Abdominal pain after c section

Hi I’m just wondering if anyone has anything similar to what I’m experiencing I had a c section (planned) on the 11/01/23 my scar has healed nicely but since day 6 I have been getting abdominal pain just above my belly button it can hurt at times I’ll need to take pain relief what I do remember though is the surgeon he punched down so hard on the top off my stomach it actually took my breath away I felt sick I said to the anaesthetist what are they doing and she said oh there just trying to push the baby down she had to give me some anti sickness through my cannula it was awful the pain even though I was so numb I felt it

This will be my 3rd c section and I’ve never had that before just wondering weather that could be why I’m in pain in that area I’m going to speak to my GP Monday morning see what he thinks just thought I’d see if anyone has had the same as me after having a c section X

I ended up with quite a large haematoma after my second section which required surgery to resolve. Was bloody horrible. You should still be under midwife care so my advice would be to call your maternity assessment unit and get them to check you out.

@lookslikeabombhitit yeah I will give them a call in the morning it’s random it comes and goes through out the day x
