TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF SO THAT YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF YOUR BABY

• You are the most important person in the world to your baby.

• You need to take good care of yourself, so you can take care of your baby.

• See your healthcare provider for your postpartum visit and interconception care.

• Use family planning (birth control).

• Wait at least 18 months after giving birth before getting pregnant again.
