After 9 months of waiting when finally the day come , every pregnant woman wants a natural vaginal delivery but sometimes when situation become worse a cesarean delivery happens . Both the ways are good but the recovery with a vaginal delivery is very fast than the c-section one. This is the truth everyone knows. But what life faces after a vaginal birth !! Let's discuss ..
The most common symptom a woman experience after delivery is a bloody discharge called 'Lochia' which looks like menstrual period but actually not and lasts for at least 8 weeks after given birth. Women also feel little cramping kind sensation which is again very natural as the uterus is trying to get back its shape again.
There are also other symptoms like uterine pain, breast feeding issues, breast swelling , body swelling ( due to excessive blood loss during delivery) ,etc. These symptoms vary from person to person. When the delivery is normal , the staying hour in the hospital is also less. Hospitals do keep vaginal delivery patients for 24 hours maximum in the hospital unless any emergency happen. In between it is necessary to consult the gynecologist and pediatrician for any kind of help to avoid any further problem. It is always good to clear all doubts beforehand. Normally lactation issue happens after delivery which you need to clear with the lactation doctor in the hospital only.
In hospital doctors usually check the bowl movement of the patient before leaving . Feeding the new born is also a challenge . To get a good flow of milk you need to have good nutritious diet & sufficient rest and more over being happy is equally important . I will do a dedicated post on breast feeding , the issues and how to overcome that in a separate post.
Being physically active after a month or so is necessary to get back in shape. Yoga , easy leg and hand exercises helps in that case. Postpartum depression is very common as everything around you will change and to overcome that you need to do meditation to keep your mind and body calm . Trust me , a 15min. meditation actually works to give you that mental peace . Feeling tired and emotionally weak during the first month is quite normal. Eventually you will feel better with time . Moreover staying happy and taking rest is the key to overcome those emotional postpartum days .
