3 months post c section

Hi! Did anyone still have a fair bit of tenderness in the stomach 3 months on post c section? Also I feel 100 years old when I get up in the morning - despite getting OK sleep. Just sore everywhere!! I haven't start exercising yet so that probably isn't helping. My husband says it's because I'm carrying a baby around all day. Also I still feel swollen and blah and like my organs haven't return to their normal place 😜... but I know that is probably mostly weight gain.

Didn't experience any of this with my first c section but I was 3 years younger and exercising more regularly pre and during pregnancy!

Anyway I will see my obstetrician about all of this - but just curious to chat to others!

Hey. 6 months post second section here and still tender too. I had a long standing infection so that’s probably partly to blame! I don’t remember feeling this way after my first either haha. Maybe it’s being a mum of two in general ha. Hope you get sorted x

I’m 4 months post section and have some tenderness around the scar. Also feel 100 years old sometimes lol but think that’s just life with 2 kids!

I'm nearly 3 months post partum c section and I still feel quite tender and parts are numb. Second c section and a second incision as well as they didn't use the first incision as it was too close to my bladder. First c section was 9 years ago and I'm older now, so feels like it's taking longer to recover and it will do, major surgery. 100 per cent don't feel like myself.
