[quote=Anonymous]I've had two c-sections (1 "unplanned" and 1 "planned") and if I decided to have another kid, I would have another. They were infinitely easier to recover from than I expected. Do not let up on pain medicine, but you really don't need the strong stuff after the first 3 days or so. Also, ask for these long ice packs. It's something about the cold and pressure that really helped me. Get up and walk around. You're not going to feel like you can, but you can and you should. BUT, send your child to the nursery/nurses station if your partner isn't in the room with you. My son started choking in the bassinet and I didn't feel like I could move fast enough to help him. (he was fine, but moment of panic on my part). The boppy pillow is your best friend. Good luck!![/quote]
