tubal ligation after c section

I had a c-ection 1 week ago & tubes tied at the same time. Am still having really sharp pains at both sides of my uterus - is this where tubes were cut or normal c-section pain? Also my scar is a good 20cm, much larger than I was expecting, is this also due to the tubal ligation?(baby was sideways so may have been because of how she was lying?)

wads. i had a c section with my dd 16 weeks ago.i was in alot of pain afterwards, i had really sharp pains too. rest as mush as you can as this can make your recovery worse and longer than normal. I didnt have my tubes tied so I am not sure on this,but i was in alot of pain for a number of weeks. my scar is about 10cms so maybe yours is down to the way your baby was born?

no advice sorry, I would ask your midwife and get a doctor to check for any infection. Look after yourself, dont do anything unnecessary iykwim.

i'd call the midwife.....just to be on the safe side....also, scar always looks bigger when it is just been done,,,
