Course details

During pregnancy, a woman grows physically, faces hormonal changes, swelling, depression, stress, anxiety.

Recovery allows the body to return to normal. There has been hormonal imbalance and the uterus needs to return to pre-pregnancy size too. Many women will tell you they feel fatigue, some will have post delivery blue which may last between days to weeks.

Generally, we take good care of the new mummy and give her adequate rest, nutritious food which can produce more milk, and massage.
