I had a c section 6 days ago and currently when I go to sleep I wake up disoriented. Im not sure if its tiredness, the effects of medication and anesthesia or just postpartum issues. It feels so weird and awful that I am afraid to go to sleep. Anyone else felt weird that way?

I did for ages. I was taking dihydrocodeine which was making me feel like that, along with tiredness and low iron and blood levels x

hope it got better for you. I really hope I feel back to normal soon

I managed to have a really good sleep once I got home (like 6hrs in one stretch) and stopped the meds and it helped massively! Xx

I did too. Mixed with sleep deprivation. It was the dihydrocodeine which did it for me so I stopped it when I got home and alternated paracetamol and ibruprofen. I was hallucinating seeing ants walking in our hallway 🤣. Xxxx

i had it to it’s the worst but normal from what i’ve read

I did it with codeine x

I had my C section 7 days ago and this is exactly how I feel. I am so happy I came across this post. I have been so scared , it helps to know I am not alone
