It's great to share information & experiences.
I certainly didn't begin to menstruate again any earlier with my c/section than with my vaginal births. This is really to do with breastfeeding and it's frequemcy rather than the surgery.
AlsoThis is worrisome for me personally. Co sleeping post op is not recommended & will be against hospital policy. This is due to the fact that narcotics that you will be on post op make you less aware. There has been incidences of Mothers smothering their babies post op due to this. This is why it is not recommended & certainly against hospital policy for that reason.#25 Getting baby into and out of the plastic fish bowls provided by the hospital is almost impossible for the first day and very painful for the next few days. So don't bother! Just keep bubs close to you in bed. They are used to being close to you anyway so it eases the transition into the big wide world.
Of course at home when you are only on panadol/panadeine it's fine but certainly whilst you are on a PCA or any other narcotic meds (panadeine forte) it is not recommended.![]()
