After the birth
It is important to continue receiving regular medical care for your own health condition after your baby is born as your needs may change after delivery.
Before your baby arrives, you and your healthcare team should agree on a clear plan for your ongoing care, including follow-up appointments, medications, and who will be responsible for monitoring your health.
It is also important to consider contraceptive choices available to you, as fertility can return quickly after birth; choosing a suitable and reliable method will help you plan your family safely.
If you are considering another pregnancy in the future, seeking pre‑pregnancy advice from your healthcare provider can help optimise your health, review medications, and reduce risks for both you and your baby.
