Need to have fruits daily, should take bath daily .body hygiene is very important for baby health as well as for proper suture healing, there is no specific restriction to spicy foods or oily foods … you can have them if you are comfortable with no acidity or bowel discomfort. you can start doing your routine household work after 6 weeks once you start feeling comfortable

You should eat a good amount of fruits
Avoid spicy food because you can endup with acidity
you should definitely take a bath
avoid exccess intake of oil
irrespective of whether you take a bath with cold or warm water the belly fat needs exercise to go
you need to start working out after 45 days if you want to go back to pre pregnancy weight
