How Long Does It Take to Restore the Body Shape After Childbirth?

The recovery time for the postpartum body depends on specific and practical considerations. Delivery usually has two methods: vaginal delivery and cesarean section. If a vaginal delivery is chosen, and if great attention is paid to body management after delivery, without frequently eating greasy food such as fried chicken and fried meat, the body may gradually recover in about three months. However, if no attention is paid to body management after vaginal delivery, and if a light diet is not observed, the body may gradually recover in about six months.

If a cesarean section is chosen, and if there are no symptoms such as abdominal pain or irregular vaginal bleeding after delivery, and if the physical recovery is good, the body may gradually recover in two to three months. However, if there are frequent physical discomforts and poor recovery after delivery, it may take five to six months to recover the body shape. Everyone's physical recovery is different, so it varies from person to person, and generalizations should not be made.

After delivery, the body will be relatively weak, so attention should be paid to the hygiene and care of wounds, and the wound tissue should not be frequently touched with hands. At the same time, attention should also be paid to keeping the abdomen warm to avoid catching a cold. A light diet should also be observed in daily life, and high-protein foods such as pig's trotter soup and crucian carp soup can be eaten to promote milk secretion and better breastfeeding for the baby.
