C section & Pooing

I had an emergency C section 10weeks ago and my bladder and bowels are fine but before I go for a poo I have a pain (almost like a period pain) and then I need to go for a poo as soon as possible - I get there in time (!) but it is more urgent than before birth. Did anyone else have this and did it improve? Thanks

not the exact same experience but my bowel movements took some time to return to normal emergency c section. I would get a period like pain pre poo but not a huge urgency. It did eventually settle , one of those things where it was always on my mind yet seemed to dissipate as weeks went by until I realised it had returned to normal. Have you mentioned to your health visitor?
