After the birth, you will be given your baby to hold with an emphasis on skin-to-skin contact. The baby will never leave your room. Newborn examinations, foot-printing, etc. are done beside you on your bed. You will be given as much privacy as you feel you need to touch, cuddle, admire, and inspect your newborn infant. This is a wonderful time to take photos or video.
Postpartum Care
You will be assisted with breast-feeding and given important postpartum instructions. The majority of our clients return home within 6 – 8 hours of
delivery.
The midwife will phone within 24-36 hours from discharge with an important check list of questions.
The Lactation Consultant or a Midwife will see you and baby for an in-office exam at least once within the first three days. You are welcome to complement our baby care with visits to a Pediatrician at any time. We will also have an in-office exam for mother and baby at two weeks and six weeks after the birth.
Stay in touch with us after your birth with a wide range of classes including our low cost baby massage (Baby Love) and Postnatal Yoga class.
