How many meals a day during postpartum recovery?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Generally, there are four to five meals during the day and one to two at night. At the beginning, it might be more frequent, but later on, it should be less so. Eat until you're about seven-tenths full, with a focus on soft foods. Postpartum women should prioritize light, low-fat, and low-salt meals.
