IF you are ASKING—How to make C-section recovery easier?
You are in the right place!
I polled moms and asked what information got about their scar after birth…
And got a resounding “NOTHING”- Moms are getting no information about recovery from C-section after birth.
Did you know that the standard of care after knee replacements and back surgery is to rehab the muscles and surrounding body part impacted by surgery, so you can get back to a living a happy and active lifestyle?
And Moms are having surgical births, expected to care for a newborn, while sleep deprived, and get back to business as usual after 6 weeks without any guidance.
