The postpartum period, also known as the puerperium, is defined as the time from the delivery of the placenta and the return of local and systemic bodily changes caused by pregnancy and childbirth to the pre-pregnancy state. The average duration of this period is 6 to 8 weeks. It is a phase in which women present intense physical, physiological and psychological changes in a short period of time, regardless of the method of delivery,
which increases their insecurity in relation to caring for their own health and the baby’s.
This is a VERY special moment, and you really want to feel well and give your best to take care of your baby.
So, you should take care of yourself in order to be ready for these first weeks.
