Postpartum Care

Postpartum Care is a critical phase of maternal and infant health that begins immediately after childbirth and typically lasts for six to eight weeks. Coursera's Postpartum Care catalogue teaches you the essential aspects of this crucial period, including physiological changes in the mother's body, newborn care, and potential complications to watch for. You'll learn to assess maternal recovery, support breastfeeding, recognize signs of postpartum depression, provide infant care guidance, and implement strategies for promoting overall well-being for both mother and baby. Mastering postpartum care skills empowers healthcare professionals, new parents, and caregivers to ensure the best possible outcomes during this vulnerable time, ultimately contributing to the long-term health and well-being of mothers and their newborns.
