Now that baby is here, please don’t forget about YOU! Unfortunately in the Western world, postpartum is one of the most underrated, yet crucial times on the fertility journey. No matter how your labor and delivery looked, this is the time to recover and heal. Nutrition and proper rest are essential during this time and will determine how quickly the body regains strength. Doing too much too soon will affect moods, physical recovery, and milk supply. Basically, what the birthing parent does now, will pave the way either towards, or away from longevity and health.
