Bowel movements after C-section

So sorry if this is tmi but has anyone else’s bowel movements completely changed after a C-section? I’m 3 weeks pp and usually go for a number 2 two / three times a day (at least once in the morning and once in the evening), but since having my C-section I can only go once a day. It’s making me feel really bloated! Recently it’s been where I can only go in the morning but it’s now changed to only being able to go once at night. Has anyone else experienced changes and did it ever go back to normal?

I used to go every 2/3 days. I’m ten months postpartum and after baby I started to go every day and still am. I found it every stressful in the early days and was crying to my husband ‘how can people do this once everyday, it’s so much effort’ but also it was going from nothing to if I don’t get upstairs now I’m pooping my pants.
