At last your baby has arrived, and you're experiencing all the joys that come with being a new mom. But you may not have bargained on acne and enlarged feet, not to mention constipation, vaginal pain, mood swings, or perhaps one of the more serious conditions that pregnancy can trigger. So what can you do to deal with all these unexpected challenges? In this guide, Dr. Jennifer Wider, a physician as well as a mother, delivers up-to-date medical information, candid answers to a host of questions, and expert advice on a range of postpartum issues, including: sex and intimacy after pregnancy-physical and mental roadblocks; marital stresses and strains; how to safely lose weight and exercise; breast-feeding concerns; when the baby blues are more than just a phase; coping with thyroid problems, anemia, diabetes, urinary incontinence, and other conditions that can show up during or after pregnancy.--From publisher description.
