Welcome to the Postpartum Recovery Class with Dr. Sterling. This essential video walks you through what to expect physically after giving birth—whether by vaginal delivery or cesarean (belly birth). Dr. Sterling covers everything from bleeding and cramping to hemorrhoids, abdominal wall recovery, pelvic floor dysfunction, and perineal lacerations.
In this class, you’ll learn:
-
Which postpartum symptoms should never be ignored
-
How postpartum recovery really unfolds (hint: it’s not linear)
-
Nutrition, rest, and healing tips to support your recovery
-
What to expect from vaginal tears, c-section recovery, and prolapse
-
How to recognize and address bladder issues, hemorrhoids, and pelvic floor weakness
-
Why postpartum care goes far beyond six weeks—and how to advocate for yourself
This class is packed with practical guidance, realistic expectations, and encouragement to get the care you deserve.
