Abdominal pain post c section

Hey girls I’m currently 7 weeks pp and at least 4 times I’ve experienced extreme abdominal pain that just comes out of nowhere and can go on from anywhere between 1-5hrs. It’s horrible I literally be on my hand and knees as it’s the only thing that eases the pain slightly. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Currently waiting on a GP appointment

Hey, I had this and it turned out that my left ovary had attached itself to my uterus! They can’t fully confirm via an ultrasound but could see the ovary is moved and lodged, but will only absolutely confirm with going in surgically. (That’s what urogynae told me at hospital at the time) Hope this helps?

In shock after labour

I previously shared that I was overdue and my husband’s sisters had requested to know all the detail’s of my labour, which we agreed he would simply say it was fine.

I gave birth and I still haven’t processed how traumatic it was. It ended in an emergency c section under general anaesthesia due to an infection. Being fully dilated for hours.

In a family group chat; they asked him “how was the whole ordeal?”, I haven’t read his response but he casually mentioned that he told them I had a c section.

Even just that detail alone has filled me up with rage and disgust toward him. I’m so deeply hurt that he even shared something as simple as that.

I haven’t processed it at all and it only happened today I’m just in shock and traumatised by the experience.

Need support/words of encouragement

Looking for positive stories. I am almost 3 weeks post emergency c-section and my insides still are so uncomfortable and I developed a seroma in my incision (fine otherwise but leaking a lot of fluid. Doctor said it’s not infected). I’m so tired and overwhelmed with this. I still can’t lay on my sides, and I feel so sore.

Timing contractions

Been timing for 40 mins, consistently 3-4 mins apart lasting 1 minute each, but not growing in intensity/pain. I’m drinking water and laying on my side, switching sides, etc, to see if anything stops it. So far they’re still going, but I don’t wanna waste time going to the hospital if they’re not getting more painful/intense, as of now it’s been 40 mins of the same intensity. (Mild/moderate low back/low belly cramp).

Should I go in?

This afternoon, for the past 5 hours I’ve had lower back pain that comes in waves. Along with that I occasionally get pelvic pain. I’m trying to ignore it. But I was in the hospital over night two weeks ago with issues. So I just don’t know if I should ignore it or go in since I have a history of having issues….

I am 34 weeks

C-section overhang

I know our bodies are so amazing, but I am 8months pp and I’m really struggling with the weight gain and the c-section overhang. Any else in the same boat?🥺😭
