What Causes Pneumonia After Childbirth?
Hello. I m pregnant with my third child. I got pneumonia 6 weeks after my second delivery. I was wondering if this was a coincidence or if I was at risk to get it again after childbirth? I had a vaginal delivery and of course, this time will hopefully be the same.

Hello,
It is not related to child birth and is a mere coincidence.
Consult a physician and start on antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
