Guidelines For Postpartum Ayurvedic Medicine

By Jeffrey Hughes


Post-delivery depression is a common thing that is usually assumed until it affects you or people surrounding you. No amount of prior preparation readies new moms to surprises as well as anxieties of a newborn baby. For some women, it is easy to overcome worries besides doubts brought by motherhood while others find it almost impossible to conquer those emotions. Even though this may be the case, very few of such mothers consider such as post-birth depression. Before visiting specialists, victims of such may undergo postpartum Ayurvedic medicine which considers healing during the first 42 days after delivery. Outlined below are tips recommended by this approach.

Friends plus family are a part of quick healing after delivery. It is common for breastfeeding women to feel empty, lonely and stressed up. Giving birth comes with responsibilities which new mothers barely expect. Therefore, it is important to have friends and family around you at that time. They are a source of encouragement as well as great company. However, having so many of them at the same time is overwhelming. To prevent this, one may schedule when someone will visit.

Metabolism is high after delivery. Bodies of breastfeeding mothers need a lot of energy. For this reason, mothers should ensure they eat healthily. Cold foods, as well as blended juices, may hinder the production of milk. Instead, moms can take hot drinks. Bone soups are most recommended for their ability to provide calcium. Meats, as well as other hard to digest foods, must be avoided during initial weeks. Moms can also take some ground ginger and lime once after or before feeding to reduce stomach upsets. For intolerant infants, this should be evaded.

When it comes to proper feeding habit, it is necessary to create a feeding calendar earlier before delivery. Share this with relatives who will be bringing you food in shifts. It is tiresome to cook let alone think of what to be eaten while one is breastfeeding.

Relaxing your body parts after delivery is necessary. Since one may not be strong enough to go on hard workouts, massages are very effective. Use recommended oil since lubricates are nourishing, grounding besides being dense. If you have a partner, they are best at offering help. However, in their absence, one may immerse themselves in a routine of self-massage ensuring a sufficient amount of warm oil is used.

Every mom is worried about an increased size of bellies after birth. It is normal to have a loose sagging stomach which is caused by the empty space initially occupied by your womb. Therefore, breastfeeding women are encouraged to tie their bellies immediately after birth using a long cloth or tummy trimmers. Tying gives a feeling of stability and fullness around the abdominal area. However, for mothers who give birth through caesarian section, this may not be possible straight away.

Enough sleep is key to a quick recovery process. Experts believe one major contribution of post-birth depression is insufficient sleep. Keen observation will enable mothers to learn when their infants sleep most. At that time they too can sleep. If this is not possible, then relatives or parents may help with carrying babies as mother sleeps.

Like any other emotional condition, post birth stress is a medical state whose cure may be found in counselors. If after observing the above guidelines moms still feel fatigued, anxious and sad all times, they may consider seeing a psychologist. This should not be shameful at all.
