During postpartum confinement, mothers should eat more nutritious food, which will help the body to supplement nutrition and recover after childbirth, and on the other hand, promote the secretion of breast milk, so that the baby can eat well and grow healthily, but not all foods are suitable for eating during confinement, so can you eat seafood during confinement?

Seafood can be eaten during confinement, but it is recommended to eat fish seafood, because most fish contain a variety of beneficial nutrients, such as high-quality protein, trace elements, vitamins (A, D) and unsaturated fatty acids, which can not only promote the healing of postpartum wounds and accelerate the discharge of lochia as soon as possible, but also enhance the body's immunity, resist the invasion of external diseases and help improve the quality of breast milk.

But it should be noted that not all seafood can be eaten, and the nutrition of crabs is also good. Because crabs are cold foods, they have the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, which is not conducive to lochia discharge, and there may be parasites in crabs. For pregnant women with poor immunity, eating cold crabs is prone to diarrhea and other symptoms, while breast-feeding babies may also lead to diarrhea and even eczema.

For some raw and cold seafood, such as oysters and sashimi, pregnant women should not eat it during the second month, so as to avoid that these seafood contain parasites, or are easy to deteriorate and taste, which will also cause abdominal pain and diarrhea in pregnant women. In addition, pickled seafood must not be eaten, because pickled seafood will contain a lot of harmful nitrite, which will seriously affect the health of pregnant women and babies.
