After labor time
My first advice is to get plenty of rest. I know, you just became a mom and you're very excited about the new baby. You are ready to care for him/her and can't wait to do all the baby stuff you've dreamed of for 9 months. There will be plenty of time for that. You need a lot of rest after a delivery, whether it was natural or C-section, because your body has gone through an unbelievable shock. You may not realize it but you've lost a lot of blood, most of your nutritional sources have been utilized to create, form and grow your baby inside and you are very weak. Also eat a healthy diet rich in nutrients and drink plenty of water. You need to recuperate quickly so that you can care for your newborn.
