How A Mummy MOT Benefits Both You And Your Baby

A Mummy MOT is a type of postnatal assessment which offers several benefits for both a mother and their newborn.

There’s a number of reasons to book one at our clinic in London, including because it monitors your recovery after childbirth. This includes checking for any signs of infection, monitoring healing of any incisions (such as from a cesarean section), and assessing overall physical well-being.

When you’re feeling well and taking care of yourself, you’re much more likely to be able to care for your little one. 

Our team can also look at your emotional wellbeing during a Mummy MOT. 

Pregnancy and childbirth can bring about significant emotional changes. Post-natal assessments provide an opportunity to evaluate your mother's emotional well-being and offer support and resources if needed.

If you decide to breastfeed, a Mummy MOT can offer guidance and support in terms or techniques, along with addressing any concerns you may have. 

Post-natal assessments provide an opportunity for our experts to offer help on various topics related to postpartum recovery, newborn care, contraception options, and family planning.

Detect any complications early on.

Regular post-natal assessments allow healthcare providers to detect and address any complications or health concerns early on, potentially preventing them from escalating into more serious issues.

PelviCare provide a supportive environment where you can discuss your concerns. 

This can provide reassurance and guidance during the often challenging postpartum period. There’s no time limit for this type of assessment and some women have one several months or even years after giving birth.
