<![CDATA[The postpartum period is a critical phase for mothers after normal delivery, characterized by uterine involution and psychological adaptation. According to the World Health Organization, the global maternal mortality rate in 2023 was estimated at 260,000 deaths. At Aisyiyah Pariaman Hospital, particularly in the PONEK ward, there were 178 cases of normal delivery, with postpartum cases ranking third among the ten most common conditions.The purpose of this study was to provide comprehensive nursing care for a primiparous postpartum mother with normal delivery to prevent complications and improve independence in self-care. This study used a case study design. The subject was a postpartum mother (Mrs. D) who was treated from February 14 to 18, 2026, in the PONEK ward. Data collection techniques included interviews, physical observation, and documentation review.The nursing problems identified included acute pain related to physiological injury agents as evidenced by complaints of perineal wound pain; ineffective breastfeeding related to inadequate milk production as evidenced by the absence of breast milk; self-care deficit related to physical weakness after delivery as evidenced by the patient not bathing and appearing unkempt; and risk of infection as evidenced by a first-degree perineal rupture. Evaluation results showed that all nursing problems were resolved.]]>
