Often than not once your baby is born you feel so relieved that you may forget to continue taking care of yourself
The first six weeks is the most crucial
You need to eat, rest, exercise, personal hygiene etc. Don’t forget your appointments
Failure to do so has landed lots of postnatal mums back to the hospital.
At least for the first six weeks consider yourself still recovering from the stress of birth. For some mums it even takes longer.
Take care of yourself and the baby also follow your doctor’s instructions.
If you had any condition during pregnancy, like diabetes, pre eclampsia, anemia, sickle cell etc. Please follow your doctor’s instructions even after birth. Don’t stop your medications or treatment because you have given birth until your doctor says so.
Beware complications can occur and be worse even after birth!
If you feel sick or have complications, report early.
It’s not over after your baby comes out. You need time to take care of yourself and fully recover!
