In this episode, Founder of Hearth Healing, Laura Williams, talks about postpartum care after leaving the hospital.

Today, Laura talks about the harms of finding generalized information online, setting postpartum expectations, and optimizing care to the mother and the baby. What is the difference between common and normal occurrences in the postpartum period?

Hear about virtual postpartum healing, the outcomes of Laura’s virtual consulting, and get Laura’s advice to her younger self, all on today’s episode of The Healthy, Wealthy & Smart Podcast.

 

Key Takeaways

  • “There isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach to recovery, and we need individualized information.”
  • “The key that unlocks that resilience is knowledge.”
  • “There should be an equal attention to both the baby and to the patient.”
  • “It may not be life-threatening, but it can still threaten your quality of life.”
  • “Giving people knowledge can help them move forward in a meaningful way.”
  • “Imposter syndrome is real but don’t take your knowledge for granted.”
  • “Be brave.”

 

More about Laura Williams

Laura Williams is a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) and Board-Certified Women’s Health Clinical Specialist. She lives and practices in Salida, CO, with her husband, 3-year-old daughter, and second child on the way.

Laura founded Hearth Healing, a 100% virtual postpartum healing service, in 2022, as a pelvic health consultant. Though not a substitute for in-person healthcare, postpartum healing consultation should be viewed as a vital way to bridge the gap in maternal care. People deserve information about how to improve symptoms that impact their quality of life after childbirth, without having to wait months, or feel limited by lack of childcare or transportation.

At Hearth, Laura provides individualized answers to postpartum healing questions, early healing strategies, self-management advice, and guidance on appropriate resources, products, and providers.

In this episode, Founder of Enhanced Recovery After Delivery, Rebeca Segraves, talks about physical and occupational therapy care after childbirth.

Today, Rebeca talks about why this work is important, the ideal OT-PT-patient ratio, and the major mental health component. What should PTs and OTs be assessing in a person after childbirth in the hospital?

Key Takeaways

  • “Change is going to be person-driven.”
  • “Don’t leave the hospital without an OT, without a PT consult.”
  • “Get out and have some fun.”
