Mode to restore the old form
It is quite natural that after the birth you want to get to the old form as soon as possible. Having gained about 10 kg during pregnancy, you lose about two-thirds of this weight during childbirth and in the postpartum period. With the help of proper nutrition, you can easily get rid of extra pounds.
But if you are breastfeeding, every diet should be delayed until the end of feeding, because this process requires a lot of energy costs, which are restored with the help of high-calorie food. If, for some reason, you do not feed your baby, you can easily return to the body weight that you had before pregnancy, but you should not lose weight after 2 months after giving birth.
After childbirth I recommend wearing a bandage. If you have a large child or twins, it is likely that the abdominal muscles are too stretched. If you have had low back pain before and during pregnancy, it is likely that your back will require additional support. The bandage relieves back pain, helping to maintain proper posture, accelerates the healing of tissues and restore the elasticity of muscles and skin. Those who have undergone a cesarean section also recommend wearing a postnatal bandage that protects the seams from divergence and helps the healing of the postoperative wound. True, many women do well without a bandage: it may depend on how physically they come to the delivery and how difficult they are. You can act as you would be more comfortable, focusing on the condition of the muscles of the abdomen, back and overall well-being.
A wonderful way to get the old form - physical exercises. But do not start to perform them too early, because you can not force the muscles weakened during pregnancy to work intensively. To load the muscles gradually, do the exercises recommended in the maternity hospital. When the child turns six months old, you can do aerobics, swimming or the set of exercises that you performed before pregnancy. As for the practice of some kind of sport, non-breastfeeding women should not start training until the menstrual cycle is restored. And for nursing mothers, this is possible only after the end of breastfeeding. In any case, do not seriously engage in sports before 2 months after childbirth.
The most important thing is to try to correctly perceive the general idea of a healthy lifestyle, maintaining internal and external purity. This is the most faithful salvation in the recovery of the body after a difficult birth. But without personal aspiration and persistence, without understanding the processes that are happening to you, no one can help you cope with this problem.
It is now established that heavy births are associated with stressful situations that exceed the capacity of the body. The activity of the immune system decreases, so it is necessary to deal with the correction of immunity in order to increase it. Much here depends on the way of life.
The first thing that should be recommended to a woman is physical activity. After all, hypodynamia( lack of movement) has become a real calamity. Physical exercise will save you from many troubles, because with the active work of all muscles( in addition to the general beneficial effects on the body), a considerable amount of sweat and slag is released through the pores, and with them harmful salts. Physical activity is the simplest and most harmless form of recovery of the body after childbirth and prevention of many diseases.
Physical activity is not at all difficult physical work. To maintain the body in a normal vitality enough is actually quite a bit. If you will daily perform gymnastic exercises recommended in the maternity hospital, only for 10-15 minutes, then already provide yourself with a minimum. Gradually increasing activity, you will soon become extremely mobile and purposeful. So try to move as much as possible.
Do not forget that the human body wears out and extinguishes much less quickly than it is measured to it by nature, not only the muscular apparatus, but also the female organism as a whole.
