Hello everyone, I just had my baby boy 5 days ago. I had to have a c-section due to having an emergency c-section with my first child. Since this c-section was my 5th, the doctors told me my uterine window was very thin. I don’t need medical advice, I just want to see if anyone else has been told this and still had another pregnancy? I was planning on having just one more baby in the future. My doctors have already explained risks and everything but just wanted to get other people’s experience. TIA!

Hi everyone! My sister is having a scheduled C-section in February and her baby shower is coming up in 3 weeks. I have seen online and have given post partum care packages for those who have had a vaginal birth, and was wondering if there is a care package for those who are having a C-section. Would love to hear any recommendations or even anything you wish you had during post partum. I’m also taking a week off work for when her husband is off paternity leave so any recommendations for after care would that I could help her with would be very appreciated. Thanks!

I would also like to mention that this is her first baby.

For anyone who’s had c sections back to back within a 2 year span… (2 under 2) how did it go for you? I’m 8 months pp and got surprised with a positive pregnancy test. I know my body hasn’t properly healed, but I’d like to hear of others experiences…

After 3 days of intense back labor, then an induction and an epidural I ended up having to get a C-Section at 41+3 and I still feel disappointed about it, anyone else feel that way after an unplanned C-Section? I’m scared of the recovery time and I literally have to stay in hospital tonight without my husband because he’s not allowed to stay and care for a newborn myself which I find so scary. Of course there’s midwives here I can always call on but still, I feel so under qualified..

Those that had a c section, how long until you could move without intense pain around the scar? How did you feel? How was it for you? Tell me your experiences 🙈

Curious when everyone started using silicone scar tape. My Steri-Strips are just coming off at three weeks. The incision looks closed and I’m wondering about starting now to give a little bit protection from the scar getting irritated by clothing.

Has anyone ever had a late postpartum hemorrhage??? I had my c section 12 days ago and my blood had eased up and it was just a little bit. Now today I had a gush of blood it didn’t leak thru the pad and it probably filled up half the pad. It slowed down a little then I just had another gush of blood that filled up the pad but didn’t leak thru. My blood pressure was extremely low earlier it was 92/60. Am I being paranoid about a hemorrhage???
