Postpartum Care

Guidance for your health and recovery after birth.

The Fourth Trimester: Your Recovery Timeline

  • First 24 Hours: Rest is critical. Monitor bleeding. Your care team will check your blood pressure frequently.
  • First Week: Focus on bonding with your baby. Continue to monitor for signs of high blood pressure, such as severe headaches or vision changes.
  • 2-6 Weeks: Your body continues to heal. Start with gentle walks as approved by your doctor. A follow-up visit is crucial, especially if you had high blood pressure during pregnancy.
  • 6 Months: Your cardiovascular system is typically back to its pre-pregnancy state. This is a good time for a full heart health check-up.

Child Heart Health

Information to protect your child's heart from birth onwards.

Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) Prevention

RHD is a serious but preventable heart condition that starts with a sore throat (strep throat). It is a major concern in many parts of Africa.

  • Key Action: Always take your child to a clinic for a sore throat.
  • If it's strep throat, ensure they complete the full course of antibiotics, even if they feel better.
  • This simple action can prevent the bacteria from damaging their heart valves later in life.

Emergency Guide

Know the signs and what to do in an emergency.

When to Seek Help IMMEDIATELY

Go to the nearest clinic or hospital right away if you experience any of these during or after pregnancy:

  • Chest pain or pressure
  • Severe shortness of breath
  • Severe headache that won't go away
  • Vision changes (seeing spots, blurry vision)
  • Sudden swelling of face, hands, or feet
  • Seizures

Understanding Preeclampsia

Preeclampsia is a serious blood pressure condition that can occur during pregnancy or after birth. Regular blood pressure checks are the best way to detect it early. It's why attending all your antenatal visits is so important.

Iron-Rich Foods in Kenya

To prevent anemia, focus on locally available iron-rich foods like sukuma wiki (kales), managu, terere, beans (madondo), lentils (kamande), and red meat. Eating these with fruits rich in Vitamin C, like oranges or mangoes, helps your body absorb the iron better.

Africa Resources

Local support and information.

Maternal Health Hotlines

  • Kenya: AMREF Health Africa provides various support lines. Check with your local clinic for community health worker contacts.
  • Nigeria: The Lagos State Maternal and Child Mortality Reduction Program has local resources.
  • General Tip: Save the number of your local clinic, a trusted taxi driver, and your community health volunteer in your phone for emergencies.
