Upper abdominal pain post c-section

First time poster! My LG is 8 months old, since about 1 month PP I have had severe upper abdominal pain, to the point of throwing up, I bloat to an extreme level and tend to end up throwing up until I get to acid bile.

I’m under investigation, but I was talking to another Mama and she is suffering with the same thing, the pain is debilitating and only tends to happen at night.

I was wondering if any post c-section mama’s have had this and if so what was the cause because I feel very stuck!

Sounds more like a gallbladder issue than anything to do with a C-section.

It could be trapped wind. I had this on my first c section and it was horrific. The pain even went into my shoulders.

Peppermint tea. Lots of it.

I’ve been checked for gallbladder, as has the other mama!

I genuinely thought this at first too, but the only things that seem to resolve it are seriously strong painkillers and throwing up :(
