How did you feel after a C-section?

[Foreverboymumma]

6 days pp after having planned C-section did anybody have random symptoms after?

How random? Fluttering sensations? Sore? Didn't feel great, lots of pain.

Hope you feel okay, don't hesitate to call your midwife or the postnatal department.

I just don’t feel too great chest still feels like it’s being sat on and even still out of breath when I do stuff. Although I was bed ridden for 9 months due to a real bad pregnancy so I’m guessing it’s normal to feel like this my body is not used to standing and walking around maybe that’s why I feel so heavy in my chest midwife did visit yesterday and I mentioned but she didn’t seem too fussed?

id think being bed ridden for 9 months would be different from the c section. things like muscle waste etc will be having an effect

congratulation on your new baby

After my second section I had awful chest pain, really bad. No one seemed bothered at all. Every dr and nurse didn’t see it as a big deal. I was thinking all sorts. Until my community midwife came over once I came home, and said I was probably very bruised. I remember during the section the had to really press down on my tummy/chest to get the baby out, figured it was that that bruised me. Pain eased off eventually , take it easy and plenty of rest, easier said than done I know, congratulations by the way x
