How to swaddle a baby! 👶🏼🤍 Save this for those early newborn days! Swaddling can help your newborn feel calm, secure and settled by mimicking the snug feeling of the womb. There are lots of different ways to swaddle, but here’s one simple technique to get you started. 🙌🏼 Always make sure your swaddle is snug around the arms, allows plenty of room for the hips and legs to move, and stop swaddling as soon as your baby shows signs of rolling. And be sure to follow safe sleep principles to keep your bub safe! #newborn #swaddle #newborntips #firsttimeparents #firsttimemum

The first few hours after a caesarean birth are all about recovery, monitoring, and getting to know your baby 🤍 Here’s what you can usually expect: ✨ Close monitoring of your blood pressure, pulse, bleeding, and pain ✨ Skin to skin cuddles if you and baby are both well ✨ Your midwife will help with your first breastfeed if you’re planning to breastfeed, otherwise they will support you to give baby their first bottle! ✨ Pain relief is started early to keep you comfortable ✨ Once you’re stable, you’ll be transferred to the postnatal ward to continue your recovery Every birth is different, so your care may vary depending on how you and your baby are doing. Knowing what to expect can help you feel a little more prepared. 🤍 Save this for later and send it to someone preparing for a caesarean birth! #postpartum #csection #caesareansection #birthprep #pregnancy
