The fourth trimester
What your 6 week follow up appointment should look like before you’re left alone again.
I was shocked and angry to find out how many women did not have this experience for their 6 week appointment.
Postpartum fires me up just as much as pregnancy. I stress the importance for these appointments to my clients. At 7 weeks postpartum I had a massive clot almost taking my life. My appointment was scheduled a few days after this happened due to a full OB schedule.
I keep going back to YOUR PROVIDER. You MUST feel SAFE and know your providers are giving you the BEST care there is. I guide and support my clients through this journey giving then tools to help ask the right questions and care for themselves and baby during this time I’d learning.
Postpartum tips:
🤱🏻Make sure you leave the hospital with a scheduled appointment.
🤱🏻Ask all your questions when your OB is ready to discharge.
🤱🏻Any discomfort and pain express it at your appointment
🤱🏻You can bring baby to appointment
🤱🏻 Make sure to schedule an appointment with you GP after OB.
