4 days post op! Started by: Dannie

Hiya! I’ve been having a few of these feelings too! And sharp shooting pains! It’s just everything healing inside I think….maybe a sign we should be taking it easier?! I remember having those feelings with my c-sections and it was usually coz of done too much coz I wasn’t in that much pain but obvs I was internally!
Are u doing more than u expected?! I’m more mobile than I thought I would be after reading stories on here but ive been resting up more so that I’m ok for next week! Xx

It’s normal sweetie. I had the same, it’s just that you’re healing and you’re swollen so everything is under stress right now. I found that it helped if I put the opposite hand under each boob and moved really slowly when getting up or sitting down. Also, don’t forget to bum shuffle when getting in or out of bed, don’t try to use your arms.
That ripping feeling went around 6/7 days post op for me. xxx

It’s normal! I felt the same, even now I’m 9 days post op I get the same feeling when I sit up/lay back, not as bad now but it’s defo normal Hun don’t worry xxx

I’m really hoping it’s the strapping as sharp pain getting worse rather than better. Fingers crossed it goes xx
