What helps recover faster after giving normal birth?

Dear user, thank you for your entry. Recovery comes in many forms namely: biologically, psychologically and socially. With a perineal wound or C-section wound, keeping the wound clean and avoiding strenuous activities will encourage healing. Childbirth is a stressful event, so recounting this event to a loved one will help with dealing with all the new emotions of happiness, excitement and also anxiety. Lastly, engaging your social support network to aid in chores in daily living and running errands will help support the new member of the family, and allow the mother to focus on recovering while enjoying the moment in her new role.
