Husband help

You definitely are not being unreasonable. I had significant pain for three months and wish I fought harder for my own recovery. Everyone is so focused on baby it was so hard being ignored and put through so much that early on. Im having a very sacred 4th trimester this time around. As socializing is the last thing I wanted to do with my postpartum hormones.

No, you are not being unreasonable at all. I was in a lot of pain with both of mine for the first couple weeks and definitely wouldn’t have wanted anyone staying or have been going out for a meal. Everyone is different, and some women will have been up and out earlier, but as you don’t know what your recovery will be like I wouldn’t be making plans or committing to anything. Just plan to be at home resting for the first few weeks.

Have him to do some research and read stories on c section recovery. I wasn’t even walking correctly for the first 3 weeks and was still in diapers. You need rest ALOT of it.

Not being unreasonable at all but every recovery is different, I’ve recovered really well both times and gone shopping / out for dinner within a week pp but I know that is very rare! I wouldn’t personally make any plans and just see how you feel in yourself & not push yourself!
