Has anyone had a drain after a c-section? If so, do you know why it was put there? I had my section 9 months ago and was in the recovery ward with another lady who had a drain in hers. The scream she let out when the nurse removed it still leaves me cold when Ii think about it. I could also hear the nurse explain to her why she didn't tell her beforehand how painful it would be, as she thought it was best to get it over with without the patient anticipating that much pain. I'm having another baby in march and plan a c-section and want to avoid a drain if possible -does anyone know anything about them?
Thanks
