Hi,you know the Duchess of Cambridge have given birth to a boy.It's a big happy to everyone .I read a news and here has a sentence"Is the Duchess of Cambridge prepared for the post-partum quarterbacking?"

I agree with Randy. The quarterback on an American football team directs the play of the team. Post-partum quarterbacking would mean directing the new parents what to do with their baby.

I believe their meaning refers to all the well-meaning, unsolicited advice she is already receiving. The use of the term here is not too clear.
