Center of nurturing women after childbirth for one month


Explanation:
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.

agree  Fang Sheng: 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.
