As you might already know, pregnancy care comprises three crucial parts – prenatal care, during pregnancy care and postnatal care. While most people give a lot of attention to prenatal care, postnatal care, unfortunately, is not given too much importance. In reality, postnatal care is just as challenging and daunting as the other phases and the new mother requires a lot of care, guidance, and attention for her own recovery as well as for newborn care after delivery. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the first 24 hours after birth are very important for both the mother and the newborn baby and thus new mother care and newborn baby care should be dependable.
There are several healthcare organizations that provide new mother care and newborn care after delivery. Several home healthcare organizations have a unique postnatal care program through which the goal is to offer the best newborn care at home and take off the workload and worries of the new parents.
