The summer is hot, and giving birth and confinement in the summer are both difficult things for the mother and her family. Some old customs say that during the confinement period, you should not take a bath, you cannot open the windows for ventilation, and you should cover yourself up to keep the mother and baby healthy... Is this really true? Let’s find out more with the editor! The month to which the leap month is added is determined according to the rules of the lunar calendar, and is mainly based on the correspondence with the 24 solar terms in the lunar calendar. This year, the leap month of April has arrived. Welcome everyone to visit Shuimoxiansheng.com’s special topic on leap April 2020 to learn more!The biggest misunderstanding: Can you wash your hair and take a bath during confinement?In the minds of the older generation, mothers are not allowed to wash their hair or take a bath, or even brush their teeth, during the confinement period.Not only do these taboos have no scientific basis, they may also cause harm to mothers. After giving birth, you need to pay more attention to personal hygiene. The blood volume of pregnant women will increase greatly during pregnancy, and after delivery, they need to sweat a lot to excrete the fluid retained in the body. Therefore, you will sweat a lot during the confinement period, especially when sleeping. At the same time, the mother's body's ability to resist disease will decrease after childbirth, and the perineum and breasts will be more susceptible to infection. Therefore, mothers in confinement should clean frequently, otherwise it will not only produce odor, but also affect the body's recovery and reduce the success rate of breastfeeding. What should you do during the dog days of summer?1. Indoor temperature <br /> The indoor temperature should be kept at around 26 degrees, and the humidity should be kept at around 55%.In addition, be careful to avoid keeping doors and windows closed, and open windows frequently to ventilate and keep the indoor air fresh. In order to avoid catching a cold during ventilation, the new mother should be moved to another room during ventilation, or the windows of each room can be opened for ventilation when she goes out to bask in the sun. 2. Make good use of cooling tools <br /> When the weather is hot, you can use air conditioners, fans or fans. Don't believe those who say you can't use air conditioners or fans. This is unscientific. It is so hot in the dog days of summer, how can we survive without air conditioning or fans? Mothers should make sure they feel comfortable. However, when using the air conditioner or fan, avoid blowing it directly on the new mother, and the air conditioner filter should be rinsed frequently to prevent bacterial growth. 3. Daily care <br /> During the confinement period, brushing teeth, washing hair and taking a bath are also important. Take a shower to keep your body clean. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva when showering. Do not wash the vulva or take a bath in a tub, as this can easily cause infection. Dry yourself dry after showering to avoid catching a cold. During the confinement period, you should pay special attention to protecting your teeth. Rinse your mouth after meals and brush your teeth before going to bed. If you feel weak, you can also take a sponge bath. 4. Ensure sleep <br /> Sleep is very important for new mothers who are confined during the dog days of summer. They should ensure 8-10 hours of sleep per day during the confinement period. Even if you cannot sleep well at night because your baby is feeding or crying, you should take advantage of the time to rest during the day when your baby is sleeping. If it is too hot to sleep, you can use a straw mat, but not a mahjong mat. 5. Refuse visits <br /> During the postpartum confinement period, new mothers need time to adapt to their new identity, and their bodies are weak, so they should refuse visits from relatives and friends. This can also prevent indoor air pollution caused by large crowds of people from bringing in bacteria or viruses, threatening the health of mother and baby. You can receive blessings by phone or Internet, or you can post photos of your baby on your Moments to let everyone share your happiness. 6. Avoid sexual intercourse <br /> During the confinement period, avoid intimate behavior. The couple should wait until the wife's body fully recovers before resuming sexual life. If they resume sexual life too early, since the wound of the uterus has not yet recovered, it is easy to cause puerperal infection, resulting in chronic pelvic inflammatory disease and other adverse symptoms. |
