Det Nya Livet - Postpartum

In this video I talk about the book "Det Nya Livet" written by Maria Borda & Opokua Britton Cavaco (in Swedish) which focuses on postpartum. The book talks about postpartum traditions in different cultures and the lack of postpartum culture in Sweden.

It's good to know that there are postpartum doula. Maybe do a video on how to find a doula/breastfeeding couch, postpartum aches, and pain specialists in Sweden, and i don'thave to go through the healthcare system and feel invalidated...
From experience I felt the nurse question like, is your baby latching well or how is the baby feeding etc felt like a measure of my ability and I just said OK, but in my head I was asking myself what does that mean.

Great feedback! Yes, I can do a follow up video about this. I think when it comes to breastfeeding specifically I think education before baby arrives is so important! Then you know what to expect and have a better gauge of what is normal.
