Most postpartum women will have dysuria during confinement, especially those who give birth by caesarean section, and will stimulate the urethra because of catheter, so there is often an embarrassment that they can't urinate in a short time after pulling out the catheter. At this time, drinking corn silk water is helpful for diuresis and urination.
In traditional Chinese medicine, corn beard is also called dragon beard, which can promote milk, and it also has a certain milk-lowering effect. If postpartum women have less milk secretion and milk deposition, they can also drink some corn silk soaked in water in moderation, which is beneficial to increase milk secretion and promote lactation. Moreover, the unique effect of promoting diuresis and clearing heat of corn stigma can also be applied to milk, which is helpful for the jaundice of newborns to subside as soon as possible. However, although corn must be soaked in water has many benefits, it should also be moderate, especially for pregnant women.
The precautions for confinement are as follows:
1, keep the perineum clean, urinate more and don't hold your urine. If there are urethral catheterization, indwelling catheter or abrasions around the urethra during delivery, it may stimulate the urethra to have this uncomfortable feeling. In daily life, you should pay attention to drinking more water, urinating more, and not holding your urine. You can wash your perineum with warm water, change your underwear and perineum pads frequently, and keep your perineum clean. Please go to the hospital when the symptoms are not relieved or aggravated.
2, postpartum weight loss does not need to be premature. Dieting to lose weight is not desirable for ordinary people, especially for new mothers. Within 42 days after delivery, the maternal body has not fully recovered to the pre-pregnancy level, so it is necessary to take in rich nutrition and get adequate rest. In addition, some pregnant women need to breastfeed and need to make up nutrition. Postpartum forced dieting, although effective in a short time, may lead to various postpartum complications. For a long time, the nutrients needed for breastfeeding will be insufficient, not only the milk secretion will be reduced, but also the milk composition will be affected, thus damaging the nutrition of newborns and affecting their growth and development. Postpartum weight loss, not too early, as long as a reasonable diet, moderate exercise, adhere to breastfeeding, generally three months after delivery will slowly lose weight.
3, postpartum skin care carefully choose skin care products. Generally speaking, due to the change of postpartum hormone level, the skin will also show a certain degree of sensitivity and fragility. Preservatives, aromatic compounds, pigments and other ingredients commonly contained in skin care products are the three major substances that cause skin allergies. Although skin care products can be used after childbirth, they need to be carefully selected and cosmetics should be avoided as far as possible. Daily use of skin care products generally does not affect breastfeeding.
4. Postpartum hair loss can recover by itself in 6-9 months after delivery. Postpartum hair loss is generally a physiological phenomenon caused by hormone readjustment in postpartum body. It will recover spontaneously within 6-9 months after delivery without special treatment. If hair loss is serious, you can take vitamin B 1 and oryzanol under the guidance of a doctor. Pay attention to maintaining adequate sleep and a good mental state in daily life, pay attention to a reasonable diet, eat easily digestible foods with high protein, low fat, high vitamins and iron, and eat more fresh vegetables.
