Childbirth includes different stages, and in every stage, the mother plays a unique role in experiencing the important events that occur throughout her journey. The different stages are broadly classified into three main aspects namely Antenatal period, Intranatal period and Postnatal period [3]. Postnatal period is the most vulnerable period for the mother and the newborn baby. The extent of postnatal health problems warrants close attention.
