[quote=Anonymous]Which hospital are you going to? I had 2 C-sections, one 4 years ago and one 2 years ago at 2 different DC hospitals. In both cases I got a prescription for 30 days oxy (or 30 tablets? Idk) that I never took. They put me on Motrin and Tylenol combined at the hospital and that was plenty, until I made a stupid mistake postpartum and overdid it with holding my first child postpartum. That causes the scar intensely for days.

Several things :
1) get the belly binder 
2) there's a proper way to get out of bed, kind of going sideways than pushing straight up.
3) going the stairs down backwards helps
4) really don't lift. Teach your older children how to get into the car seat, the booster chair, etc ahead of time.

The second 2section was way better than the first since I knew what I got myself into, even though it was a failed vbac. I'm not sure what to recommend to you, I'm not sure if really matters that much. Both have advantages and disadvantages and it's just not clear beforehand what's better. [/quote]
