It is hot in summer, so it is best to keep the bedroom well ventilated, and the indoor temperature is 26~28℃. If the room temperature is too high, you can use air conditioning to cool down. Whether you open the window or turn on the air conditioner, the wind should not blow directly on the parturient. Be careful not to get rash or heatstroke. Choose pure cotton clothes with good breathability. It is recommended to wear long clothes, trousers and thin socks. Usually, it is a good choice to wear a headscarf or hat in an air-conditioned room. You can take a bath four or five days after delivery. You should take a bath for five or six minutes. Don't turn on the air conditioner in the room when taking a bath. Wipe dry after taking a shower, put on clothes and socks before coming out, and don't blow.

You can brush your teeth on the second day after delivery, brush them again after supper, walk around the fields as soon as possible, or go to the fields one or two days after caesarean section. All exercises should be moderate, and the movements should be slow and light.

Second, the diet during confinement

During confinement, you should drink brown sugar water properly to promote lochia discharge, and the time for drinking brown sugar water should not be too long, usually 7~ 10 days is the best.

Every meal is based on natural food, without sugar and salt. Eat some fish, meat, vegetables, fruits, bean products, etc. Proper amount every day to ensure balanced nutrition and weak gastrointestinal digestion. You can make some fish and meat into soup and drink a little soup in moderation. Melons and fruits are cold and can be boiled.
