to other rooms, and it is best to avoid direct wind blowing). Don't be careless, the mother's bones are not closed after giving birth, and it is easy to fall down by the wind.
When my mother gave birth to my brother, it was windy. My brother was born in May, and it is already very warm. When it was hot, my mother exposed one leg. At that time, the sealing conditions of doors and windows at home were not good, and it blew. Later, half of me felt cold. Another friend felt hot after confinement, so he leaned against the wall for a while, and then his back was a little cold and he felt cold.
2, you can't sit for a long time during the month, you can stay in bed, it is best to stay in bed for about a week before getting out of bed, that is, postpartum recovery exercise is also the most suitable for a week after delivery. The reason is that the cervix has just been produced, and the uterus and various organs of the body have not returned to their original positions. At this time, if you sit for too long, it will easily lead to cervical prolapse, sphincter recovery, and incontinence when you are old.
3, there is basically no taboo to eat, except for irritating, milk-friendly foods and seasonings, others can be eaten, and eggs do not need to eat too much. You can mix it in a balanced way every day, eat less salt and have to eat it, because salt mediates the acid-base balance in the body.
Therefore, women should protect themselves and take care of themselves, especially during confinement. They can't always look at foreign countries and feed them at the same time. Different soil and water make different people's physique. For the sake of one's own health, it is essential to combine the experience of the older generation with science and keep healthy.
The above is just a personal opinion, let's discuss it with you!
Confinement is a characteristic of China. Confinement is also the quintessence of China. Foreigners have never said that. They are still better than us in China without confinement, and no one has the so-called "moon disease". What's more, they don't have confinement, and they have to break many taboos of confinement.
Some time ago, a expectant mother I knew put forward some requirements for confinement, which I believe will make many mother-in-law stunned. The requirements of expectant mothers include: give me ice water after giving birth, and I will take a shower immediately. Some young expectant mothers don't want to have a confinement because they hold the same view.
There used to be a reason for confinement. We should treat confinement with a correct view of science and history. "What exists is reasonable."
In the past, it was reasonable for China people to have confinement. Everyone should know that being a daughter-in-law is very hard.
There are a dozen to dozens of people in a big family. The clothes of the whole family need to be mended and washed by the daughter-in-law, the meals of the whole family need to be cooked by the daughter-in-law, the children need to be taken care of by the daughter-in-law, and there are many other housework that the daughter-in-law needs to do. At that time, there were no washing machines, air conditioners, hot baths and hair dryers. At that time, there were no contraceptive measures, children were born one after another, poor nutritional conditions, anemia, calcium deficiency and other malnutrition diseases were widespread. Therefore, in the past, during confinement, it was necessary to supplement nutrition, eat an old hen a day, replenish blood, and avoid taking a bath and washing your hair. People were afraid of catching cold, taking more rest and less activities, and should not eat cold food.
Daughter-in-law usually works very hard, and can rest for a month when she finally gives birth to a child, so she can have the opportunity to supplement her nutrition. It is really necessary.
Now the situation is completely different. Whose daughter-in-law will work as hard as before?
Therefore, it is absolutely unreasonable to insist that you can't brush your teeth (for fear of calcium deficiency, brushing your teeth will lose your teeth), wash your hair, take a shower, blow your hair (for fear of cold), make up for it (for fear of malnutrition) and stay indoors (for fear of fatigue making your baby sick).
Scientific confinement is different from tradition in the following aspects: 1. Pay attention to hygiene. Bathing, shampooing and brushing your teeth are the most basic hygiene habits, and you can't stop during the month. Good hygiene habits can prevent infectious diseases. Window ventilation is also to increase the cleanliness of indoor air.
2. Pursuing comfort. Confinement is not confinement, and childbirth during pregnancy is very hard, of course it should be comfortable. Comfort includes suitable indoor temperature and comfortable wearing.
3. A reasonable and balanced diet. Vegetables and vegetables, lean and thin, with fruits and vegetables, not too light. Energy intake should be in the middle and late pregnancy, so there is no need to eat too many eggs. There are not many taboos in diet.
4. Exercise. Rest on the day after delivery, gradually increase the amount of exercise after 24 hours after delivery, and don't stay in bed completely to prevent thrombosis. One week after delivery, the wound healed and the activity was unrestricted. You can do some fitness exercises two weeks after delivery to promote the recovery of your body.
Scientific confinement is not without any taboos, mainly in the following aspects: 1. Avoid drinking. In many places, it is traditional to milk with rice wine, fermented grains and fermented grains during confinement. Alcohol can enter milk through blood, which affects the health of babies. However, infants have lower tolerance to alcohol because their liver enzyme secretion is different from that of adults, and their weight is lower. A small amount of alcohol will damage the baby's nervous system.
Not only during the second month, but also during the whole lactation period.
2. No sex life. Postpartum perineum has a wound, placental exfoliation has a wound, and blood vessels are open, which is very easy to be infected. Sexual behavior will increase the chance of infection and affect wound healing. It is generally recommended that sexual life can be resumed after the puerperium.
3. Avoid drugs. Drugs will be secreted into the milk through the breast. Therefore, there is no special need not to take medicine indiscriminately, including health care products and Chinese patent medicines. If you are sick, you need to tell your doctor and choose drugs that have no effect on fetal health. Otherwise, breastfeeding needs to be suspended.
The custom of confinement in China can be traced back to the Western Han Dynasty, with a history of more than 2,000 years. In the face of the old traditions left by our ancestors, many people hold the attitude of "preferring to believe what they have". However, in the view of modern medicine, the disadvantages of these old customs are becoming more and more obvious, and tragedies caused by wrong ideas occur from time to time. Therefore, postpartum mothers need scientific confinement.
So, what is confinement? The traditional "confinement" has strict regulations on dress, diet and daily activities, such as absolute warmth, no window opening, no air conditioning, no bathing and no shampoo, even if it is hot, it should be covered tightly; Can't get out of bed and walk around; Drink nourishing soup every day instead of salt and vinegar. Therefore, people often use "covering the moon, lazy moon, filling the moon and ignoring the moon" to describe the characteristics of the traditional moon. In the past, people lacked medical knowledge and poor living conditions, so many physical discomforts and diseases were generally attributed to "catching a cold." The countermeasure is to prevent people with wounds from being stimulated by wind, water and other external stimuli, so as to reduce the risk of infection and death, which leads to many taboos. It can be said that in the past, confinement was "safe", but in modern society, medical safety is no longer a problem. On the contrary, sticking to the old customs will bring potential hidden dangers to postpartum mothers.
Hello, everyone, I'm mother sunshine.
Confinement is one month after delivery, because one month after delivery is the process of rapid recovery of pregnant women in all aspects. Postpartum pregnant women's physical strength drops obviously, which requires a period of recovery. The function of many organs is a recovery process, including the uterus and cervix. In this process, the gastrointestinal tract is fragile, so don't eat too greasy things, mainly with good digestion, plenty of milk and fresh ingredients. Pregnant women should pay attention to rest and ensure adequate sleep time, so it is best for someone at home to take care of the children and let pregnant women rest.
Confinement is a major event in life. Many people say that confinement is not good and they are sick. So what should you pay attention to when you are confinement? What are the taboos?
Precautions for confinement 1. Avoid squatting for a long time.
Postpartum squatting is not conducive to the recovery of pelvic floor muscles of new mothers, and may also lead to ectopic or prolapsed uterus. Postpartum should avoid squatting for a long time as much as possible, and it is best to walk properly, sitting and standing.
2, pay attention to rest, don't exercise or strenuous exercise.
Rest is the most important thing in confinement. Be sure to rest at home after delivery, pay attention to sleep, don't make yourself too tired, but also be careful not to lie in bed for a month. If physical conditions permit, it is best to walk in the room every day, but it is not advisable to exercise vigorously after delivery. Intense exercise can lead to postpartum pain such as backache in women, and even illness in the next month, which is not conducive to future health.
3. Pay attention to the recovery of the uterus.
Pay attention to the recovery of uterus after delivery and observe the color change of lochia. Under normal circumstances, lochia should turn from red to white, the amount should be gradually reduced, and the smell should be changed from bloody to non-existent. Generally, lochia will be discharged after one month. If lochia is unclean or abnormal, you should see a doctor in time. Remember to go to the hospital for postpartum check-up 6-8 weeks after delivery.
4, nutritious diet, avoid stimulation
Avoid spicy, greasy and other irritating foods during confinement. If you insist on breastfeeding, you should pay more attention to eating light and nutritious food during breastfeeding, which will not only help the secretion of milk, but also help the recovery of women's uterus.
Step 5 stay happy
Postpartum women are mentally fragile due to physiological changes, and with the increase of stress, postpartum depression may occur. Therefore, we must maintain a happy atmosphere at home, especially the husband should be more considerate of his wife and give spiritual and life support.
The dietary taboo for confinement is 1, and it is forbidden to eat more monosodium glutamate.
Generally speaking, it is beneficial and harmless for adults to eat monosodium glutamate. It is not good for lactating mothers to consume excessive monosodium glutamate while eating a high-protein diet. Because sodium glutamate in monosodium glutamate will enter the baby through milk. Excessive sodium glutamate has a serious impact on the baby's development, especially within 12 weeks. It can specifically combine with zinc in the baby's blood to produce glutamic acid that cannot be absorbed by the body, but zinc is excreted with urine, resulting in zinc deficiency in the baby.
2, avoid eating cold food.
After delivery, the body is deficient in qi and blood, so it is necessary to eat more warm food to facilitate the recovery of qi and blood. If you eat cold or cold food after delivery, it will not be conducive to the enrichment of qi and blood, which will easily lead to digestive and absorption dysfunction of the spleen and stomach, and will not be conducive to the discharge of lochia and the removal of congestion.
3, avoid spicy food.
Eating spicy food, such as pepper, is easy to hurt body fluid, consume gas, damage blood, aggravate qi and blood weakness, easily lead to constipation, and it is not good for the baby after entering the milk. And mother's blood is weak after delivery. If she eats spicy food, such as pepper, it will cause sweating, which will not only consume gas, but also hurt body fluid and blood, aggravate postpartum qi and blood weakness, and even cause symptoms. Irritating foods, such as strong tea and coffee alcohol, will affect sleep and gastrointestinal function, and it is not good for your baby.
4, avoid eating raw food.
Postpartum mothers should not eat sour food, such as ebony, lotus seeds, persimmons and pumpkins. , so as not to block blood circulation and is not conducive to lochia discharge.
5, diet should not be tonic
Overnourished women are prone to obesity, leading to many diseases. Maternal obesity can also cause the increase of fat content in milk, which will eventually lead to obesity or diarrhea in infants.
How to do a good job in the next month, keep good health and keep good health is the most concerned issue for every treasure mother.
A woman just gave birth and walked around the door of death. She is weak, of course, she needs scientific conditioning methods.
There are many unreasonable places in the old tradition before, and some of them are reasonable.
When I was in confinement, the internet was not so developed, and I still used the old traditional methods and suffered a lot. Summer confinement, wrapped up, no bathing, no shampoo, no brushing. Don't mention how uncomfortable it is after a month.
I was obedient after washing my mouth, but I could only eat careless and secretly greedy fruit and sit there watching TV for half a day. I found that when I was not old enough, I lost my teeth when I ate sour teeth, and my back ached all day, and my eyes were blurred. I remembered what my mother said to me the next month. If you don't do it well in the second month, it's no use regretting it when you get old. I think these problems now may also be the root cause of the monthly decline!
Ma Bao, which is now pregnant, has good conditions in all aspects, and there are also professional institutions for pregnant women, so there are not as many taboos as before. A scientific and reasonable diet is professionally conditioned according to everyone's physique.
Ma Bao, who is playing, is very happy. If there is anything she doesn't understand, she will know it all when she searches online. Don't be too tired, keep an action for a long time, don't be greedy, keep a happy mood and have a happy month.
In another month's time, the parturient can fully recuperate and return to health!
As we all know, a mother needs confinement after giving birth to a child. Confinement, medically called puerperium, is the time from the mother's delivery to the body's recovery to the pre-pregnancy state.
How long does it take to confinement? A month? In fact, the confinement time should be about 42 days, not 30 days.
The confinement is particularly exquisite, but we should not blindly follow the traditional methods of the older generation, but should combine modern scientific views.
First of all, we must know that confinement is for self-recovery. Energy, nutrition, etc. What the mother consumes in the production process needs to be nursed back to health during this time.
Many people say that confinement can change physical fitness, which is true. During confinement, proper exercise, rest and adequate nutritional supplements can make the uterus recover well and regulate its own qi and blood. Of course, the body can recover well and the physique can be improved.
Don't blow during confinement. Wear trousers, long sleeves and socks. Keep the indoor temperature at 25℃ to 26℃ and the humidity at 50% to 60%.
Just after delivery, stay in bed for more than 30 minutes to recover your strength. When your physical strength is better, extend it to 1-2 hours. After 24 hours of delivery, you can get out of bed for activities, but don't stand, sit, squat or carry heavy objects for a long time, otherwise it will cause diseases such as low back pain, leg pain, knee and ankle pain, and in severe cases, uterine prolapse will occur.
Maintain hygiene during confinement, wash hair and body to avoid bacterial infection and inflammation.
As for the moon meal, heating is the best. At first, eat liquid food with less salt, less monosodium glutamate and less sugar. It should be light and not too greasy. You can eat some ordinary meals and soft food on the second day after delivery.
Doing a good job in the next month can really change your physique.
I used to have a bad stomach, especially eating cold and sour food. I like scrambled eggs with tomatoes, which will block my stomach. Don't touch carbonated drinks or anything. Honestly, it's really annoying. I should pay attention to everything I eat. My health is not very good.
Later, after confinement, I put some ginger in everything at home, and eat less and more meals regularly, which is very nutritious. After confinement, I gradually found that my physique seems to have changed, I slept more soundly, and I won't feel uncomfortable eating anything. Now I'm hot and cold, and I can eat carbonated drinks at will, as long as it's not too much, I seldom feel uncomfortable. Therefore, it is really important to do a good job.
It is not confinement that can change your constitution, but pregnancy that makes you change your constitution!
The constitution of human body is nothing more than some control rules formed by hormones, transmitters and protein. Before you were born, there were some relatively simple rules. After ten or twenty years of birth, all the control rules have been formed. This is your constitution!
And pregnancy, because of the large amount of estrogen and progesterone, makes many of the original rules of the body no longer apply, so we have to adapt and rebuild the rules. This is the physique you applied during pregnancy. It's definitely not easy to change your habits, so it will be very uncomfortable in the early pregnancy and there will be some problems, but gradually you will get used to it and the rules will be re-formulated!
After giving birth to a baby, the balance of the body is destroyed again, so we have to adapt again and form a set of rules!
It's just that this rule has something to do with confinement, but it's definitely not the behavior of not washing your hair or taking a bath, but the material balance in your body: how estrogen is produced, how much estrogen is produced, how protein is supplied, whether trace elements are enough, how to balance the heat in your body, and so on. These are basically related to eating, and of course how to consume. Therefore, if you want to change your physique, you should pay more attention to the intake and consumption of these substances. Everyone's physical quality is different.
This is just a big framework that applies to everyone. Everyone is involved, so it needs careful consideration. Please write privately if you have any ideas!
It's hard to say whether a woman can change her physique by sitting for a month after giving birth, but sitting for a month will really reduce a lot of illness.
The so-called sitting well in the second month means that during the second month, the diet and lifestyle are different from ordinary people and taboo.
As an experienced person, I would like to share with you what I passed down from my mother's generation and my personal experience, hoping to help those in need.
1 diet
In terms of diet, every place has its own customs. My home is in Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou Province. We are Miao people. We Miao women who are confinement are forbidden to eat cold, spicy, sour and hard food.
Rice should be soft, often chicken porridge. Apart from oil, vegetables need a little salt, and other auxiliary condiments are free.
Remember, don't chew chicken bones (hard). In the second month, I thought chicken bones were delicious (married to Chongqing, far from my family, some taboos, my mother forgot to explain. My wife never tells me what to do and what not to do when I am confined. )。
I have a toothache after confinement. Now I often have toothache when the internal fire is heavy.
2 Lifestyle
Keep warm, avoid being blown by the wind, don't blow an electric fan, and don't watch TV (mobile phone). You can't bathe and wash clothes in cold water.
Wear a hat or scarf on your head to prevent your head from getting a headache from the wind.
Wearing trousers, like a headscarf.
Wear socks on your feet, or you will prevent the heel from cracking in winter.
I didn't understand. My daughter was born in July. Chongqing is very hot, so I didn't wear socks. Now in winter, my heel is cracked and painful. You must burn your feet with boiling water every night, and then apply ointment.
It is not advisable to stand for a long time, sit for a long time or squat for a long time. Seats should be soft, not hard benches.
The pain of sitting on a hard bench for a long time.
At that time, during confinement, except cooking and washing clothes for me, my grandmother did it (my grandmother disliked that I gave birth to a daughter and never asked her). Everything I did was to eat and drink Lazar for my daughter.
When I urinated with my daughter in my arms, I squatted for a long time and sat on a hard bench (toilet paper was also placed on the bench, but the toilet paper was hard at that time, and it was hard after sitting for a long time).
After confinement, I have a headache in my hip and a pain in my knee. It's hard to stand up when I squat down.
It is said that the monthly consumption for the next month can be handled well.
I learned my lesson because I went through a confinement. So, in the month when I gave birth to my son, I was jealous, and now there is basically no problem.
3 taboo husband and wife life
When I was young, my mother, my second sister-in-law and I worked in the soil. Mother and second sister-in-law are talking about a family in the village
It is said that Wen Chang's daughter-in-law is ill in bed. Before Wen Chang ran, she ran back to pour water for his daughter-in-law.
However, his wife is ungrateful. Not only did she pour out the medicine, but she also cursed the long article angrily. Long articles dare not go out of the atmosphere.
When mother and second sister-in-law said this, they always said it was not a long article.
I was puzzled and couldn't help asking, "Sister-in-law has served her for so long, why is it still so noisy?"
The mother said earnestly, "While Wen Chang's daughter-in-law was imprisoned, Wen Chang forced her to sleep with his daughter-in-law. His daughter-in-law is very ill now and will leave this world soon. "
Sure enough, less than a month after we talked about Nagano's wife, Nagano's wife left her relatives with resentment.
The rest is just a secret story that can't be made public.
In addition to a long speech, the mother and second sister-in-law also talked about what they knew about many women who died during confinement because they slept with their husbands and wives.
At that time, I was a little girl. My mother and my second sister-in-law told me indirectly that a woman can't live a husband-and-wife life in confinement, otherwise she will get sick and not live long.
I don't know if this kind of thing is recorded in medicine or if there is a scientific theory.
But this common sense has been handed down from generation to generation.
Some things are better to believe than not to believe, and things that should be taboo are better. Don't wait until something goes wrong to regret it. What's the point?
