The first six weeks after delivery deserve as much care as the delivery itself. Here is what we watch for.
New mothers are monitored intensively for hours and then sent home for weeks. Most complications we catch — infection, rising blood pressure, poor wound healing — appear in that quiet window.
Good postpartum support covers three fronts at once: the mother's physical recovery, the newborn's feeding and weight, and the household's sleep.
We check maternal vitals, caesarean or perineal wound healing, and newborn cord care and jaundice signs at every visit, and we screen gently for postpartum depression rather than waiting to be told.
Ask for help early. Support in week one prevents most of the crises that arrive in week four.
