Pregnant women are still weak after giving birth to their children, so they should be supplemented with nutrition in time during confinement to ensure their health. So what should pregnant women eat in confinement? What can't pregnant women eat in confinement? What should I eat just after giving birth to a child? What are the recommendations for confinement diet? Let me give you a detailed introduction.

What to eat in confinement?

1, the diet should be rich in protein

Eat more protein than usual in the month, especially high-quality animal protein, such as chicken, fish, lean meat, animal liver, etc. You can also drink milk and beans in moderation. But not excessive intake, otherwise it will increase the burden of liver and kidney, and it will easily lead to obesity, but it will be harmful to the body. Generally, 90-95g of protein can be ingested every day.

2. The main and non-staple foods should be diversified.

Don't be partial to food. You should eat coarse grains and flour and rice. You can't just eat polished rice and flour, but also mix with coarse grains, such as millet, oats, corn flour, brown rice, standard flour, red beans and mung beans. This can not only ensure the intake of various nutrients, but also make protein play a complementary role and improve the nutritional value of food, which is very beneficial to the new mother's recovery.

3. Eat more foods rich in calcium.

Breast-feeding mothers have a great demand for calcium, so they need to pay special attention to supplement it. protein should be increased by about 25 grams every day to avoid affecting milk secretion. Because the intake of protein from the diet is insufficient, it has no obvious effect on the protein content in milk, but it will affect the secretion of milk.

4. Eat more foods rich in iron.

It is also very necessary to supplement iron for postpartum hemorrhage and feeding the baby, otherwise anemia will easily occur. If you pay more attention to eating some foods containing heme iron in your diet, such as animal blood or liver, lean meat, fish, rape, spinach and beans, you can prevent postpartum anemia.

5, reasonable intake of essential fat

Pay attention to the intake of essential fats, among which fatty acids are very beneficial to the baby's brain development, especially unsaturated fatty acids, which are particularly important for the development of the central nervous system. The fat content and fatty acid composition in the diet of nursing mothers will affect the content of these nutrients in milk. But it should not be taken in too much, and the heat energy provided by fat should be lower than 1/3 of the total heat energy.

6. Eat more vegetables, fruits and seaweed.

The habit of forbidding or eating less fruits and vegetables after delivery should be corrected. Fresh vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, minerals, pectin and adequate dietary fiber, and seaweed can also provide a proper amount of iodine. These foods can not only increase appetite, prevent constipation, promote milk secretion, but also provide essential nutrients for new mothers.

7. Eat more soups and drinks.

Be sure to drink more soup. Soups are delicious, easy to digest and absorb, and can also promote milk secretion, such as brown sugar water, crucian carp soup, pig's trotters soup, ribs soup, etc. It should be noted that soup must be eaten with meat.

What can't I eat in confinement?

1, do not eat cold and cold food: postpartum body is deficient in qi and blood, so you should eat more warm and tonic food to facilitate the recovery of qi and blood. If you eat cold or cold food after delivery, it will not be conducive to the enrichment of qi and blood, easily lead to digestive and absorption dysfunction of the spleen and stomach, and is not conducive to the discharge of lochia and the removal of congestion.

2, do not eat spicy and irritating foods: eating spicy foods, such as peppers, is easy to hurt body fluids, consume gas, damage blood, aggravate qi and blood weakness, and easily lead to constipation, which is not good for babies after entering milk. Moreover, pregnant women are weak in qi and blood after delivery. If they eat spicy and divergent foods, such as peppers, they can cause sweating, which not only consumes gas, but also hurts body fluids and blood, aggravates the weakness of qi and blood after delivery, and even causes diseases.

Irritating foods, such as strong tea and coffee alcohol, will affect sleep and gastrointestinal function, which is also bad for babies.

3, do not eat sour astringent foods: pregnant women postpartum, congestion internal resistance, should not eat sour astringent foods, such as ebony, lotus seeds, persimmons, etc., so as not to block blood circulation, which is not conducive to lochia discharge.

4, do not eat cold drinks: such as ice cream, ice cream, cold drinks, etc., is not conducive to the recovery of the digestive system, but also bring adverse effects to the maternal teeth.

5, do not eat salty food: salty food, such as pickled products, contains more salt, sodium in salt can cause water retention, and in severe cases, it will cause edema. However, you should not avoid salt. Because you have more urine and sweat after delivery, the discharged salt also increases, so you need to supplement a certain amount of salt to maintain the balance of water and electrolyte.

6. Do not eat foods that are hard and indigestible: The mother's own gastrointestinal function is weak, and the food with little exercise, hard, fried, fried and fat taste is not conducive to maternal digestion and absorption, and often leads to indigestion.

7, do not eat too much: maternal gastrointestinal function is weak, too much will hinder its digestive function. You should eat less and eat more meals after delivery, and you can eat 5-6 times a day.

What to eat just after giving birth to a child?

1, supplement water. After delivery, there will be some changes in the reproductive system, urinary system, endocrine system, cardiovascular system, etc. Many parturients will feel uncomfortable because of this, such as often feeling thirsty and poor appetite. This is because the secretion of hydrochloric acid in gastric juice is reduced and the muscle tension of gastrointestinal tract is reduced. Many parturients are also prone to sweating, which will easily affect human health if they do not replenish water in time. For breast-feeding women, water supplement is particularly critical.

Replenishing water is not necessarily just drinking boiled water, such as juice, milk, soup and so on are all good choices. Just after giving birth to a child, women should replenish more water, which can also help relieve fatigue, excrete waste, and promote adequate milk delivery.

2. Add salt. Salt is very beneficial to parturient, because postpartum sweating is more, the mammary gland is exuberant, and the salt in the body is easily lost with sweat, so proper salt supplementation is helpful to the recovery of postpartum physical strength.

3. Replenish calories. The daily calorie demand of women who have just given birth is about 2,700 ~ 2,800 kilocalories, and that of protein is about 80 grams, which is about 30% higher than that before pregnancy. Therefore, it is very necessary to supplement nutrition in time after production. In peacetime, we must pay attention to eating on time, and the menu should consider the balance of nutrition and try not to be picky about food. At the same time, we should also pay attention to ingesting as much protein and vitamins as possible in peacetime, so as to ensure a balanced nutrition.

4. Eat liquid food. Just after giving birth to a child, in order to replenish physical strength, it is best for the mother to eat liquid food first. Especially for the parturient delivered by caesarean section, it takes about 1 day to recover the gastrointestinal function. After the gastrointestinal function is recovered, first start eating liquid food 1 day, such as egg soup and rice soup, and can't eat flatulence food such as milk, soybean milk and a lot of sucrose. After the intestinal gas is exhausted, switch to semi-liquid food 1-2 days, such as porridge, noodle soup, wonton, etc., and then switch to normal diet.
