After a girl gives birth, her uterus will not disappear immediately due to inertia. Instead, it will maintain a big belly for a period of time. Therefore, women will have the worry of abdominal fat getting bigger after giving birth. Postpartum abdominal weight loss has also become their need, so what do you think should be done to lose abdominal weight after delivery? Let’s go take a look below!
1. Adequate sleep time
Poor sleep is detrimental to postpartum weight loss Instead of helping, the belly is harmful. Lack of sleep can easily cause the accumulation of toxins in the body, affect the quality of breast milk, and be detrimental to the baby. In addition, the accumulation of toxins will affect fat metabolism and hinder weight loss. Therefore, mothers should ensure adequate sleep time. High-quality sleep can also help maintain a good mood and help postpartum recovery.
2. Balanced diet
During breastfeeding, mothers should not diet to lose weight. After stopping breastfeeding, you should also pay attention to a balanced diet. Since during breastfeeding, the baby's nutrition basically comes from breast milk, the mother's nutrition must keep up. However, after stopping feeding, many mothers still cannot adjust their appetite in time and still eat and drink excessively. In the past, the nutrients that exceeded the baby's own needs were supplied to the baby through milk, but now the excess can only be transferred to the mother. If you are not careful, it may become fat. Therefore, once breastfeeding is stopped, new mothers should pay attention to their diet, eat more vegetables, fruits and milk in moderation, and eat less French fries and cola.
3. Abdominal massage
Do more abdominal massage after taking a bath. Since you have given birth to a baby, the intensity of the massage must be controlled and not too hard. Doing circular massage around the belly button, or gently rubbing the belly up and down can help slim down the belly after childbirth.
4. Walking
Don’t sit down and rest immediately after dinner. You can take a walk after dinner, which is very helpful for slimming down the belly after childbirth. The correct way to walk should be to hold your chest high, head up, take long steps, and walk approximately 60 to 80 meters per minute. The upper limbs should swing with the rhythm of the steps, and the walking line should be straight, not left or right. Walk for half an hour to 1 hour every day. The intensity varies depending on your physical condition. Generally, it is appropriate to sweat slightly. As long as you stick to it for 3 weeks, you will see obvious belly slimming effects.
5. Sit-ups
BodyAfter basically recovering, the mother can do sit-ups to slim down her belly. The correct method is: after raising the body 10 to 20 centimeters from the ground, tighten the abdominal muscles and pause for a moment, and then slowly lower the body back to the original position. When your back touches the ground, you can start the next cycle of movements. This action can eliminate belly fat and create beautiful abdominal muscles.
