New research released by maternal health brand, Lansinoh has revealed 80% of new mums1 feel they were not fully prepared for their own recovery post-childbirth.
Data reports that 85% of women2 will sustain some form of perineal trauma during vaginal delivery, yet despite this, Lansinoh’s research revealed 75% felt they were not prepared for the physical pain and recovery of the ‘fourth trimester’3.
To help support new mums during postnatal recovery, Lansinoh has launched its new Birth Preparation & Recovery range. This essential 4-step routine has been developed to help mums avoid the discomfort that comes during and after birth.
