[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know you're asking for comparisons to other vaginal deliveries, but here are my C recoveries for comparison to the alternative: The two recoveries were similar. Minimal bleeding for a few weeks, hurt really bad to laugh/cough for a couple weeks after the first one. Not too much pain around the incision, esp when I used the belly binder. I was walking the day after the surgeries, although in the week that followed I overdid the walking and had to go lie down. Sex after definitely hurt the first few times, not sure why! I occasionally pee a bit when I sneeze. Almost two years out from the second C, however, I have occasional pain- feels like muscle pain- near the incision. My OB thinks it's scar tissue, and if I have a third C, they'll try to clear it away (though new scar tissue could always form).[/quote] This comparison is very helpful! Part of me wishes I could just request a c section[/quote]
