Postpartum care is essential for the physical and emotional recovery of the mother and the health of the newborn.
It involves regular checkups, self-care for the mother, and close monitoring of the baby.
For mothers, care includes monitoring for signs of infection, managing physical discomfort, maintaining good nutrition, and addressing any mental health changes.
For newborns, care focuses on hygiene, warmth, early and exclusive breastfeeding, and monitoring for danger signs that require immediate medical attention.
