Walking after C-Section

Have you had pelvic floor therapy?

If you dont have access to one the Belly Whisper Online program is great

In under a month , the nurses scolded me for not walking after surgery in the hospital. I’m like I can barely hold my bladder . Apparently it gives you blood clots so they encourage you to be active , within reason .

My first: I was fine, I had a little bit of a limp due to nerve damage from spinal surgery years ago, but that went away after a week or so

My second: I was hunched over walking for maybe a month. I had a blood transfusion after having her, so I was just terribly week after, and would barely hold myself up

When you say "normally" do you mean like 100% normal or just like unassisted? I would say i was walking relatively well within 3 days but still had discomfort and weakness for a couple weeks

I honestly I started walking normally like three weeks after yes I was still sore but I was able to walk straight. But I also used the binder ( think. That’s what it’s called )to help me

It took 3 and a half weeks for all my swelling to be back to normal, then I was walking normal again

This is giving me hope. I got discharged after 1 day in hospital and at home on the second day I thought I was dying. I could barely walk. Its now the morning of the 3rd day and I feel slightly better so it's good to know that is normal. I was starting to worry.

I started walking once the catheter was removed. Took a few steps in the hospital
When i got home I kept walking around the house all the time (it was the only comfortable thing anyway)

Within a week, I wasn’t hunching my back anymore
