The days and weeks following childbirth are known as the postnatal period—a time of healing, adjustment, and bonding between mother and baby. While it is a joyful stage of life, it is also one of the most important periods for monitoring health. Postnatal care refers to the care and support provided to both the mother and newborn during the first weeks after delivery. It is a critical time for recovery, bonding with the baby, and ensuring both mother and newborn remain healthy.
