This is my body 1 week post partum. I’m so happy all the fluid build up is slowly going away.
As for healing, I never knew nor read up on how painful recovery is for emergency c sections. I feel like it’s not really talked about — It’s major abdominal surgery! I’m sure a lot of mums out there can relate to me. I’m seriously struggling trying to heal myself while caring for Baby Chalmers at the same. Just general day-to-day activities of walking up my apartment stairs, getting in and out of bed ( I have a low set bed), showering, going to the toilet, the back ache, the fevers, general walking (I’m shuffling at the moment), picking baby Chalmers up from his crib at night, bending down to feed my dog... the list goes on. It’s tough and I just have to get through these next couple of weeks 😓. #csectionrecovery #csection #birth

I had a c-section too and I know the pain is very real, you’ll get through it and it will pass, hang in there! It started to get better for me from 3 weeks onwards. I built up strength from walking first and enjoying the feeling of being outside again and a tad more independent ! Two surprising thing I noticed: my tummy was numb above the scar and stayed numb for almost a year. 2 years later now almost all the feeling has come back. The second thing is that when my (now ex-husband) tried to push for sex about 6-8 weeks afterwards, it actually really hurt inside to even attempt this. He didn’t believe me but it’s true. Even I thought it was strange given I didn’t have a natural birth so why would it hurt... but if you google it, there’s reasons for it!! It takes a lot of time to heal but looking back, I’d say from when I stopped b/feeding my son at 14months, I started to feel most like myself again and that’s also when the the baby weight slowly started melting off as I started intermittent fasting. Everyone is going to be different though, I’m just sharing my experience in case it helps, even just with expectations - recovery is often slower than what we initially expect, but in hindsight it actually becomes a distant memory and it’s worth it for our little bundle. it does get easier once they start sleeping more and/or your body just learns to adapt. It’s incredible how resilient we are ❤️ You’ll be ok! Take all the help you can get when it’s offered just to get through this initial period! It’s one of the hardest. Hope your partner is really helping you as much as possible in being a team player. This is when support is truly a necessity. Sending you lots of positive vibes xx

You look so beautiful @biancamaycheah!! C-section recovery is tough!! It’s like when you burn your finger you didn’t realise how much you use it and same for abdominals you use it for EVERYTHING!! After any other abdominal surgery there is down time and mandatory rest but after a c-section you are expected to now be this perfect mumma. I had a twin birth and had both natural for twin A and c section for twin B so from on c-section mumma to another; take it easy!! Ask for so much help even if it’s passing a drink of water, make sure you move but move slow and tmi but make sure you poop!! You will highly regret it if you don’t trust me!! 😬 wishing you well xx

Yes I can relate the most painful thing is that I couldn’t carry my 2 years old son it’s not allowed to carry heavy things except the baby I cried coz I couldn’t take care of him and now 3 months later I’m fine ? everything will be fine you well be yourself again just walk as much as you can I mean few steps at home try to avoid stairs eat healthy food drink a lot of water and give your body a rest when your baby is sleeping don’t worry I used to think that I could never do what I used to do before surgery and now everything is ok ??

Yes! C-Sections are NO JOKE. I’ve had 2 now. It’s amazing how much better you’ll feel after about 2 weeks, but I can truly say my core has never fully recovered (my girls are 2 & 4 now). There’s still numbness around my incision site, and I still struggle to engage my core fully when exercising. But goodness, these babies are worth it!

It is super hard being mother to a newborn even when you’ve had a relatively straight foward natural birth ! Sending you lots of love and strength. Making it through these tough trying weeks is such a challenge but it doesn’t last long at all, then you look back and wish you had your tiny peanut baby again ☺️♥️
