My Optimal C-Section Healing Protocol: Minimize Scarring, Rebuild Core Strength, Heal Trauma, and Use Functional Mushrooms Safely Postpartum – AMA

I dive into whether lion's mane is safe while breastfeeding, the essential steps to naturally heal a C-section scar, the emotional and physical toll of unplanned C-sections, and share holistic, science-backed tips every mom should know.
