Postnatal Care
Postnatal care is essential for the well-being of both, the mother and the newborn. Some of the measures taken after delivery might change according to the type of delivery.
Postnatal Care After Natural Delivery
After a natural delivery, mothers require specialized care to ensure a smooth recovery and adjustment to motherhood. Our postnatal care includes:
- Physical Recovery: Monitoring healing of perineal tears or episiotomies, managing pain, and promoting overall physical well-being.
- Breastfeeding Support: Guidance on breastfeeding techniques, addressing common challenges, and ensuring proper nutrition for both mother and baby.
- Emotional Support: Providing emotional support and counseling to address postpartum emotions, anxiety, and mood changes.
- Nutritional Guidance: Recommending a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients to aid recovery and support lactation.
- Postpartum Exercises: Suggesting gentle exercises to promote physical strength and recovery after childbirth.
Postnatal Care After C-Section Delivery
Following a C-section delivery, mothers require additional care due to the surgical nature of the procedure. Our postnatal care for C-section deliveries includes:
- Wound Care: Monitoring incision healing, providing guidance on wound care, and managing pain effectively.
- Breastfeeding Assistance: Supporting breastfeeding positions that are comfortable post-surgery and addressing any challenges that may arise.
- Pain Management: Offering pain relief options that are safe for both mother and baby while promoting healing.
- Mobility Support: Encouraging gentle movement to prevent blood clots and aid in recovery without straining the incision site.
- Emotional Well-being: Addressing emotional concerns related to the surgical birth experience and providing resources for mental health support.
