Hi gals,
I think we should bathe everyday esp if we r breastfeeeding. Just that have a quick one and wipe ourselves dry b4 coming out fr the bathroom.
As for hair, maybe dont wash everyday lor.
Btw, we can add rice wine into warm water to wipe ourselves.Damn shiok man! But dont wipe the breast area if u r breastfeeding.
Last time in china, they r using well water and bcos of the 4 seasons,thats explain why they cant bath and this was passed down to us.
In spore,the weather is so humid...aiyo, if dont bath, i think it will affect our mood and we will bcm vy "pek che".
Imagine u still got lochia, wound & breast engorgement.
Melody999,
You r right!We shouldn't carry heavy things and remember to maintain gd posture when we breastfeed so that we will not suffer from backache.
Rem to rest as much as possible... If cant sleep, try to lie down n rest...BB sleep, we rest! This is the period to build up our bodies.
Btw, some of us may be constipated during this period bcos of the heaty food. I also forgot wat kinda of fruits we can eat during confinement.
Does anyone know?
Somemore,I pushed too hard during labour, resulted in pile.
That time,I'm vy scared of doing big biz...damn painful. Rem to ask gynae for medicine to soften our stools if u happened to hav *touchwood*.
Just to check ,do u gals intend to carry on eating your supplements like fish oil & calcium pills when u breastfeeding?
Sha987,
I think you can work till the day u deliver, unless you wan to rest.
There will be labour symptoms like mucus plug,show n water bag bursting etc.
When u approaching ur EDD, rem to put on pad so that u will not b so messy .
