Dear expectant mothers, your body needs special care in the first week after caesarean section. If conditions permit, hiring some helpers would be a good choice. Of course, it is also great to have the company and assistance of your husband, mother, or other relatives. Avoid lifting heavy objects and doing housework

Try to avoid lifting heavy objects or doing housework to give your body enough rest time. If you need to hold your baby, remember to hold your baby around your waist and use your arms to support it to avoid stress on the abdomen. When bending over, please choose to bend your knees, which can better protect the wound. Use analgesics in moderation

Mild pain is normal, but if it hurts a lot, you can use a mild analgesic in moderation. Special reminder: if you are breastfeeding, be sure to consult your doctor before taking any medication. Wound Care

The pain and discomfort from the wound will last for a few weeks but will gradually get better. During this time, you can apply a light dressing to reduce irritation and wear loose-fitting clothing to make the wound feel more comfortable. There may be temporary throbbing and itching at the scar site. This is a normal process of wound recovery, so don’t worry. If you notice redness, swelling, persistent pain, or unusual discharge around the wound, contact your doctor immediately as this may be a sign of wound infection.

♀? Gradually resume exercise

When the pain gradually disappears, you can begin to gradually resume exercise. Since the muscles in the perineal area are not damaged, you can focus on exercising your abdominal muscles. Remember, the exercises should be "gentle and steady." Develop an exercise plan step by step and stick to it. In a few months, you will be able to regain your pre-pregnancy figure.

Consult your doctor

Special reminder: if you are breastfeeding, be sure to consult your doctor before taking any medication. Regarding the resumption of sexual life, it all depends on the healing of the wound and the recovery of the cervix. Your doctor may recommend waiting 4 to 6 weeks before recovering.

Every mother is great. I wish you all can get through this special period smoothly and be healthy and happy!
