[quote=Anonymous]Plan to be in bed/limited activity, minimize moving for 1-2 weeks. Walking to and from the bathroom, general house movement is fine. Dont vacuum or load dishes or try to do stroller walks - especially on hills. Dont push [u]anything[/u] for a few weeks. BC you are still recovering pushing tends to bear down and exacerbate PF issues. I overdid it the first time and paid for it for months afterward. Just rest and recuperate. Learn scar massage. Learn a few gentle exercises for post C-section starting in weeks 4-6. Belle Method is great for this. Make sure you have a pillow to brace against. Keep a thick pad/cushion on your stomach if you side-lie nurse. Little baby kicks can get you![/quote]
