Get to know the care after childbirth! When a woman just had her baby or babies, it’s importar for her to know the care that she must have after childbirth. This care must be followed for the mom and the baby to be healthy, calm and enjoying every moment together during the first days alive. We are going to share some tips you should keep in mind and follow after you have had your baby.

At Advanced Fertility Clinic Cancun we want you to be healthy before, during and after your pregnancy.

Before starting, we would like to remind you that your specialist opinion is really important, and you should follow every recommendation given by her/him.
Labor can last several hours, which causes a lot of mothers to end up exhausted. It’s recommended to rest, take care and breastfeed the baby during the stay at the hospital.

Rest.

Once you have arrived home after giving birth, you will need to rest while you recover. Adapting to the changes in your body will take some time, we recommend you to relax and enjoy the first days with your baby. During this period of time it’s important that your partner or your family support you so that you can rest while they take care of the baby.

Get to know the changes your body might go through.

As we mentioned previously, your body will have some new changes after birth. For example:

• Bleeding: You are going to have menstrual blood like runoff, this is called “lochia” and it will disappear little by little.
• Cramps
• Constipation
• Swelling: in your legs or feet.

In addition to facing these changes, you should take care and maintain clean the cesarean wounds or from the epistostomy in case that it was a natural birth.

Follow your specialist indications.

Your specialist will know what’s best for you and your baby. So don’t forget to follow each and every recommendation shared by him/her. If you have any doubt don’t hesitate to get in contact so that you can get informed and orientated.

Take care of your mental health.
