The personal answer stays with a healthcare professional who knows the reader's case, and this guide uses the reference for recovery record, postpartum warning signs, postpartum headache warning signs source wording. In a grocery or food-safety decision, the useful move is to connect the source language to a real call, message, visit, or support task. That gives CDC Hear Her a narrow role: vocabulary and boundaries, not a verdict for one pregnancy.
