You should pee right after sex. Going pee doesnt affect the possibilities of becoming pregnant. You need to pee as soon as you can to avoid getting a uti as it flushes the bacteria out of your urethra that gets pushed into it so it doesnt travel up into your bladder creating an infection

Wait s long as possible

You won't hurt your chances of conception if you go and pee immediately afterward. If you really want to give it a moment, consider waiting five minutes or so, then get up and pee. Still the longer you wait you increase your chances of uti and if you do get pregnant but also get a uti that can affect your pregnancy.

I had c section w my son was in hospital for four days then the dr at hospital said she wanted me to get my son to his pediatrician “tomorrow” so the very next day from leaving the hospital I had to get him out to go to dr. But we didn’t do much right after he was born went to Walmart an dr stuff like that bc I was recovering from c section myself. An didn’t want him out too much.

You can bring your baby out anytime and you can go out anytime. Outside it actually good for baby and mom

I personally didn’t go out too much after my c section because it was cold out. So I had to wait 6+ weeks bc it was in the 40s outside

My nurses told me I have to wait 24 hrs to bathe but I had an emergency C-section so I'm not sure if the same goes for you if you had a vaginal birth idk the details of your delivery. Why don't you ask a Dr about the bathing questions, ALSO-thered this drink mix and which comes in a lactation kit at Walmart. Go to the baby section, and there's actually a bunch of different lactation kits to help produce more milk, and to produce it quickly. U should look into something like the lactation kits to help you.good luck❤️

Weird how different facilities say didn't things 😥❤️❤️❤️

It's just a blood draw, and I did a urine test this time as well which is new for me but guess they test downs and stds through urine now.. I did mine last Tuesday, lab received it Wednesday, they were closed Monday for Christmas and I just got my results this morning. It will tell you your risk level for chromosomal disorders, and the gender of your baby!
