I have a terrible staph infection after giving birth just over a month ago, could it have anything to do with giving birth?

Depends...: Pregnancy and delivery by itself does not make one at risk of developing a staph infection. Staphylococcus is a very prevalent bacteria that is found on our skin, on door knobs, at the gym, and in hospitals--just to name a few! the best way to prevent a staph infection around the time of pregnancy is good hand and personal hygiene. Make sure doctors and nurses wash well before caring for you.

Sure.: What do you mean, specifically, by a "terrible staph infection"? And how do you know it is staph, specifically? Was a culture taken? If so, why was treatment not prescribed? Any infection should be addressed immediately by your doctor; call him or her right away.
