Postpartum recovery

Postpartum recovery is about rest, gentle rebuilding, and quality building blocks. With sleep when possible, nourishing meals, and mild movement, you support recovery, energy, and hormone balance so you feel stronger step by step.

Tips for postpartum recovery:

1. Rest and ask for help. Choose recovery over perfection and share tasks whenever you can.
2. Eat nourishing protein. Think eggs, fish, yogurt, meat, or legumes, plus plenty of vegetables.
3. Hydrate well. Drink throughout the day, especially if breastfeeding and sleeping less.
4. Move gently. Start with walking and light core/pelvic-floor work as advised by your midwife or physio.
