[quote=Anonymous]I had a planned c-section in my late 30s for medical reasons. I felt the recovery went about as smooth as possible. The first day was rough, but I started walking around on day 2, taking it slow but a little longer each time. I felt pretty good after 5 days, then even better around 2 weeks post-op. But after that I sort of plateaued and any more improvement was very gradual. I didn’t feel 100% until many months later. Like PP, I would also suggest staying on top of your meds! Also look into a belly binder. I wore them when walking around and thought it helped to hold everything together. We’re TTC for #2 now and seeing a RE. They saw a c-section scar when I had my HSG. It’s unclear at the moment if that is contributing to us having trouble conceiving again.[/quote]
