To drink this prosecco?

In hospital after c-section yesterday.

Have a wonderful baby boy who is currently asleep after a mammoth 2 hour feeding session. The lochia pain! Argh.

I can't take any opiate based painkillers due to allergy, so codeine /diamorphine/tramadol out. They have given me paracetamol and diclofenic, which are barely touching it. Pain!

However, a small glass of this celebratory prosecco someone brought me might take edge off....

AIBU?

You had a section yesterday and are on social media type things.Kudos to you I could barely speak.

Have a small glass.Are you in hospital still? I want a hospital that gives out prosecco Grin

Prosecco is not in order, you need the real mc coy, nothing less than decent French champagne will do. A small glass for you and your dp and I can drink the rest:)

I will be flamed for this.

You have my deepest sympathy. The post cs afterpains was some of the most horrific pain I've ever experienced.

Congratulations on your baby.

I'd drink the Prosecco personally...

YANBU. Enjoy and congratulations Wine

PacificDogwood · 13/02/2015 21:33

Congratulations! Thanks

I'd drink it too -toast the safe arrival of your new baby!

Rowanhart · 13/02/2015 21:34

Ladies, it's gone.

Once I got the first okay it was halfway down my neck. I've always bowed to peer pressure Wink

I am now lying in bed in a slightly less painful/ more happy state...

Anyone got brandy...?

After DS2's emCS at 31 weeks, DH brought some bubbly to the hospital the following day. We shared Grin
Fond memories.

Well done.... Hopefully it will help with getting your bowels working again - I swear the intestinal spasms were the worst part

Awww congrats on drinking the Prosecco

Oops congrats on your new baby too Grin

mommy2ash · 14/02/2015 00:04

im clearly the odd one out but i wouldn't drink in hospital a day after having a baby.

congrats on the baby though and i hope you feel better soon.

MistressMerryWeather · 14/02/2015 00:10

Well, OP is without the pain medication most women have after a CS, I think she is doing amazingly well. I got stronger stuff for stitches with DS2.

It's not like she is doing shots. :o

Congrats on your bah Rowan, I wish you a speedy recovery!

kippersmum · 14/02/2015 00:30

Congrats on your baby & enjoy your fizz. Quite frankly the tramadol I had after breaking my leg was way stronger than prosecco!!

FightOrFlight · 14/02/2015 00:36

Down in one!

Congratulations btw Flowers

MoanCollins · 14/02/2015 00:38

OMG, so glad you did it, you must be in so much pain and one glass won't hurt. I can't believe how brave you're being.

laughingmyarseoff · 14/02/2015 09:21

YABU, that's far too small a bottle, send someone out for another :)

Congrats OP

Dakiara · 14/02/2015 09:50

Congrats (and sympathies on the naff painkillers - was only given paracetamol here too, should see pain get better by third day if that helps any. X)!
