How to take care of your body after childbirth?

How to take care of your body after miscarriage? I believe everyone knows that you need to take care of your body after giving birth. The same reason applies to taking care of your body after miscarriage, because miscarriage also causes trauma to women's bodies. In order to reduce the harm of miscarriage to the body, it is necessary to take good care of it. So how to take care of your body after miscarriage?

Abortion is something we are most reluctant to face. Not only does it cause the loss of a baby, but it also causes damage to the female body, and the degree of damage is no less than that of normal childbirth. Therefore, whether it is a natural abortion or an artificial abortion, post-abortion recuperation and care are very important for women.

Nursing knowledge 1. Get enough rest during the confinement period

Rest and recuperation after miscarriage are also very important, commonly known as "sitting in confinement". Miscarriage will leave wounds on the endometrium. If you move too early, it is likely to prolong the time of vaginal bleeding, so you must get enough rest after miscarriage. Generally speaking, it is best to rest in bed for the first three days after miscarriage, and then recuperate for two weeks. If you engage in physical labor or physical exercise too early, uterine prolapse is very likely to occur.

Nursing knowledge 2. Pay attention to hygiene and ensure internal and external cleanliness

After a miscarriage, bacteria can easily enter the body due to weakness, so you should pay special attention to personal hygiene. Doing the following can help you recover:

1. Clean the vulva. After abortion, the secretions increase and the vagina becomes a hotbed for bacterial infection and reproduction. Therefore, wash it with warm water 1-2 times a day to keep the vulva clean and hygienic.

2. Change underwear frequently. Keep your underwear clean and sterile, wash and dry your underwear frequently, change your sanitary napkins frequently, and keep your vulva dry and clean.

3. Do not take a sitting bath. Since there is a lot of secretion after abortion, it is best to take a shower. If you take a sitting bath before the bleeding is clean, the dirty water will flow into the vagina, which is more likely to cause infection.

4. Stop having sex. It is best to stop having sex within one month after a miscarriage to prevent infection of the reproductive organs.

Nursing knowledge 3. Keep a calm mind and downplay the desire for gain and loss

The biggest difference between miscarriage and childbirth is: loss and gain. In addition to the physical trauma of miscarriage, women also have to face the pain of losing their baby, which causes them to be very depressed. At this time, it is very important to adjust your mood, which is helpful for both the health of the pregnant woman and the harmony of the whole family.

1. Self-regulation. Find ways to release your emotions, such as listening to music, reading books, watching DVDs, etc. to divert your attention and slowly calm your emotions.

2. Harmonious partner. As a husband, you should be more careful and take care of your wife after the miscarriage. In addition to physical care, psychological comfort is equally important. Try to express your love and care to her as much as possible, so that she can slowly forget the negative impact of the miscarriage.

Nursing knowledge 4. Strengthen nutrition, especially iron supplementation

Abortion is also a kind of miscarriage, and its postpartum diet should also be taken seriously. Strengthening nutrition is conducive to the rapid recovery of the body. Abortion will cause more or less blood loss, coupled with physical pain and psychological pressure, which will make pregnant women weak and even have mild anemia. Therefore, foods rich in protein, vitamins and inorganic salts have become the focus of postpartum supplementation. To eliminate the symptoms of anemia, it is especially important to supplement enough iron. Foods that add nutrition to the diet of postpartum women include lean meat, eggs, chicken, fresh fish, animal liver, milk, soy products, dates, and fresh fruits and vegetables.

Note: Try not to eat or eat less raw, cold, greasy, spicy and irritating food for a period of time after miscarriage.

Nursing knowledge 5. Strengthen contraception and don’t make the same mistake again

After abortion, you should strengthen contraception to avoid making the same mistake again, because ovulation may occur soon after abortion, but the endometrium needs 4-5 months to fully return to normal. Both husband and wife can take appropriate contraceptive methods or sterilization measures under the guidance of a doctor. Do not have frequent artificial abortions due to improper contraception, otherwise multiple abortions can cause the body's immunity to decline, the energy to be distracted, and it is very easy to suffer from various gynecological diseases, which seriously damages the body's health.

Nursing knowledge 6. Correct the concept that abortion is not a shameful thing

Many married women in the workplace are reluctant to delay work because of miscarriage; or they are too shy to talk about it, fearing that others will know their privacy. Therefore, some women take a few days off after miscarriage, or even do not take a rest, and go back to work immediately. In fact, it is not advisable to give up the idea of ​​rest because of privacy or work. First of all, you should correct your own concept. Miscarriage is not a shameful thing, just like giving birth. Besides, your body is your own. If you don't rest and develop a disease in the future, it will be more costly. Compared with work, your body is the capital of revolution!
