After eight years of successful development and thousands of happy parents, "Dr. Shterev" Medical Complex officially opened its renovated maternity ward. The maternity package of the most established family he alth center in Bulgaria is the bearer of one idea - to provide maximum care and comfort to pregnant women during the most precious moment for a couple and family - the birth of a new life.
Don't let what your mother thinks happen to you
You don't need to be a specialist psychologist to know that fear is greater when we face something unknown. Most people have experienced this cognitive phenomenon. The more familiar we are with something, the more prepared we are to handle the situation. Knowing the situation and the specific steps a pregnant woman will go through is one of the best ways to reduce her feelings of anxiety. The human brain is designed in such a way that, faced with the unknown, the individual "predicts" all possible scenarios for the development of the situation. Mothers also act in this way when they are worried about what happens to their children when they are not together. The explanation is very simple. It is an evolutionary process that has developed over millennia to help people anticipate the dangers that lie ahead. Therefore, psychologists advise pregnant women to visit the AH center chosen for their birth in advance and familiarize themselves with the steps on the way to a new life.
Dr. Shterev Medical Complex is one of the most established family he alth centers where you can give birth. If you want to see the wonderful conditions for childbirth and postpartum stay in the Complex, you can visit the "Open Day" initiative in the maternity ward, which is organized every second and last Thursday of the month from 4:00 p.m.
In addition, you can visit the courses of the School for future parents, which are held every month on three consecutive Saturdays.

The secret of a good attitude is the detail

Even if you go to the Complex with only your ID card, the necessary additional accessories and cosmetics are provided for the mother and the baby. If the patients wish, both partners can stay in the specialized VIP rooms. Usually the "holiday" in the maternity ward lasts between 3-5 days. Mothers are examined daily by an obstetrician-gynecologist, and babies by a neonatologist. Every mother needs a good mentor to make sure she is doing the best for her child. That is why the specialists in the maternity ward individually help each woman in labor to get used to the first care of the little ones. For women who are not in private rooms, a breastfeeding room with a specially equipped nursing chair is provided."We try to have the mother not only observe, but also participate in the care of the baby. This is how she feels comfortable, and we are her mentors and friends. This "training" includes the entire outfit of the baby and the first care for him", explained the Medical Complex "Dr. Shterev.
In the complex, women's care enhances ordinary domestic comfort. Physiotherapy care is provided for all mothers in labor - a special rehabilitation program for recovery in the first days after childbirth. The discharge of the newborn turns into a family celebration in the special hall of the "Dr. Shterev" Medical Complex. There, relatives and friends of the family can take remarkable photos of the little man and offer their congratulations. The discharge hall is divided into two - a cocktail area and a cozy corner that resembles home charm. All that remains for loved ones is to provide more space on their cameras to capture precious memories forever.
