As the hardships of being pregnant in October gradually fade away, mothers will experience fatigue after giving birth. Many mothers are confinement for the first time, have little experience, and are relatively unfamiliar with postpartum care. So, today I will talk to you about how to take good care of personal hygiene after giving birth.

1. After production, a large amount of lochia will be eliminated, so it is necessary to use pure cotton with good absorption capacity and breathable or antibacterial sanitary napkins or nursing pads. At the same time need to wear soft and comfortable breathable cotton underwear.

2. The room should be ventilated frequently, but the wind should not blow directly on the mother. The indoor temperature should not be too high, but it should not be too high or too low.

3. The amount of perspiration is large after childbirth, and once the clothes are wet, they should be changed immediately. You can wash your hair and take a shower, but don't catch a cold.

4. Eating more frequently during the confinement period, if you do not brush your teeth, it is easy for bacteria in the oral cavity to multiply and oral diseases occur. Mothers should brush their teeth every day, using a soft-bristled toothbrush gently. After every meal, rinse your mouth with warm water.

5. Before breastfeeding, use warm water to clean the nipple, avoid using soap and detergent, so as not to remove the natural film that protects the nipple and areola skin, causing chapped nipples and affecting breastfeeding.

6. Pay attention to the condition of urination. Women who give birth naturally can urinate 4 hours after delivery. A small number of puerperae have difficulty urinating and have urinary retention, which may be related to the long-term pressure on the bladder and the pain reflex of the perineum.
