Anyone else have a C-section?

Any other mamas have a C-section and have that tummy hangover? I’m 6-7 weeks postpartum and my belly still feels big but the tummy hangover is just awful :/

I had my second c-section 6 weeks ago & my c-section “shelf” is AWFUL this time around 😩

I’ve been wearing my belly support band since being released and still do at 5 weeks pp. Not sure how much that plays into it, but you can’t even see my “shelf” when I have my underwear covering it. It looks like a barely there pooch that I’m hoping will get even flatter once I’m allowed to start working out again.

If you don’t currently have a supper wrap, highly recommend getting one. One I was given has their website claiming some women wear them up to a year postpartum.

C - section

Hello lovelies, I’m getting closer to my date of c section.

Can I ask how it all went for you? I felt prepared and now I have this awful feeling what if I bleed out! I’m sure that’s not the case. But I just wondered how it went, and how the aftermath was. I have seen on social media people say it’s horrendous but then I speak to friends and family and they’re like yeah it’s not easy but you can cope! You can walk, etc. I think it’s the unknown… lol!

Also were you all sick during your procedure and did you all get terrible trapped gas? If so what tips do you have xx

This is a bit strange.. but hear me out

I am 36 weeks and 4 days today.
I had that feeling, you know when you are trying to take a tampon out on your end of period and it kind of hurts because the tampon is dry? I had that sensation today?

Now I feel like I have to push something about my vagina? It kinda tickles but uncomfortable. I’m not having any pains at all anywhere btw so can’t be baby ??
