產後該何時進補？
傳統而言，產婦坐月以大補為主，無論開刀生產或順產，產後基本以溫補料理如薑飯和炒米水為主。中醫理論多認為「產後體質多虛多瘀」，多由於分娩時大量出血而導致氣血兩虛，也可能因為氣不夠，血流不暢導致血瘀，或是產後受涼而寒凝血滯。但實際調補不是買三十日坐月套餐就可以，反而要因應各位產婦的獨特體質再作調補。聽過有病人提及如果產後只作簡單調補，不就浪費高價聘請的陪月？當然不會，專業的陪月會作出適切的建議、烹調相應的食療，產婦能迅速復原之餘，母乳又足，產婦和新生兒都會得到適切的照料。
坐月調補重點：飲食清淡、排清惡露
飲食須知：
– 進食清淡而富營養的食物，以蒸、煮、燉為主，讓脾胃更容易吸收。
– 避免生冷飲食，以免引寒進體內而出現各種痛症或不適。
– 產後可即開始暖或熱飲米水調養脾胃，有助身體復原，虛寒體質產婦可飲用炒米水。
– 產後如出現腳踝水腫，可以試試水腫腫茶療：茯苓9克、白术6克、扁豆衣6克、陳皮9克
– 生化湯雖有助子宮收縮排出惡露，惟採用剖腹生產、已經把惡露排得較乾淨的產婦不宜多飲，按各人身體狀況而定，建議先諮詢中醫師較穩妥。
– 虛寒體質產婦於十二朝後可食用豬腳薑，但體質偏熱的產婦則少吃為妙。
-可按體質適量於餐單加添補氣血食材如紅棗、黨參、太子參等。
要注意剖腹產婦於傷口還未完全復原不宜進食如薑或有助促進傷口愈合的生魚。
When should you nourish your body after giving birth?
The confinement month focuses on proper nourishment in traditional way. Whether it was caesarean or vaginal delivery, the recovery diet plan is comprised of replenishing dishes such as ginger rice and fried rice water to nourish the body. Chinese medicine theory believes that the post-natal body constitution tend to have more asthenic symptoms and more blood stasis, mostly due to massive bleeding during childbirth, resulting in both qi and blood deficiency. It may also be due to insufficient qi and poor blood circulation then leads to blood stasis, or blood stagnation caused by child birth. It is not as simple as buying a 30-day confinement month package, but instead you should nourish your body according to your body condition. Some of you may wonder why you need to hire an expensive confinement lady for simple conditions.
