Our Services
You may be focused on the health of your baby, but we want to make sure you are also healthy after giving birth. Postpartum care is not a single visit. We are here for you for as long as you need us.
We schedule a postpartum checkup four to six weeks after delivery. During this visit, we make sure you are healing and discuss issues such as:
- Your mood and sleep
- Birth control and resuming sexual activity
- Infant care and feeding
- Urine leakage (incontinence)
- Weight loss, nutrition and exercise
