But why does this happen? And is the loss of the former attractiveness such an irreversible process and such an expensive payment for the happiness of contemplation of a small, native creation.
After all, there are many examples where a woman who has given birth to a child, and often more children, after birth returns an attractive form. But how to restore the old form after giving birth?
The excessive appetite that nature gives to a pregnant woman does not simply appear. Thanks to the appearance of such a "reserve" a woman ensures the safety and nutrition of the baby, which grows and develops inside her. This process takes 9 months, because it is logical that the young mummy will not return quickly to the former form. In addition, for the weight gain in moms who breastfeed, the hormone prolactin, which stimulates the release of milk, responds. And very often, when breastfeeding is over, a woman acquires a more slender figure than before pregnancy. Therefore, the chances of returning to the previous size in moms, who for a long time breastfeed the baby higher than those whose babies are on artificial feeding.
To hope for mother-nature, of course you can, but not always it gives a result, especially if a woman, during pregnancy, on the advice of grandmothers-moms, ate "for two". So as not to fight excess weight after childbirth, during pregnancy, you need to eat no more, but better. Proteins, carbohydrates, fats - everything should be balanced. And fresh vegetables and fruits are regular guests on the table.
And if you add exercise to proper nutrition, regular walks with a stroller in the open air, the probability of very quickly recovering from childbirth and returning the former form increases many times. The sports load should be moderate, even if before the pregnancy the woman was engaged in sports. In addition, an active lifestyle during pregnancy is a pledge of good health and good spirits. And pleasant emotions will be useful to both the future mother and the developing child.
Simple exercises after natural childbirth can be done immediately after discharge from the hospital. They will contribute to a better reduction in the uterus and anterior abdominal wall, and you can quickly restore your pre-pregnancy forms. If a woman is stitched to the perineal region, she can be recharged, but within a month it is not advisable to take sedentary postures. After cesarean section, simple exercises can be done in about two weeks. Fitness classes in the sports club can be resumed only after the expiration of the postpartum period, which lasts six weeks.
During pregnancy, not only does the figure change. The skin also changes. Very often prospective mothers are bored with varicose veins, because the load on the cardiovascular system during pregnancy doubles. And he delivers many unpleasant minutes to the future mummy. And also stretch marks on the body. After delivery in the fight against stretch marks, stretch marks usually win. Therefore, the prevention of these unpleasant manifestations should be given special attention. Such preventive measures can be and contrast shower, wiping with cool water, and wearing special corsets, bandages, compression stockings. Just do not forget about the skin care products, which are well moisturized, increasing its elasticity, and are an effective prevention of stretch marks.
But all this is more of the medical aspects that the expectant mother must necessarily explain to the doctor. But the daily care of yourself is already the work of the woman herself. Often because of bad state of health, there is absolutely no desire to apply makeup, dye hair, do a manicure-pedicure. Especially in later terms, when, which is a sin to conceal, there is no desire even to "climb out" from your favorite robe. But the bad state of health passes, and the habit does not follow after itself remains. Especially after the birth of a child, when everything is complicated by the lack of time. A neglected appearance is a bad mood, and the longer this attitude to one's own appearance, the deeper the problem may be after giving birth. And the banal laziness in the future can lead to deep depression.
