Confinement can be traced back to the Book of Rites in the Western Han Dynasty, which is called "within a month". It has a history of more than 2000 years, and it is an indispensable ritual behavior after childbirth. From the perspective of sociology and medicine, "confinement" is a key period to help parturient successfully pass the physiological and psychological turning point in life.
In confinement, the traditional practice of Shanxi folk is: you are not allowed to get out of bed for three days, you are not allowed to leave the house for one month, you are not allowed to go to the streets, and you are only allowed to eat and live indoors.
In addition, you can wash your hair during confinement. When washing your hair, you need to pay attention to using warm water of 40 degrees Celsius and blow dry it as soon as possible, otherwise you will catch a cold easily. Under modern environmental conditions, moderate cleaning is beneficial to both parents and children as long as they wash their hair, blow dry immediately after taking a shower or keep warm.
Pay attention to these points in the confinement environment.
1, the indoor temperature is based on the principle of "cold without sadness, hot without sweat". That is, winter temperature 18 ~ 25℃ humidity 30% ~ 50%, summer temperature 23 ~ 28℃ humidity 40% ~ 60%.
2. Mothers should not live in an open, leaky and humid bedroom, because the maternal physique and disease resistance are low, and the bedroom needs insulation and comfort, otherwise it is easy to get sick.
3, bedroom ventilation should be based on the four seasons climate and maternal physique, maternal bedroom lighting should be moderate, adjust at any time.
