Sensitive bum🤷♀️
Hi
I'm 5weeks post c section, I stayed in hospital a couple of days after. I noticed my left buttock and lower back was still numb and didn't feel right so the anaesthetist saw me and reassured me things will get better with time and as my mobility improved.
5 weeks have passed now and it's not as numb (though still doesn't feel right) I get an ache in that area when sitting for longer than 10 min and my buttock just feels sensitive compared to the other one? That's the only way I can describe it.
Has anyone else experienced this and did it get any better for you?

I had exactly the same experience! I am also 10 weeks postpartum and mentioned it a couple of times at appointment but they always told me it takes time to get better. It is definitely much better but still feels weird or numb sometimes. They told me if it isn’t better within the next month then they will transfer me to somewhere, but forgot what it’s called.
Same experience. I’m 3 months post and just getting the feeling back in my buttocks. I’m in the phase where it feels like when your legs are waking from falling asleep, so super fun. I believe mine came from sitting straight on my butt after C-section for days. It was the only way my abdomen didn’t hurt lol
I’m the same, 12 weeks pp and the numb feeling has been awful! I’ve recently started getting sharp tingles around there every now and then which I assume is the nerves starting to wake up again? Definitely feels better than it did, but still feels very strange
