What are the old traditions that don't have to be followed when a woman gives birth to a child?

According to traditional Chinese custom, a woman needs to have a menstrual period after giving birth to a child. Although some people think it is not necessary, many times those who do not have menstruation are prone to fall some diseases, which is not worth the loss.

The mothers who have had the experience of sitting in the moonlight know very well that during the period of the month, this can not be done, that can not be done, and feel that there are a lot of constraints, and feel very difficult. But in fact, there are some really unnecessary, but the existence of the misunderstanding.

postpartum sitting on the moon, these things are not necessary? rigid compliance? , don't be silly bound again.

1, can not be blown by the wind

Many mothers in the menstrual period, according to the old man of the family, can not be blown by the wind, if where the wind blew, it may be painful in the future, or get rheumatism. Therefore, during the period of sitting on the moon, not only tightly closed doors and windows, some in the bed pulling the curtain, some will even head with a moon hat, legs are also bound, can be said to be fully armed, absolutely do not give the wind a chance.

But this is actually quite unnecessary. During the postpartum period, the maternal body is relatively weak, if the wind has been blowing, may indeed make the body uncomfortable, but it does not have to be so covered tightly.

When the body is so heavily armed, the mother will feel uncomfortable, especially in the summer, when the weather is already hot, so it will be even more difficult. And if you are so heavily armed in the summer, it can also easily lead to puerperal fever, and the consequences will be even more serious.

With windows and doors closed all the time, there is no air circulation in the room, and over a long period of time, the air will become dirty, which is also not good for the respiratory system of the mother and child.

So, during the monthly period, although the mother should be careful not to be too windblown, but occasionally when the weather is suitable, appropriate windows can still be opened to ventilate.

2, can not be cleaned

During the period of the month, the old man will often mention the point that you can not wash your hair and take a bath, or easy to catch a cold, to be out of the month before you can.

For the average person, to a month without washing hair and bathing, itself is very painful, and the mother in labor during the birth of a large number of sweat, coupled with the discharge and secretion of milk, the body itself is more prone to dirty, but also a month so long time can not wash their hair and bathing, not to mention how difficult.

In fact, although you can't wash your hair immediately after giving birth, it's still possible to wash it briefly after a few days. A few days after the birth, you can do a simple wipe, after ten days, you can wash your hair. However, when cleaning should pay attention to the water temperature and other put horses, to avoid catching a cold.

3, can not eat salt

During the menstrual period, many old people to maternal cooking completely without salt. This is not right, during the monthly period if you eat more salt, may increase the burden on the kidneys, resulting in edema, so doctors recommend less salt.

But eating less is not not eating, during the birth of a large amount of sweat, the urgent need to replenish the salt, if you do not eat salt, it will lead to an imbalance of sodium and potassium in the body, is not good for the body. And the maternal body needs to recover, but also the secretion of milk, need to supplement a lot of nutrients, if you have been eating unsalted food, it will affect the maternal appetite, can not eat, can not replenish the nutrients in a timely manner, it is even worse for the body.

4, eat a lot of eggs

Eggs have a high nutritional value, and easily absorbed and digested, is a very important food to supplement the nutrition after delivery. Some old people will be in the monthly period, every day to cook a lot of eggs, some times even a day to reach a dozen. But in fact, there is no need to do so, even if you eat so many eggs, the nutrients inside can not be fully absorbed, but may also affect the absorption of other foods in the nutrients.

During the month, you should eat some eggs every day to supplement your diet, but at the same time, you should also pay attention to the diversity of food to ensure that you can replenish the various nutrients needed in the maternal body.

Sitting in the postnatal period is conducive to the recovery of the maternal body, but for the customs that have been handed down to us, we should get rid of the dregs and take the essence, which is more favorable to the maternal body.
