      1. Confinement matters - the indoor temperature should not be too high, and frequent ventilation is required:

      Open the windows frequently for ventilation and keep the indoor air fresh, both for the recovery of the new mother and the health of the baby. healthy Growth is very beneficial. However, avoid cross-ventilation through windows to prevent the wind from blowing and getting cold. The best way is for the new mother to be in one room and open the window of another room so that the air in the whole room is fresh.
