PP symptoms and recovery

Hey Mamas I had an emergency c section I was planning an at home birth and found out my baby was breech which resulted in an emergency c section. Im 5 weeks PP and still have some pains and pinching sensation around the scar. When did everyone start massaging and mobilizing the scar tissue. I also feel like sore just from holding my baby so much and having his resting on my stomach, is this the same for you?

I’m my third c section in I didn’t know about massaging or mobilizing scar? What does that look like? Do you know how it helps? Also, to answer your question in my experience it took me about 8 weeks for the pain to totally be gone, but each was alittle different I’d definitely bring it up to your ob at your 6 week appointment

I had emergency c-section too. The pain was brutal around abdomen. Getting out/ in to the bed, using toilet, squaring, sitting to standing. I was so scared if the incision site will open with the pain that I was in. I managed pain with Advil and Tylenol. I personally didn’t massage into the scar tissue or anything related to my scar. I didn’t want to irritate the healed incision.
