hey there, most importantly please know that EVERYONE has different situations and different pain after caesareans. My friend has had two and bounced straight up out of bed after each one.

Me on the other hand couldnt move an inch for days. I was in agony and no pain relief could help. I am so scared about ever having to go through it again should i not acheive my vbac.
Word for word almost exactly what I would say.
My c/s was horrendous. The actual procedure was fine - recovery the next day was as expected, but then I tore one of the internal stitches through my abdominal muscles and into the nerve on my leg. I couldn't walk for 2 wks after my c/s and was discharged home in a wheelchair, and was taking morphine and other strong pain killers for a couple of weeks. It made caring for a newborn baby (a reflux-y one at that) very stressful.

I am terrified of having another c/s.
