https://mommyato.com/blog/postpartum/health/postpartum-health-tips-for-new-moms/ The postpartum period can be challenging for new moms. Between the shifts in hormone levels, vaginal bleeding, and the newness of caring for your newborn, it can be overwhelming. Don’t neglect your own health and wellbeing. It’s so important that you prioritize your health as a new mom. Here are 6 postpartum health tips that will get your new journey off on the right foot. 1. Schedule Your Postpartum Checkup One of your first priorities after giving birth is to schedule your postpartum health checkups with your OB/GYN or other obstetric care provider. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends that new moms schedule an initial health assessment within the first 3 weeks of delivery. They also recommend a more comprehensive postpartum followup within the first 12 weeks to assess physical, social, and psychological well-being. During this detailed assessment, you can address any medical concerns that you may be experiencing regarding your own health, sexuality, diet, exercise, emotional well-being, infant care and/or feeding.
