What Is Postpartum Recovery?
Postpartum means after labor and delivery, and it is conventionally thought that this time period extends for approximately six weeks. Some would argue, that especially from an emotional standpoint, the six-week time period is a little limited. Whatever the measures of recovery in weeks, there are lots of things to expect from postpartum recovery, and these include changes to the body and emotional changes. There can also be things to look for as potential warning signs that the body or mental status is not making a healthy recovery.
