After giving birth, women's uterus will suffer significant trauma and take a long time to recover, and the decision on the recovery time depends on whether the mother's maintenance methods are appropriate. This includes postpartum sleeping posture and other care, so what posture is beneficial for uterine recovery?
Women should promptly excrete urine after giving birth. When they feel the urge to urinate, they should try to do so as soon as possible and avoid excessively inflating the bladder, which is not conducive to the recovery of the uterus. After 6 to 8 hours postpartum, the mother should sit up promptly after a slight recovery of physical strength, which can facilitate the recovery of the uterus and the discharge of lochia.
On the second day, one should get out of bed and move around as early as possible according to their physical condition. During the postpartum period, women should avoid prolonged lying down. If the uterus has already tilted backwards, they should promptly correct it with the help of a doctor by doing knee chest lying down.
It takes about eight weeks for a woman's uterus to recover to its pre pregnancy state after giving birth. During this period, in addition to insisting on breastfeeding, special attention should also be paid to the hygiene of the external genitalia.
Massaging the uterine floor can stimulate the contraction of uterine muscles and accelerate the recovery time. In addition, you can consume more foods that can help with uterine recovery, including eggs, brown sugar, lychee, chicken, milk, vegetables and fruits.
