I had my c/s at 10.30am. They changed my pad in recovery, and at 3pm.
I asked them to change it a few times, but they didn't change it til I got out of bed at 10.30am the next morning. There was blood everywhere. It was horrible.
I felt so gross. I ended up having a shower, then left the hospital to go to the Royal Children's to see DD.

I mean, geez. They came in a million times during the night to check my blood pressure. But, wouldn't change my pad. I couldn't move, as I had a catheder in til 10.30am when I got out of bed.
