I've just had my 3rd c-section and the recovery was just as good as my second.

With my second i had Alex at 2.36pm and was up and about at 8am the next day. I was able to move better than with my first c-section as i was so sick. I was also up and about at the same time with my 3rd c-section.

I think it helps when you have other kids to watch as you are doing little things for them and not resting all the time.
