UPDATED: April 2020

I was privileged to teach at Nashville's 3rd annual Empower Your Birth Conference. Here's a quick recap from the class I taught on Cesarean Recovery tips.

Did you know that C-Sections are the most commonly performed surgical procedure in America? It's true. One in three women will experience a surgical delivery. This routine procedure is not without risks. Because it has become so commonplace, the recovery experience is often swept under the rug. If you had any other major abdominal surgery, you would be sent home with strict instructions on how to rest and recover.  With a C-Section, you are sent home with a tiny human to nourish and care for instead. These tips in 5 different areas can help you heal faster. 

NEW! You can now download the complete list of 22 tips with detailed information, video links, shopping list and more!  Best of all, it's FREE!

1. SCAR CARE

  • Moisture.
  • Epsom Salt Baths. 
  • Scar Massage. 
  • Essential Oils.
  • Mayan Abdominal Massage. 

2. EXERCISE
