Body has never felt the same after C-Section

Hi All,

Wondering if anyone can help me or guide me here.
I had an emergency C-Section almost 21 months ago. Baby is fine and the initial recovery was good, but my insides have never really felt the same since. I didnt get a period for almost months and when I did I was floored with extremely heavy bleeding and PMS but thankfully that has tapered off and my cycle seems to have reverted to before I had the baby. I always have dull aches in my lower abdomen, especially on the right hand side and I am plagued with IBS flare ups. I had an abdomen, pelvic and transvaginal scan back in January and nothing showed up except some fatty deposits on my liver.

I am overweight at the moment and working on weight loss, I have an unsightly large overhang, pre pregnancy I had a pot belly but it has escalated out of control over the last while. I dont know if the aches and pains are from weight gain or if I am imagining them some days, driving myself insane!

I get really bad ovulation cramps and I am also wondering if they are just there until AF arrives.

Any help would be much appreciated xx
