Had my c section on Monday- it was elective
They left catheter in over night so my first movement was Tuesday morning. I felt like I was going to rip in two when I stood up. The pain was like no other. Gradually it's getting better, Tuesday evening I could get in and out of bed on my own - it was hard but I could do it.
Yesterday I came home at about tea time. I'm keeping on top of my pain relief but one side of my stitches is sore is this normal? Feels like im constantly pulling on it!
Furniture at home isn't as friendly as hospital furniture - I'm struggling to get in and out of bed
Weirdly I feel better being on my feet and pottering around but I'm worried about over doing it
Id love to know people's recovery experiences and tips !!
