Spending the month of postpartum really is a very painful ordeal. Although the weather has become cooler by this season, the bed is still quite warm. Add to that the postpartum weakness and susceptibility to sweating profusely, leaving Jinghan drenched in sweat and smelling unpleasant.
"Mother, when on earth can I finally take a bath?" Jinghan couldn't help but ask.
"You must wait until the month has passed. A woman who has given birth has all her bones loosened, and she must be extremely careful. If something goes wrong, it could lead to lingering health issues," Mrs. Xue stroked Jinghan's head. "You must bear with it, you're actually having it relatively easy. Imagine if you had given birth in June; that would be even more torturous."
