I wouldn’t wish a C-section on my worst enemy 😩😓 the trapped gas is the worst
Yes the gas is bad but make sure you take your stool softeners! Being constipated is even worse so if they didn't give you some go buy some. Keeps up with all the pain killers also and I hope you recover fast. I have had two and they do suck but after a week or two it's not so bad.
Scheduled C-sections are probably different than unplanned ones in terms of recovery. After laboring for 21 hours and pushing for 2 hours with no progress, I had a C-section. It felt like I’d run a marathon and then got run over by a Mack truck after being filleted open. Recovery was extremely rough! When people say that their C-section wasn’t bad, just know that everyone’s experience is different.
My c sections were so much better than my vaginal because I got so messed up from it. It too me years to not be in pain and I couldn’t take care of my oldest very well until she was a few weeks old. With c sections you just have to remember to stay up on your meds and don’t let it get out of control. I had to clean up dog puke all over my house when I was 5 days pp. Not fun. Walk around but don’t overdue it.
@de_michelle28, I don’t remember much gas pain. Have you left the hospital yet? Ask them if there is anything they can give you.
@singermom10, they’ve given me Gas x.. suppository.. milk of magnesia and two cups of warm apple Juice
@de_michelle28, I always 💩 when I get home. Just keep up on water and anything else that will help and when you get home it will happen and it will be gone. My bowels like shut down when I go to the hospital 😂
You know what I honestly thought about doing that ! It just hurts so bad I don’t know how I’ll get up
Thissssss!!
