LadySarah:
I did before morning bath and night baths.During the day or peeing time or changing pad time I just wash with lukewarm water and dab with a dry towel.

No problems dear, we are all here to learn.Mine was worse with first birth too.We asked questions back to back here.

LadySarah:
All these are taught during antenatals. Sitz bath is done sitting inside a big plastic bowl that can contain your buttocks where you've added your water and salt. some new ones are fitted to your toilet sit. Some docs frown against it cos so many new moms are confused with how hot the water should be so they end up melting their stitch and come back for restitching.Just make sure the area is always dry.

For the 1st week after childbirth your diet should mainly consist of fruits and veggies.My hospital normally advice we take lots of veggetable soup without swallow to get the guts going and plenty water. The first poop is very scary bcoz of fear of burstingv the stitch so it needs to be very soft.You can take any fruit you want. Orange is good too.All these will pass and you will get the hang of it.

LadySarah:
Oh no! If your milk isn't in yet give your baby formula to avoid shock from low sugar, plz follow the measurement on the container . Always give water after to avoid constipation but don't forget to be putting your baby to your breast. The sucking is what stimulates the breast to flow. you can use a breast pump too cos it mimics a baby's own or ask your husband to suck them.Use spoon and cup plsoo cos some babies when they see how easy it is from the bottle will not have patience sucking breast unless you express in a bottle unless you don't mind.

Try to make yourself happy and relaxed, it also affects milk production.

FairyGodmother:
I guess you are tensed. Stress affects breastmilk production. Think less. Please don't starve the baby give her the NAN 1. She needs to eat to keep up her blood sugar. Hypoglycaemia in newborn ain't funny. Mix about one spoon of the formula in 30ml of water and give her. Give water after each feeds to avoid constipation. You might still need to be giving her formula till you have establish a good breastfeeding sessions with her.
Concerning your episiotomy, I can relate cos I can't even brush my mouth without pain, laugh nko no, cough na die. But I got better within two weeks. My hospital really advised against any sitz bath. I used warm water with dettol to wash the place. Then pat dry with soft towel. Changed my pad often. The goal is to keep the area dry always. Remember to keep your legs together while sitting to fasten the healing. Las las everything gonna be alright. Cheers

nikkyshyne:
Depends on your body. The pain should be subsiding with each passing day unless there is an infection. Tell mama not to use hot water. Warm water will do with vitamin C. Vitamin c helps to heal the tissues. You are supposed to be greatly relieved within 2 weeks. But might experience little pains for up to a month.

LadySarah:
OK, You will heal soonest at least in 1 week you should be relieved of the pain and swelling. it's the package oo.Jst take your drugs religiously it's very important to promote healing. before 1 yr now you will start disturbing for another baby. lol

LadySarah:
when did you give birth?

LadySarah:
warm salty water so your stitch won't melt.

nikkyshyne:
Sorry dear. Take vitamin C and sit on warm not hot salted water.

If it's wooden, you'll get this for 45k.
Delivery depends on where it's going but should be around 5k sha.
