Stomach upset after C-section

[CJ2010]

I'm 12 days post c-section and I've been experiencing awful diarrhoea for the past few days, it could be a totally separate thing but I was wondering if it's just my body's way of clearing all the drugs that were pumped into my system? I don't normally get stomach upsets so I'm curious to know if others have experienced this?

hi, yeah i had similar! think its normal. soon settled down though, just ate really bland food till then. congrats on new baby!!

More likely to be the rummaging in the bowels they do! Yes, I had an upset tummy, too.

What pain meds are you taking?

I'm not taking anything now but I was taking paracetemol.

OK just checking. I was given anti inflammatories which gave me ulcers, which was mega serious. That's why I asked. Paracetamols won't be causing the pain / upset stomach.

Check with your GP after a few days if things don't get better, but I think the stomach gets so pushed around during pregnancy that it is normal to be a little upset.

Hi, I had the oppposite actually, was completely bunged up and had to take Fybogel to get me going again. Hope you get better soon!
