In a context in which 61.9 % of mothers with children under 1 year Challenges for women.
According to data, the vital Statistics Rapid Release of the National Statistics System (NVSS) of the United States, Hispanic and Asian women were the only ones who experienced increases in birth rates from 2023 to 2024, with increases of 4% and 5% respectively, while in the case of non -Hispanic white women a decrease of less than 1% was observed.
These figures reflect not only a demographic transformation, but also the social and labor impact generated by motherhood in diverse groups.
“Back to labor routine in addition to performing household chores when the body is still recovering from pregnancy and childbirth, can reduce energy, concentration and emotional and physical well -being. It is not surprising that many mothers feel overflowing,” says Lizeth Cuara, CEO of Misty Phazes, designer of specialized products in postpartum care.
Why is postpartum preparation key?
– Incomplete physical recovery:
The body is still adjusting after childbirth, and the work demand can intensify abdominal and lumbar pain.
– Emotional loads:
Separate from the baby, the pressure to be paid and the guilt are common factors that raise the level of stress.
– Breastfeeding and adaptation:
Breastfeeding management in the work environment requires support, adequate spaces and self -care strategies.
Postpartum tips
Given the main challenges faced by mothers, Mistyphass specialists recommend the following postpartum tips for a healthier return to work:
– Use specialized postpartum belt:
By offering abdominal and lumbar support, pain decrease and generate greater security, especially after a caesarean section. It is recommended to be used 6 months after a little more than a year, since postpartum physical recovery can vary from 6 to 8 weeks for the uterus, between 6 weeks to 6 months for the pelvic floor and between 6 months to just over a year for abdominal muscles (Recti diastasis).
– Use Panty with medical grade silicone strips:
In addition, helping with recti diastasis by favoring the closure of the abdominal space after pregnancy, help fading stretch marks and scar in case of caesarean section.
– Cold and heat therapy:
Alternating cold and hot compresses helps to deflate the caesarean section, relieve low back pain and decongest the breasts during breastfeeding.
– Scheduled rest:
Incorporating brief pauses for stretching and mental relaxation helps improve concentration and reduce chronic fatigue.
– Support network:
Have advice from health professionals and mothers groups facilitates emotional management and the exchange of self -care practices.
The well -being of each new mother not only impacts directly on the health of the baby and the family, it also promotes their professional productivity, so Lizeth Cuara has focused on designing specific solutions for the needs of each mother and her recovery process.
