What not to eat and what to eat and do after delivering a baby?

i never heard of either of these things, i was in the shower that next day after both of my girls were born getting cleaned up. having a baby makes you pretty icky and i needed to wash my hair. the only thing that my dr advised me to do as far as eating was since i was breastfeeding, dr said continue to eat just like i did when i was pregnant, 5 fruits and veggies a day, a lot of protein, iron, calcium. tons of fluids! i would have to disagree with the "don't eat beef for 3 months" because you really need to be taking in a lot of iron - after you have a baby you have your period for a few weeks and lose a good amount of blood and you need to put the iron back in your body.

Ok, I'm Asian and after I had my baby I ate whatever I wanted, and showered the same day as when I gave birth. I'm healthy and my baby is healthy. Those are old wives tales. If you're bfing, you do need to make sure you eat healthy and have plenty of fluids. Also get plenty of rest.

My mom actually made me wear a hat whenever I went out and told me to stuff cotton in my ears when I was outdoors...I took the hat off as soon as she was gone and tossed out the cotton....I'm still alive.

That is cultural for them. You don't have to do that at all if you don't want or believe in it. There is nothing that you can't eat unless you are breastfeeding and something gives your baby gas. I wouldn't do too much spice until you know you are feeling ok. The only rule of what to do is rest, take it easy, just care for you and baby, don't worry about housework, limit visitors unless they are there to watch baby while you nap or bring you a meal or something to help out. You will need the rest so don't spend all your time entertaining, there will be plenty of time for that later.
