    First of all. Thank you all for your quick replies. I am now home and got panadeine forte. I agree with you with how much you do. I was in dire pain last night but I was walking a bit more then I am used to. Tbh I felt like asking for more pain relief made me feel like an addict or something... They were good once I complained but just the fact that I had too ask three times for pain relief made me angry as I know that if you keep on top of it from the start, it is easier after a few days to have nothing.

    As for this elastic thing. Now I am ****ed. I did not even see the physio lady... Oh she dropped by on friday with a leaflet and then left. WTF? I went private too. So should I get one? and were would I get one from? Is this similar to the belly bands that they sell at baby galore?

    I have about 20 forte left and voltarin. I was not given any repeats so wondering what the hell I will do if I still need them.

    I read that a small amount of you needed panadol. Thanks so much for your reply too. It makes me realise that no I was not some freak of nature as they made me feel.

    Hey LIG!

    Sorry, just seen this now. Totally appreciate the offer but got a belly bandit on Monday. So sweet of you to offer! Thanks anyways. Btw oddly enough, now that I am wearing the belly bandit the pain has subsided big time. Lets hope I am drug free very soon! xx

    So glad the support belt is working for you...I cannot believe that it isn't a routine thing for them to give mums post CS. Like I said, if I even went 2 hours without having mine on in the early days I would feel it so much more for the rest of the day. I have my 2 already washed and lined up as spares for in hossy and afterwards
