Image
The wisdom of the ancients remains valuable to this day, as it is distilled from a lifetime of living and experience. Among them, there is a saying: “Women who have just given birth should not sew with a needle.” Why is that? Why should a mother refrain from using a needle? It is often said that childbirth is a step towards “death’s door” or “pain as if breaking 20 ribs.” Therefore, the postpartum body needs time to rest and recover. Especially, women need to exercise restraint in their daily diet and activities. Exercising restraint helps women avoid postpartum illness.

It is difficult to give birth, but it is even harder to raise a child. If you spoil a child too much, they will become spoiled.

Image
Mesh melon is a delicious, sweet, and refreshing fruit that is perfect for enjoying on hot summer days. Mesh melons are also more expensive than other types of melons, so when choosing a melon, women need to be careful not to waste money on ones that are not sweet. Unlike watermelons and pears, when choosing a mesh melon, it is not necessary to look at its belly. With watermelons, observe if the belly of the watermelon is large, which means that the melon has a thick skin, so its sweetness will be lower. If the watermelon belly is small, it means that the skin is thin, so it will be sweeter. As for pears, when the fruit is ripe, the belly will become larger. The bottom of the melon should be round and full. Observe that if the round part of the belly is larger, the melon will be sweeter and tastier. However, with mesh melons, instead of looking at the belly, you should look at the texture of the surface of the skin or specifically look at the “mesh” part on the skin. If ...
