Almost no one prepares you for after - the recovery, the hormone crash, the identity shift, on no sleep. Postpartum care has quietly become an afterthought: one rushed six-week visit, and off you go. Rooted treats it the way it deserves - as a real recovery with a real roadmap, including a one-page care timeline of exactly when to check in (your own provider by three weeks, ongoing care, a comprehensive visit by twelve weeks, etc), so you always know your next step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCould this be you?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMaybe you're bleeding and sore and not sure what's normal.
