Congratulations on the arrival of your beautiful little bubba. Whether this is your first, second or sixth little cherub the excitement and joy of holding your newborn in your arms is the same!
You will have midwives, GP’s and nurses looking after your baby and making sure they are healthy and thriving…but what about you?
A 6 week check up for mum usually goes something like this…
“How you feeling?
Good? That’s great. Let us know if anything changes”
And you are free to do what you like. Unfortunately there is more wrong and harmful advice that helpful correct advice these days and women are just not given the information about what happens to their body post-nataly. Common questions I get asked are…
When is it ok to start back to gym/running/netball/HIIT?
Leaking is normal after babies isn’t it?
Why do I feel something heavy and bulging in my vagina?
Sex is always painful for women especially after babies, right???
The answers to ALL these questions and many many more are here!
