Infection inquiry

I am 11 days post c-section, I have pretty much stopped bleeding by this point but now I think I have a bladder infection, its a sudden feeling of pain and urge to pee all the time. I didn’t have this feeling at all until this evening and I have also noticed that i have swelling on right side of my incision that goes ablit half way across the top. Its a bit red and firm but not hot. This is my first surgery and I don't want to get worked up if its just normal healing swelling.....any advice will be greatly appreciated

Not normal. I’d go in to urgent care. That all sounds like an infection. Better safe than sorry.

Contractions

Hi! I’m 37w5d. I started having terrible pressure in my perineum, pelvic pain, and back pain. I'm also having painful contractions—but my water hasn't broken. I'm using an app to monitor my contractions, and it says "Get ready." I have 5-10 minutes to get to the hospital, first time mom.
Is it time to call the hospital or stay home?🙈 I’m very stressed and don’t know what to do.

1day post emergency section

I was induced with my second child and was in the hospital for 5 days before they broke my water, after labouring for 10 hours I ended up having an emergency c section. 24 hours later I’m home and very sore. Does anyone have any tips or tricks for healing and recovery please? Feel like everything the midwives said went straight out of my head as I had been awake nearly 36 hours when I finally was taken to theatre
