Show Notes
New Canadian research uncovers alarming postpartum risks: nearly thirty percent of life-threatening complications occur within the first six weeks after delivery. This period, with less medical monitoring than pregnancy, often overlooks severe cases like sepsis and heavy bleeding. Expanding the timeframe reveals four in ten previously undetected problems. Experts call for better postpartum watch, including home checks and expanded midwifery or nurse visits, especially for at-risk groups like Black women, low-income individuals, and those with obesity, drug use, multiples, or type one diabetes.
