mommies who had csection: its been three weeks today since my csection and for a few days I have been swelling and sore above my incision. its swollen and puffy. has anyone else experienced this? im kinda worried.
about a week after my csection was a spot busted open. on my incision and was draining. I went to the er bc it was bleeding a lot and they said it happens and it would drain for a few days. it finally quit oozing. and it wasnt swollen then. now its starting to swell.
Hmm I didn't know they did staples anymore I get stitches and glue... Right you can shower just not soak if it's completely closed and it's been a few days I would call the doctor in the morning it might be nothing but you never know
no. I had staples for five days then they put steri strips on. They said I could shower just not soak em in like a tub. but all the strips have fell off and the incision is completely sealed shut. its just started swelling a few days ago.
Did they give you a squirt bottle to spray it with water? You can also use a water bottle if you for have one. Then make sure you pat it dry, sounds gross but you need to lift it up a little bit and get it good and dry, you could also use a blow dryer on low, you can place a pad over the stitches after you do all of that if you want to make sure nothing touches it.. If it starts oozing or bleeding go to the doctor.
@simpsonv54, I didn't experience that. Have you been keeping it covered when showering? And not letting it rub your pants?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
yeah. I didn't know they would do staples but they did. staples then steri strips! I was so scared when they took the staples out that it would hurt. I think I will call my ob bc its seems like the swelling is getting worse.
