I'm 2weeks postpartum and I've been told to wear scarf to cover my ears , slippers all over home ,use warm water for cleaning I'm given warm foods with all ghee dry fruits my food is made in olive oil and its usually very liquidy. my mom says it is good for lactation my question too all the experienced ladies out there is it necessary to do all these precautions I mean the temperature is already hot and all this food plus I'm not allowed to have cold water restrictions on ac is this all really necessary or just old customs followed brainlessly and also will this affect my baby ?
I didn't do nothing what u said.. I dressed up according to whether... there r so many things I didn't do Wat elders said.. initially there s a controversy but nowadays they r keen on my doings... which s completely opposite to them.. concentrating on foods fa moms babies health S very important...

These all are actually good to nourish your body which recently gone through a tough phase. warm water is good anytime. Using warm water for cleaning is recommended it helps to heal the stitches soon. Even you should keep pouring warm water on the area whenever go for a bath. Scarf can be replaced with cotton😉

yes these are all old customs and to a certain extent its meant to nourish the body and heal the body since its gone through sooo much. i vouch for the eating part of it as it gives back your body what its lost . the others do what makez you confortable . i dont think ac should be a problem. if you dont wanna wear a scarf jus put cotton in your ears 😉serves the same purpose .
