[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope, had 2 C- sections and recovery for my second was way way easier. Like, exponentially. [/quote] Honestly, this tracks with most anecdotes I’ve heard (particularly if the first was an unplanned C.) OP — I know a lot of vaginal delivery folks who take much longer (a full year —- up to and including managing chronic injuries like prolapse and urinary incontinence for life) after delivery #2, mostly because more of the support structures in the pelvic floor have been wiped out after a second delivery. Don’t lift your toddler (you aren’t supposed to no matter which way you delivered), gentle walks, and book in with a pelvic floor pt when you are cleared for internal work. [/quote]
