For Professionals
Supporting the physical postpartum recovery of those who have experienced baby loss forms an important part of care provision after a loss. The PABL Project can help you provide options for postpartum recovery in a sensitive way through the following:
Resources for postpartum recovery after baby loss
Provide women and birthing persons with advice and guidance about early postpartum recovery that is sensitive to loss. These resources are suitable for handing out prior to discharge home at the time of loss (in line with NICE Postnatal Care guidelines), but can also be provided at a later point. The resources can be downloaded for free and then printed or sent digitally.
- Core breathing and pelvic floor exercises
- Caesarean scar massage after the loss of your baby
- Guidelines for physical activity postpartum
- POGP booklet - Exercise and advice after the loss of your baby
