: I'm not sure if "postnatal" can be used for the mother also? My impression it's only for babies? But from your resource it appears to make sense.

Center of nurturing women after childbirth for one month
I think it is traditional for Chinese women in being confined and nurtured in the month following their childbirth. Nowadays such centers are quite popular in large cities.

Thank you. I think it works, too. However, postpartum is a medical term and may not be very popular.
