I am 5 weeks pp of a first time C-section. A buddy of mine is having a cook out/pool party tomorrow and I REALLY wanna swim. 😣 especially since it's been 90+ degrees lately 😩😥 now I know they say wait 6 weeks and you shouldn't if your still bleeding heavy and blah blah etc. But when I went to my 2 week check up my doctor told me I was already healing up extremely well for a first time cesarean and my bleeding has stopped for about a week now. I have no problems or pain with my scar really, it seems completely healed to me. I'm just nervous about the possibility of maybe getting an infection or something due to the chlorine in the pool. I should be okay right? I mean I've heard of mom's that went swimming and took baths 2-3 weeks after their surgery and were just fine and I've been taking it real slow and easy as to not hurt or strain myself so I can heal properly. What do you guys think? I'm seriously contemplating whether I should or not cause I'd hate to be the only person at the party sitting on the sideline while everyone else is having a good time 😔

@mimiz, yeah I do that everytime I get out the shower as well just to make sure there's no openings or anything. I felt fine at 2 to 3 weeks too so I hope I'm okay.

Also I was glued, so there's no stitches or staples still in or need to be removed.

Honestly I was fine 3 weeks after healed and doing everything normally as long as it isn't opened anywhere if say go for it but check with alcohol first to see if it bothers
