Labour, Delivery & Postpartum Care
Safe Arrival & Smooth Recovery for Mothers and Babies
The culmination of your nine-month journey deserves compassionate, expert support. At Sri Sai Women & Children’s Clinic, we are committed to making your birth experience safe, positive, and aligned with your personal preferences.
Our care extends well beyond the delivery room, focusing on your complete physical and emotional recovery and successful transition into parenthood.
1. Preparing for Labour and Delivery
Understanding the process of childbirth empowers you and helps reduce anxiety. We ensure you are fully informed about the stages, options, and pain management available.
Stages of Labour
We provide education on the three crucial stages of labour: the effacement and dilation of the cervix, the actual pushing and birth of your baby, and the final delivery of the placenta. Knowing what to expect at each stage is key to a calm birth experience.
Delivery Options
We discuss and support all safe delivery choices:
- Natural Birth (Vaginal Delivery): Supporting physiological birth processes while maintaining vigilance for safety.
- Caesarean Section (C-Section): Planning and performing scheduled C-sections when medically necessary, or managing emergency procedures with skill and speed.
- VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Caesarean): Thoroughly assessing your eligibility and risk profile for attempting a vaginal delivery after a previous C-section.
Pain Relief During Labour
We offer comprehensive advice on managing labour pain, from non-pharmacological techniques to medical interventions:
- Epidural Analgesia
- Other medical pain relief options
- Breathing and relaxation techniques
2. Postpartum Care and Recovery
The six weeks following childbirth are known as the postpartum period, and your recovery is just as important as your prenatal care. We provide structured support to monitor your physical healing and mental well-being.
Our Postpartum Support Includes:
- Physical Recovery Assessment: Monitoring uterine involution, incision healing (for C-sections), and managing common postpartum symptoms.
- Nutrition During Postpartum: Guidance on diet to support healing, energy levels, and milk production.
- Contraception Counselling: Discussing family planning options for the period following delivery.
3. Postpartum Mental Health and Breastfeeding Support
The transition to motherhood can bring emotional challenges. We provide non-judgmental care for all aspects of your well-being.
Postpartum Depression (PPD) Screening and Support
We recognize that Postpartum Depression is a genuine medical condition. Our clinic conducts routine PPD screenings and offers guidance, counselling, and necessary referrals to ensure you receive timely mental health support.
Breastfeeding Support and Advice
We are dedicated to helping you achieve your feeding goals. Our team offers expert breastfeeding support and advice, helping you troubleshoot common challenges, ensure proper latch, and maximize milk supply for your baby's optimal nutrition.
