Jeans post c section?

Hi y’all ! When do you start wearing jeans after a c section? I’m 3 weeks pp and really struggling to feel like myself in sweats and leggings 🥲 I bought some high waisted jeans in a size up, they fit fairly comfortably and I can move around in them. Just wondering when others started wearing tighter clothes? It doesn’t rest on my incision at all - above my belly button!

I got some jeans around 2 weeks after my section, just one pair to help me feel put together, but my body changed over the following weeks and is still changing now 4 months after.

Im 9 weeks pp and still in my joggers. I can fit in my jeans when I tried them a couple weeks ago. It made my tummy sore. Pretty sure with my others I was ba k in my jeans before now.

Only way to go is test it. Try it on a day you'll be home and wear them. That way if it starts hurting you can change them. Thats what im going to do.

I read a headline about a woman being arrested for starting a child fight club and that got me thinking...

Do you think your kid could win in child fight club? Mine could. I think that the fight club would just be him versus all the other kids.

Baby engaged 37 weeks

I was told last week at 37 weeks that baby is fully engaged and very low down by my midwife. This is my second baby and I’ve read that second time around baby usually engages later on. My midwife said she doesn’t think she will see my at my next appt (39 weeks) as she thinks the baby will come early based on this! Does this mean labour is near? Any second time mums experienced the same and did baby come early?

Baby rolling onto front in sleep

My baby has been trying to roll on his front for a while but I’ve peered over tonight and seen he has got himself on his front whilst asleep. He’s kind of mastered back to front rolling but not other way round. Am I right in saying I still have to keep rolling him back onto his back for now? X

Rolling

My baby is 4 months next week and isn’t rolling yet he is getting closer can go onto side but not quite roll over onto front yet. Just wondered whether everyone else’s babies are rolling yet?
