? - I was given a compression belt to wear after my csection. They told me to wear it until i felt comfortable enough to take it off. Its been almost 3 weeks now Im obviously still healing but scared to take it off. Its kinda been my security that my incesion site is safe. But at the same point I don't want to be overly cautious. Im worried ill experience more pain if i take it off. Any other people that have worn a compression belt after csection....How long did you were it for and how did you feel after not having it on?
I didnt know about it for my 1st csection with my 1st child i couldve really used it then but with my second the nurse mentioned it otherwise i wouldn't have known about it either.
@jayme wow I would have gotten one if I known about it. I had to hold my stomach Every time I got up or needed to move a certain way.
I wore mine for the first month during the day and take it off at night
For my first I wore it everyday all day even sleeping for the first 2 weeks. Then took it off once the incision got infected. My second and this one I never wore it.
@lana30319 its a belt thats fastened around your whole abdomen to provide comfort for that area & it relieves some pressure & pain in your abdomen & around your incesion site.
I never heard of a compression belt before. I had 2 c sections. What is it for?
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...
Cesarean moms...
How long did you wear an abdominal binder after your csection??

Bump pic. 14 weeks 2 days ! I'm showing alot earlier with my boy than I did with my girl !excuse the background, I'm at work, im a painter, and one of my workers said boss you're getting pudgy !! 😋😋 so I had to go take a look in the mirror!
I never had one but I'm sure if I did I'd have worn it for a few months. I'm a huge baby when it comes to that kind of stuff. I still won't look at my scar and this is the 2nd time I've had a csection
