Finally, I had the baby!

[aremac]

I haven't posted loads on here (was more active on TB, but then the migration). 
Anyway, I'm happy to say that I'm finally a mother! 

I ended up with a c-section on feb 7 after a 24hour labour and though I feel like I got hit by a truck I am so happy to have my girl! My H has been a huge help, along with my mum. MIL gets here saturday for a week long visit and to help out since I'm incapacitated. 

Any c-section healing tips would be much appreciated - I feel rough. 

Ok, I have a million threads to catch up on! 

Here's the love of my life -

Congrats!!

Congrats! It sucks, but the more you walk, the better your recovery. The first two days were hell for me and then it got better.

Congrats and I second the walking. Take it slow but make sure to get up and get moving! I did a lot of walking and I'd say I was 90% better by 2 weeks!

Walk just a few minutes and gradually add more time.

Walk and take all the stool softeners!

[sgio7485]

I agree with the walking and stool softeners! And keep taking the stool softeners even when you think you don't need them anymore for a bit!

Congratulations. Adorable baby!!

Agree with the other Mama's, walk, eat lots of fibre, dry your incision well after a shower and take your pain meds. It's easier to stay onto of the pain than to try to play catch up. You'll be surprised how quickly you'll feel better.
