THE MESSAGE
God spoke to Moses: "Tell the People of Israel, A woman who conceives and gives birth to a boy is ritually unclean for seven days, the same as during her menstruation. On the eighth day circumcise the boy. The mother must stay home another thirty-three days for purification from her bleeding. She may not touch anything consecrated or enter the Sanctuary until the days of her purification are complete. If she gives birth to a girl, she is unclean for fourteen days, the same as during her menstruation. She must stay home for sixty-six days for purification from her bleeding.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Lord spake unto Moses,.... The laws in the preceding chapter were delivered both to Moses and Aaron, but what follows in this only to Moses; but inasmuch as the priest had a concern in it, it being his business to offer the sacrifices required by the following law, it was no doubt given to Moses, to be delivered to Aaron, as well as to the people. R. Semlai remarks, that as the creation of man was after that of the beasts, fowls, fishes, &c. so the laws concerning the uncleanness of men are after those relating to beasts, &c, and they begin with the uncleanness of a new mother, because, as Aben Ezra observes, the birth is the beginning of man:
saying: as follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
This chapter would more naturally follow the 15th chapter of Leviticus. See the note to Leviticus 15:1.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible

after the birth of a son, who is to be circumcised the eighth
day, 2, 3.
The mother to be considered unclean for forty days, 4.
After the birth of a daughter, fourscore days, 5.

for a sin-offering, 6, 7.
If poor, and not able to bring a lamb, she was to bring either
two turtle-doves or two young pigeons, 8.
