What shoes should I wear during confinement in summer?

New mothers always need to be careful during the confinement period in summer. In the face of the hot summer, even if you love beauty, you can't wear high heels. Flat shoes or sneakers are the only choices.

After giving birth, wearing soft-soled shoes will not make you tired easily. If you wear hard-soled shoes too early and stand for a long time, you will easily suffer from heel pain when you are older.

It is best to have a one-foot cover without shoelaces. Because new mothers are just starting to be mothers, they are inevitably a little flustered. They will be in a hurry when they get up at night to feed or when the baby suddenly cries.

New mothers are in weak health, so they have to be careful not to slip when they walk, let alone when they are holding a newborn baby. In this case, they have to be even more careful, so the soles of their shoes must be non-slip.

Even if you happen to be in confinement in the summer, don't forget to prepare cotton socks. If you are in an air-conditioned environment, it is best to wear cotton socks. Because hospitals are basically equipped with air conditioners, the room temperature will be controlled at a comfortable temperature for babies: about 24℃-27℃. In this environment, new mothers must wear cotton socks to avoid abdominal pain or colds caused by cold feet.

How to choose confinement shoes

First, keeping warm is the most important thing when wearing shoes, because illness comes from cold, and cold starts from the feet.

Second, do not flatten your feet. In addition, you should also pay attention to the fact that your shoes should not flatten your feet. The concept of not flattening your feet is that the shoes should completely follow your feet, which requires the soles to be soft.

Third, sweat absorption. Because women often sweat during the confinement period, confinement shoes must have a very good sweat absorption function, otherwise the sweat will be retained on the surface of the skin and it is easy to catch a cold. Mother Yang also recommends that all mothers wear a pair of thicker cotton socks, which can not only keep warm, but also absorb sweat.

Fourth, it must have good sealing performance and cannot let in wind, which means it must be wrapped and not let in wind.

The appropriate temperature in the room is also helpful for the recovery of the mother. The room temperature of the new mother and baby should be moderate, preferably 20℃-25℃. Too cold can easily cause the new mother and baby to catch a cold or even pneumonia. At the same time, the dry air in the room can easily damage the nasal mucosa and dry the throat; at the same time, if the room is too humid, the skin cannot sweat and will feel cold, making people feel stuffy and uncomfortable, and bacteria are easy to grow. Therefore, the relative humidity of the room should be 55% to 65%, and maintain sufficient sunlight and fresh air, which will help the recovery of the mother and the healthy growth of the newborn.
