Healthy Tips
Gentle support for mothers and newborns.
The early days after delivery can be joyful and demanding. Rest, practical help and timely professional advice can support the whole family.
Small routines that can help
- Make space for the mother to rest, eat nourishing food and drink fluids regularly.
- Accept practical help with meals, laundry, household tasks and safe newborn routines.
- Follow the midwife or clinician's guidance for feeding, cord care, medicines and follow-up visits.
- Keep the newborn warm, clean and safely positioned according to professional advice.
- Ask for support when feeding is painful, difficult or the baby is not feeding as expected.
- Take emotional changes seriously and speak with a healthcare professional when worry or low mood feels overwhelming.
Seek urgent medical care
Get immediate advice for heavy bleeding, severe headache, breathing difficulty, chest pain, high fever, seizures, a very unwell mother or a newborn who is not breathing, feeding or responding normally.
