Breastfeeding

C-Section! Early delivery - Colostrum?

Hi mums Did you manage to collect colostrum/milk before your scheduled date? Most of us had/are having earlier delivery dates so did your milk come through?

Pregnancy Week by Week: Second Trimester

Second pregnancy

Hi, I’m pregnant with my second baby and I’ve been thinking about having a planned c section. I’m very nervous as my first one was an emergency, so it’s made me so nervous for the next one. Has anyone got any tips/ suggestions how to get over this fear? x

C-section

Open incision -

Hi All. So I’m 6 weeks post emergency c section. 10 days after this I caught an infection on the incision. When I looked at my stomach I also noticed a slight hole. So I booked doctors appointment and got antibiotics and they also booked me in to get looked at by a nurse who then started the whole packing and redressing me journey. I got seen again by the nurse today as I have been going every other day to get repacked and redressed and the hole is still open. I’m wondering has anyone else been in this situation where their scar has actually opened up and how long did it take until it fully healed And is packing and redressing the only solution? My partner seems to think they are mugging me off and I should really go to the hospital now it’s been five weeks but the nurses keep reassuring me that this is the best way for my body to heal. Also has my wound opened up due to bad stitching as the nurses have made a few comments that made me think this is the case This whole recovery has been very long and very traumatic. I’m so glad this was my second and last child, just looking out for people that have been in the same or similar scenario as me.
