Why Postnatal Recovery Matters - Paperback
by Sophie Messager (Author)
During pregnancy the focus of antenatal preparation is the birth itself, and the importance of the postnatal period is often overlooked. Yet postnatal recovery (or a lack of it) can have consequences for the long-term health and wellbeing of both mother and baby. In Why Postnatal Recovery Matters Sophie Messager draws on her experience as a scientist and doula to show that thinking ahead to after the birth can get new families off to the best possible start.
Sophie left her native France in 1997 to pursue postdoctoral studies as a biology research scientist, in Aberdeen. The positive births of both her children changed her professional interest completely. She retrained to be an antenatal teacher and babywearing instructor. Sophie is a birth geek and knowledge junkie but has a more spiritual side too, she is a trained Reiki healer & teacher and a Reiki drum practitioner. Her many skills include massage, rebozo, birth & postnatal healing rituals.
