What to Expect Immediately After Giving Birth
In this episode, I'm helping prepare you for what to expect in the first few hours after birth. Don't say no one told you! I’m sharing information about:

Afterpains (because your uterus isn’t done yet)
When you can move around, eat and shower
I also have some advice from watching many people recover soon after the baby arrives.
