5-5-5 Rule for Postpartum

The 5-5-5 rule — 5 days in bed, 5 days on the bed, 5 days around the bed — is one of the better postpartum recovery frameworks out there. This episode walks through what's physiologically happening in your body and mind during each phase, what's normal, and what's not.

In this episode:

• What the 5-5-5 rule is and where it comes from
• What's physically happening in each phase — bleeding, healing, hormones, feeding
• Normal vs. concerning signs at each stage
• Why protecting this time matters more than anything else
