I had my C Section a week ago 1/10/23. For the last couple days I've really lost my appetite and feel nauseous a lot of the time which means I'm barely eating and have noticed I keep getting a faint headache because of this.
Is this a normal after effect of the surgery or does it sound like something else?

It happened to me too, I had my c section on 18th September, and I completely lost my appetite, is just from yesterday that I feel I need to eat something, but not completely back to normal.

I've also been having diarrhea aswell and its becoming such a pain! 😩

I had my c section on the 15th September and my appetite is still very off and can barely eat much at all.
I also since suffer with intense migraines/headaches that last for days, weakness and dizzy spells. I did ask the doctors about this and they said it can be expected.
Make sure to keep an eye on your BP and bleeding if this changes contact triage asap

I had my c section back in July and this is what happened to me! I barely ate once a day and along with having a newborn I struggled to bother with eating. Your appetite does come back eventually , think mine came back after a few weeks. Congrats on your baby! 🩷
