Summary

This video is designed to help new mothers take care of themselves, both physically and emotionally, during this period of intense change. The video includes information on “after pains” as the uterus contracts, lochia, sitz baths, episiotomy care, cesarean recovery, breast engorgement, night sweats, changes in hormonal levels, and symptoms that might indicate a problem. It encourages new mothers to take care of themselves by eating well and getting back to an exercise routine. Resuming sexual activity and using appropriate contraceptive methods are also covered.
