2, the misunderstanding of postpartum diet
Myth 1: Pregnant women should avoid eating. Many pregnant women have taboo habits. In fact, postpartum needs sufficient and rich nutrition, and the main and non-staple foods should be diversified. Eating only one or two foods can not only meet the needs of the body, but also is not conducive to breast milk secretion.
Myth 2: Eat more old hens when you are weak after childbirth. After delivery, especially after cesarean section, the new mother's gastrointestinal function has not recovered, so she can't eat too greasy food. Old hens, hooves and other foods have high fat content and are not suitable for immediate consumption after delivery. Postpartum weakness is caused by excessive physical exertion during childbirth and lactation after childbirth. At this time, the parturient can eat some digestible liquid or semi-liquid foods, such as shrimp Huimian Noodles and sweet potato porridge.
Myth 3: In order to produce milk early, drink more soup immediately after delivery. There is a link between delivery and milk production, which is to make all mammary ducts unblocked. If the mammary duct is not completely unblocked, the mother will drink a lot of soup, and the secreted milk will be blocked in the mammary duct, which will seriously lead to maternal fever. Therefore, if you want to produce milk early after delivery, you must let the newborn suck the mother's breast early and stimulate the mother's mammary duct to produce more milk. After all the mammary ducts are unblocked, it will be helpful for mother to drink some light and less oily soup, such as carp bean curd soup and eel soup.
Myth 4: Soup is more nutritious than meat. Always drink chicken soup, sparerib soup, fish soup and pig's foot soup during puerperium to help lactation, but at the same time, eat some meat. Meat is much more nutritious than soup, and it is unscientific to say that soup is more nutritious than meat.
Myth 5: There are many postpartum hemorrhage, so eat longan, red dates and red beans to replenish blood. Longan, red dates and red beans are all foods that promote blood circulation. Eating these foods after delivery will increase the amount of bleeding. These foods are all high-sugar foods. Some pregnant women eat in bed and don't brush their teeth in time, which is easy to cause tooth decay. Generally suitable for 2 weeks after delivery or after lochia is clean.
Myth 6: You can't eat fruit in the month. Fruit contains many vitamins and trace elements. Do not eat particularly cold fruits, such as pears and watermelons, except for 3-4 days after delivery. In the following days, eat 2-3 fruits every day. Some pregnant women will use microwave ovens to heat fruits, which is actually unscientific. Because vitamins in fruits are easily oxidized, heating or long-term storage will cause the loss of nutrients.
Myth 7: Ham is good for long wounds, so eat more. Ham itself is a pickled product, which contains a lot of nitrite. Nitrite is a carcinogen. If you take too much, the human body can't metabolize it, which will cause harm to the body in the body. If pregnant women eat too much ham, the nitrite in ham will enter the milk and accumulate in the baby, which will bring potential harm to the baby's health. Therefore, pregnant women should not eat ham.
