Postpartum Care & Family Planning

Support That Continues Beyond Birth — Because You Still Matter

At Enrich Health, we know that care shouldn’t stop once the baby is born. In fact, the postpartum period — often referred to as the “fourth trimester” — can be one of the most physically and emotionally challenging times in a mother’s life. That’s why we offer comprehensive postpartum care in Hamden, CT, centered on healing, support, and guidance that honors both your recovery and your future goals.

Whether you’ve just delivered or are months into the postpartum journey, our team is here to listen, guide, and help you feel whole again — not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually as well.

Postpartum Support That Centers Black Mothers

Black women are more likely to experience postpartum complications, yet less likely to be heard when they ask for help. At Enrich Health, we are changing that narrative. Our postpartum care model is rooted in cultural competence and trauma-informed support, thoughtfully designed to reflect the lived experiences of Black mothers and to serve all women with respect, dignity, and understanding—regardless of their background.

We know that your health, your healing, and your story don’t end at birth — they continue, and they matter.

What Our Postpartum Care Includes

We take a holistic approach to recovery and family planning. Our care includes:

  • Physical healing assessments and guidance after vaginal or C-section birth

  • Monitoring for complications such as high blood pressure, infection, or bleeding

  • Mental health screenings and support for postpartum depression or anxiety

  • Breastfeeding support

  • Pelvic floor and sexual health check-ins

  • Contraceptive counseling after pregnancy

  • Customized birth control options that reflect your goals and comfort level

  • Support with sleep, nutrition, and daily transitions

We recognize that healing is not one-size-fits-all. Whether you want support within a few weeks of giving birth or you're navigating postpartum challenges months later, our team is here.

Postnatal Care + Contraceptive Management = Complete Support

Family planning after pregnancy is personal — and you deserve to understand your options in a safe, nonjudgmental space. Whether you're thinking about spacing your next pregnancy, are done growing your family, or simply need time to decide, we’re here to help you take control of your reproductive future.

Our providers offer:

  • Counseling on hormonal and non-hormonal options

  • Long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARC)

  • Short-term and emergency contraception

  • Natural family planning guidance

  • Support for breastfeeding-safe options

We approach contraceptive care as part of your full healing journey — not as an afterthought.

Healing with Community

Enrich Health offers virtual and in-person postpartum group visits and wellness sessions, with one-on-one care as needed, tailored to support mothers. These spaces allow you to share, connect, and heal alongside others who understand what you're experiencing.

We also collaborate with doulas, lactation consultants, and therapists to ensure your care is complete — because postpartum isn’t just physical. It’s personal, emotional, and deeply individual.
