It's not just your OBGYN and midwives who look after a mother after childbirth. There are a lot more health practitioners, health providers, and services providers who can help you and your family manage the chaos that is postpartum. You and your family will need a team to help you achieve physical, mental, and social well-being during the postpartum period!

- Red flag behaviours to watch for when you're seeking help. For your and your family's safety!
QUOTES
- "This is why in many parts of the world, the postpartum care model is led by the midwives, maternity nurses, community nurses, and other primary care providers. "
- "And service providers? They are also absolutely crucial in helping you maintain and improve your social well-being and your mental health. These are babysitters, dog sitters, dog groomers, cleaning services, food delivery services, grocery delivery services, daycare, and even laundry services."
- "The biggest red flag to look out for is if someone tells you not to trust your medical doctor or medical health provider and if they discourage you from engaging with modern medical healthcare. This is unethical, irresponsible, and downright dangerous."
