Questions to ask your provider - Checklist

As you get ready for your postpartum appointment, use this checklist as your guide to ensure you’re fully prepared. Remember, you should always reach out to your healthcare provider if something doesn’t feel right—both before and after the six-week mark.

It’s important to recognize that nothing magical happens at six weeks; your body continues to heal and adjust during this crucial time. Even the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology acknowledges that a single postpartum visit often falls short of addressing the needs of new parents.

Unfortunately, until insurance companies align with these updated recommendations, advocating for your own care is essential. This guide empowers you to address your needs thoroughly and effectively, ensuring you receive the support you truly deserve. Your health matters—let’s make sure you’re heard!
