C-section mamas

I had a c section 6 days ago and the blood loss has been minimal. 1/4 of a pad of blood.

My first c section I was filling pads and dripping blood for ages but I did have an infection.

Is this little blood loss normal?

I’ve had a c section 2 weeks back all is healing well it’s just this small part on my scar which seems to be slightly red ( not bleeding or smelly or sore) but I’ve noticed a bit of the stitch is poking out I’m ringing docs tomorrow to get them to look, just wondering if this happened to anyone else x

So I had a c section nearly 3 weeks ago and since I’ve had the dressing taken off I have notice a smell to the area. I’ve been back to see the midwife who has checked it over and said that it’s not leaking fluid and it’s not infected. I have been cleaning it several times a day with water and cotton wool that was recommended but it doesn’t seem to help. What else can I do to help with the smell? It’s my first c section and I have to say it is getting me down quite a bit 😩

I had my baby last Monday 11/03/24 and was told to take regular paracetamol & ibuprofen & was also given a small prescription of morphine which I only used as & when was needed. Ive finished the morphine but I’m still in quite some pain from trying to get out of bed, going to the bathroom & even walking is crippling me. I see my midwife tomorrow, I’m going to mention how much discomfort I’m experiencing, but just wondering if there’s a chance she would contact my gp on my behalf to prescribe me something to help with the pain during recovery? My partner works away and is returning back to work on Monday & I can’t see now I’ll manage this pain, a newborn and a toddler when I’m struggling to even pull myself up 😫

Any advice or tips such as changing all the beds the night before planning a food shop getting nails done etc?
