After a natural childbirth, what precautions should be noted?

Patient's question:

I'm about to give birth. What should I pay attention to during natural labor?

Doctor's answer:

First, pay attention to preventing postpartum hemorrhage. If there is significant vaginal bleeding, report to the doctor that the mother should nurse every 1-3 hours on the first postpartum day. After each feeding, the mother should pick up the baby, gently pat it a few times, to prevent it from coming to the nursing period. Pay attention to perineal hygiene, wash twice a day with a 1:5000 polypropylene solution, and adjust the diet to enhance nutrition. This period is quite critical, so expectant mothers should pay extra attention.
