Drinking Of Warm Plain Water During Confinement

You can drink a little but not too much. Usually drink red dates drinks. If you follow traditions Chinese beliefs / practice- “1. Myth: Do not drink plain water This comes from the belief that drinking plain water causes water retention or will cool down the body too much. The truth: There is no harm in drinking plain water. In fact, because new mothers tend to sweat heavily because of hormonal changes, they have all the more reason to drink water and keep hydrated. However, new mothers should be encouraged to drink warm water instead of cold water.” There are some mummies follow strict rules.

Depends on what you believe. I’m in my confinement now, I don’t take plain water, even taking medicine I drink red dates or ginger water. Some ppl believe that drinking plain water cause “swelling” and the water retention can’t be “removed” from your body.
