Postpartum & Post-Delivery Care
Dedicated maternal healing, perineal and surgical wound care, lactation support, and postnatal emotional wellness.
The postpartum period—often called the "fourth trimester"—is a vital phase of physical and psychological recovery. At Prera Women’s Hospital, our duty of care continues well beyond delivery to ensure the mother heals properly, gains lactation confidence, and transitions smoothly into parenting.
Our postpartum care includes comprehensive monitoring of uterine involution, lochia tracking, episiotomy or LSCS wound dressing, hemoglobin checks, and screening for postpartum depression or anxiety. We also provide personalized pelvic floor recovery guidance and neonatal vaccination schedules.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions answered regarding Postpartum & Post-Delivery Care at Prera Women’s Hospital.
Lochia usually transitions from red to brownish-pink and then yellowish-white over 4 to 6 weeks as the uterus contracts back to pre-pregnancy size.
Gentle walking and pelvic floor exercises can start within days after a normal birth; strenuous core workouts should wait until the 6-week obstetric check.
Keep the incision clean and dry, avoid scrubbing the line, wear loose cotton clothing, and alert our clinic if redness or drainage appears.
