I had an ELCS on Monday. Was up and about that evening. Tuesday fine, went home.

Wednesday afternoon I had and still have what I can only describe as a ball of something in my stomach causing me great discomfort & it feels like it's pulling on me every time I stand. I also have pain in my mid-lower back. I have cried about it, the only way I feel no pain is if I'm laying down.

I spoke to a GP yesterday who suggested trapped wind & upped my laxatives. So I'm poohing but the pain has not gone.

I'm really at a loss as to what is going on. I have no temp, blood pressure & pulse are fine.

Anyone been here?

I would talk to the hospital. A midwife will be better to advise than a GP in this instance.
Congratulations, I hope you feel better soon.
