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!

Exactly the same here, first thing in the morning and last thing at night. I said to my partner it's worse than when I was heavily pregnant. Also starting to struggle with my daily walks.

Yes! I really struggle with going down the stairs in the night or first thing in the morning, I feel like an 80 year old woman! My legs/feet feel like they’re going to buckle 🙈 I’m 15 weeks post c section now!

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?

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?)

23 weeks!❤️

I am 23 weeks today! I have an anterior placenta but have felt baby everyday and can see her when she does big kicks. I wanted to ask any mums that have done this before, regardless of placenta position, when starting to track a pattern, is the just “a little movement” or like big movements? Does that even make sense 😅 - I guess what I am feeling is only going to get stronger, but I am just curious how often it can become? Ahah thanks ❤️
