The author has written three papers on the subject of postnatal care: this first paper reviews the changes in post natal care which have occurred in the last half century and outlines what he feels should be the ideal care of the new mother and her baby.
This second paper by the author presents an experienced obstetrician's viewpoint of a very practical and perhaps provocative approach to postnatal care, especially considering the rights and emotional factors of the new parents.
The final article in a three-part series (the first two appeared in AFP May) deals with practical problems of the puerperium in a sensitive way. The author emphasises that a doctor should be aware of the possible problems and should be readily available to the postnatal patient.

Good obstetric care begins with good antenatal care. The aims of antenatal care are no different from the general aims of obstetrics; namely, to produce a healthy baby, which is breast-fed by its healthy mother.
