Cold winter is absolutely a very painful thing for the mother who sits on the moon. The mother who sits on the moon has always been a matter of great concern. The quality of postpartum care directly affects the health of the new mother, so how to sit on the moon in winter?
Warm water for washing
Because sitting on the moon is best to avoid cold water, especially in winter. So when washing in winter, the new mother should use warm water after childbirth.
Don't make the quilt too thick
Many people think that when sitting on the moon in winter, the quilt to be covered should be thicker so as to avoid getting cold and leaving the disease. But what Xiaobian should say is that even in the cold winter, the quilt should not be too thick, but also thinner than in the late pregnancy, so as to avoid puerperal fever. In addition, the quilt that gives puerpera to cover had better be to want to choose cotton qualitative or it is hemp qualitative wait for the product that compares gentleness and breathability.
Avoid cold and spicy
Postpartum deficiency more blood stasis, should fast raw cold, cold products. Raw and cold often hurt the stomach, cold is hemagglutination, lochia is not lower, will cause postpartum abdominal pain, body pain and many other diseases. Postpartum blood loss hurt Jin, more yin deficiency internal heat, so onion, ginger, garlic, pepper and other spicy hot food should be avoided. If you eat spicy food, it is not only easy to cause constipation, hemorrhoids, etc., but also may affect the gastrointestinal function of infants through milk.
Wash fruit with warm water
Fruit is rich in nutritional value, which can well supplement the nutrition needed by the parturient during the term of confinement. But some fruits are cold in winter, so many people will think that sitting on the moon in winter is not suitable for eating those fruits, such as apples, pears, etc. However, in fact, the parturient who sits on the moon in winter also eats fruit, but not when it is too cold. It's better to wash it with warm boiled water before eating.
Control temperature and humidity
In the cold winter, postpartum new mothers also need to pay attention to sitting on the moon. It is better to control the indoor temperature of pregnant women to 20 ~ 25 ℃. It's better not to let the temperature be too high or too low, otherwise it will affect the health of new mothers and babies after childbirth. For example, if the temperature is too high, it will lead to puerperal fever for new mothers after childbirth, and if the temperature is too low, it will make babies susceptible to disease.
In addition, there will be new mothers after childbirth who will ask, is there heating in the north but not in the south? In fact, the new mothers after childbirth in the South can also be replaced by air conditioning or small sun. However, it should be noted that whether heating or air conditioning is on, it is appropriate to control the indoor humidity at 55% ~ 65%. Otherwise, too dry indoor, it will also affect the health of new mothers and babies.
Don't mend by yourself
Experts believe that the normal body of the maternal do not need medicine, can be aimed at symptoms with some Chinese medicine, with diet conditioning. In case of lack of milk, you can use wangbuliu, Tongcao, pig's hoof, Platycodon, etc. to pass menstruation and lower milk; in case of postpartum abdominal pain and constipation, you can add angelica, peach kernel, walnut kernel, yellow wine to activate blood circulation and remove stasis, moisten intestines and relieve constipation.
Keep your clothes warm
It's cold in winter. The mother who breast feeds should be careful of the chest and abdomen, and choose the breast-feeding bra. Baby night feeding, wearing and taking off clothes do not think trouble, catch cold easily make shoulder joint cold. Some mothers have shoulder joint pain before they have finished sitting for a month. They can't even lift their arms.
At the beginning of the new mother, often tired sweat, arm acid, neck stiffness, which is often due to the incorrect feeding posture. The right feeding posture is "three pastes": chest pastes, abdomen pastes, mandible pastes breast. The mother holds the baby's buttocks with her hands, the elbow of her mother holds the baby's head and neck, and the baby's upper body lies on the mother's forearm, which is the most comfortable position for the baby to eat milk.
Do not touch cold water
In winter, it is better to bathe in the postpartum one week. Winter bath should pay attention to cold. The temperature of the bathroom should be 20-22 ℃, and the water temperature should be about 37 ℃ or slightly hot. The bathroom should not be too closed, and the bath time should not be too long, and 5-10 minutes is appropriate. Wash to avoid sweating, because sweating too much prone to dizziness, nausea, vomiting and so on. Do not touch cold water to avoid abdominal pain, irregular menstruation and body pain.
After bathing, blow dry your hair with a hot air blower in time, dry the water on your body as soon as possible, put on the clothes to keep cool in time, and then walk out of the bathroom to avoid catching cold or being blown by the wind. After bathing in the evening, don't go to bed immediately, drink a cup of hot water, and then go to sleep after your body is dry.
According to the traditional method, the puerpera can also choose Fangfeng Shengjiang formula in winter bath, i.e. 50g Fangfeng, 50g ginger, smash, wash with water, fry a large pot of water, filter the dregs of medicine, wash the body and hair with water, or directly use the boiled water of ginger slices to wash the bath.

Proper exercise
The new mother is weak and lack of Qi and blood. All kinds of organs should be restored to their original positions. The uterus should be free of lochia. Therefore, proper exercise is needed after childbirth. Activities can make people's Qi and blood flow, so that the five Zang Fu organs function vigorously. Lying in bed for too long will lead to burnout and fatigue, which is not conducive to the discharge of congestion.
If congestion stagnates in the uterus for a long time, there may be lochia, too much lochia or postpartum abdominal pain, which may cause abdominal mass. Therefore, active 'sitting for a month' is not to stay in bed for one month, but to combine bed rest with appropriate exercise.
The more day you give birth, you can turn over in bed, rest alternately in semi sitting position and horizontal position. Later, you can walk around the bed and room, and practice post natal gymnastics, so as to recover your body shape as soon as possible, and also reduce constipation. In the month, the new mother should sleep for 10 hours every day, which is helpful for milk secretion.
Observe the amount of lochia
There are many vaginal secretions after childbirth. But as time goes on, the amount of lochia will decrease. The color should change from bright red to pink, then yellow white. Detailed examination of lochia is a must for caesarean delivery women. If there is any abnormality in lochia, they should be treated immediately.
Avoid coffee and alcohol
You should reduce or avoid several harmful substances, such as caffeine, alcohol and nicotine, both during your confinement and in the days after breastfeeding.
Caffeine and alcohol get into your milk through the blood, so don't overdo it. Coffee, tea and cola all contain caffeine. Although one or two of these drinks is unlikely to have much impact on your or your baby's health, more than that may make you feel irritable, neurotic, or restless and sleepless at the same time. If you have the habit of drinking coffee, it is recommended that you control yourself for your baby, drink less and try to drink decaffeinated coffee as much as possible.
Rooms should be ventilated and people should be windproof
For rooms with mothers and babies, it is necessary to pay attention to ventilation and keep the indoor air fresh, so that mothers and babies will be healthier. Therefore, Xiaobian suggests that ventilation and ventilation should be carried out 1-2 times a day for 20-30 minutes each time. However, when ventilation, we should transfer the new mother and baby to another room, or cover the quilt, and try not to let the mother and baby be directly blown by the wind.
