Principles of exercise intervention in women after cesarean section (useful for cute babies).
1.Women who have had a cesarean section can perform appropriate deep breathing exercises, paying attention to snorting and exhaling slowly, so as not to make the abdominal wound feel painful.
2.In principle, exercise after cesarean section should be performed on the premise that the incision is medically examined to confirm complete healing.
