Even before the Covid-19 pandemic, parents were « cocooning » their babies in their homes. « Cocooning » simply means protecting a newborn baby from illnesses and diseases at their most vulnerable stage.

Baby birth traditions are some of the most beautiful customs and practices around the world. India is a country full of beautiful ceremonies, traditions and culture. Baby birth traditions in India put primary importance on the baby’s firsts – first head shave, first words, first ear piercing, firsts words to hear.

The postpartum (or postnatal) period starts after the placenta is delivered. This stage lasts for 6-8 weeks while the body is returning to its normal stage. The postpartum period is a critical phase because the most life-threatening conditions for mother and baby may occur during this period.
