Postpartum Tips
While every birth is different, and there are many variables, the road to recovery can start right away. However, you must give your body time to heal properly and listen to precautions from your healthcare team. After a cesarean birth, it takes at least 3 months for the nerves around the scar to heal and 6 months for the incision to heal completely. Even after a vaginal birth, there are many aspects of healing that need to take place. This PDF is to give some guidelines along the way. There’s a quick overview of some things to stay cautious and aware of and then we go into how to begin to start moving around again, eventually getting back to everyday movements and activities safely. I tried to include some info that new moms kept telling me they wished someone would have mentioned, as well as some thoughts and ideas for breast and bottle feeding positions. Some things will be specific to cesarean birth, some to vaginal birth, but a lot of the information is pertinent to both. I know sometimes it’s easier to digest information when we hear it. So, I will be talking through the PDF in the video with some extra explanations and tidbits.
