it depends on whether it’s natural birth or C-section. The best is to check with your doctor on the recovery of your wound and if it’s advisable to start the massage and binding.

Usually a day or so after you have returned home from the hospital...the longer you wait more wind starts to accumulate in your body

Yes. I did a day after i discharge. The lady advice me to do ASAP. She say don't do too late if not the effect wont be that good.

For first time mom its best u adapt to ur situation with little ones first the massage can be after a week.

I think better would be to start after a week as your body would still be healing and recovering

I started 1 week after delivery and for the next 10 days massage and bind continuously.

I started jamu massage and thr binding on the 4th day after delivery.

If normal delivery can start asap. I start right after giving birth.

After a week from delivery as your veins are still soft and fragile.

Once discharged from hospital. It heals faster for me
