Side sleeping after c section?

When did you go back to sleeping on your side after a c section? What helped make this more comfortable?

I have always been a side sleeper and have struggled to sleep on my back since my c section 7 weeks ago. I have been lying on my back, propped up with cushions since then.

I feel a tugging sensation when laying on my side. It’s not painful but it’s also not very enjoyable when trying to sleep. What helped make side sleeping more comfortable for you?

Body agony

Anyone else suffer with immense pain when getting up in the morning? I am 11 weeks post c section and wake up in so much pain! I understand my hands, arms and shoulders from holding a big baby (she is huge) but my hips, knees and even feet as well!?! It’s like when I was heavily pregnant again!

Movement

I’m 21 weeks today and I’ve felt baby’s movement since 12 weeks.
Around I’d say 17 weeks they started getting stronger kicks, rolls etc.
I’ve realised my baby responds a lot to their dad’s voice but I’m currently away from him at the moment.
Since I’ve been away baby has been so quiet only really in one period a day so really late at night.
Anybody else experienced baby being so a tune to their fathers voice or a change from stronger longer periods of kicking to being fairly quiet?
Guess I’d just like to hear some reassurance if anybody else has experienced similar. 🫶🏼

Should I go to hospital???

Im 32 weeks and 4 days, this is my 3rd kid and Im on alot of pain. Not contractions but more like cramping pain to the point Im crying and I wouldn't necessarily say Im short of breath but I have to keep like deep breaths with my mouth to get enough air, if that makes sense? And im just not sure if I should go to the hospital or not.

C-section healing

What are c-section moms using for the incision long term, the pouch and loose skin on the stomach area( Or does it never go back to what it looked like before?)
