Baby 14, after c-section #2, I've been determined to get up as soon as sensation is back. #2 I was left in bed longer than I wanted (almost 24hrs!) and I was on pain meds for weeks. First three I had epidurals, this time I had a spinal block with morphine in the same spot. It was amazing how fast feeling came back and without the pain! The morphine made me vomit that first day though :/ yuck! But only twice lol. The rest of the time I felt great. I just desperately wanted to sleep in my own bed and be at home with everyone, I was just too sooky without them all haha.

Today is the first day I haven't had a headache since leaving hospital (and only having nurofen for pain relief). I'm so happy lol. I had been sleeping and feeding awkwardly in hospital, my muscles were so out of whack. After lots of massages. & hot showers they've gone. Yay!

TMI question, possibly? How different is the length of people's loss (lochia). My first bub I bled for 6 weeks, 2nd 4 weeks, 3rd three weeks and 4th only six days. Is that normal? I see my ob on Friday, but it just seems so short! My tummy feels fine, no cramping or anything and has gone down as per normal. I just keep thinking "surely this is too good to be true" lol.
