Postnatal Care

Postnatal Care at Sparsh IVF

Because Birth Is Just the Beginning

Childbirth is one of life’s most profound experiences. But while the delivery marks the arrival of your baby, it also marks the beginning of a new chapter for you — a time of healing, adjustment, and emotional transformation.

At Sparsh IVF, our commitment to you doesn’t end at delivery. We continue to support you in the critical weeks and months after birth through our dedicated Postnatal Care Program — designed for safe recovery, optimal infant care, and maternal wellbeing.

What Is Postnatal Care?

Postnatal care refers to the medical, emotional, and practical support provided to the mother and newborn after delivery — typically extending up to six weeks, but in reality, often needed for much longer.

Whether your baby arrived via normal delivery or cesarean, and whether your pregnancy was natural or IVF-conceived, Sparsh IVF offers comprehensive postpartum care rooted in empathy, clinical monitoring, and education.

Why Postnatal Care Matters

The postnatal phase is a period of intense physical and emotional change. Common post-delivery challenges include:

  • Uterine healing and bleeding (lochia)
  • Perineal pain or cesarean wound recovery
  • Breastfeeding issues or engorgement
  • Emotional shifts, including postpartum depression
  • Nutritional deficiencies like iron or calcium loss
  • Sleep deprivation and exhaustion
  • Newborn care anxiety, especially in first-time mothers
  • Complexities in IVF or NICU babies

Without timely support, even manageable issues can become distressing. That’s why postnatal care in India is no longer optional — it’s essential.

IVF Mothers Need Special Attention

Postpartum care after IVF isn’t just about the body — it’s about emotion. IVF mothers often experience:

  • Deep emotional fatigue after a long journey
  • Anxiety about bonding or feeding

  • Pressure to be a “perfect parent” after years of trying
  • Overprotection or hesitation in involving caregivers

We offer compassionate counseling and a fertility-aware postpartum team that understands your story and respects your pace.
