I'm so sorry you're going through this, please know you are not alone and many of us have been there too. From my own experience, yes, confinement is generally observed after the bleeding has passed and your body has had a chance to start recovering, and most mummies I know kept it to about two to four weeks of rest, warm foods, and avoiding cold drinks and wind. It might be good to check with your gynae on what she recommends for your specific situation, since everyone's recovery is a little different. Take care of yourself first, and lean on your support system during this time.
