Is "confinement" useful? Is it pseudoscience?

No, confinement is a very useful behavior. Anything left over from a long history and culture is not pseudoscience, but something that has been proved to be really useful after scientific proof. Don't tell me that foreigners don't have confinement at all. They all live as usual, which won't affect their lives, let alone rest, and they are so delicate. In fact, it is the difference of regional culture, and it is more likely to be the difference of national and regional climate or other conditions. If a foreign women grew up in China, or even a China grew up in a foreign country and got married and had children, maybe she still needs confinement. Perhaps compared with foreign women's bodies, China women are more suitable for confinement, or, in the climate of China, confinement is really better.

It is also possible that foreign countries have higher requirements for women, so confinement is actually a good way to restore their health, but they have never experienced this experience because they pursue a free and independent life and a busy life. Maybe they will be better after confinement!

The connotation of confinement is that women should have a full physical conditioning and cultivation after giving birth to their children, which is recorded in ancient books. From the sociological and medical point of view, confinement can help the lying-in woman recover her exhausted body from childbirth and all kinds of anxiety, uneasiness and impatience caused by taking care of the children. This is not only good for the mother, but also good for her mental recovery.

The record of confinement can be traced back to the Book of Rites, in which confinement is called "within one month". Make records to prove the correctness of confinement. So confinement is not pseudoscience.
