I'm scheduled for a c/s on Monday the 18th and have a few questions and concerns to bring up for you ladies who have already gone through it.
First, how many days did you stay? Did you wear your own clothes while hospitalized or the gown?
How bad is the pain? Is it over a 10 from a scale of 1-10? (can you tell I'm nervous about the pain?) By the second day, is the pain noticeably better or comparably the same as the first day?
If you've had pelvic pain during pregnancy, did it (kind of) go away after or did it still hurt (same or worse)? I've had really bad pelvic girdle pain since 2nd trimester, and it's just getting worse as the days go by. It's made worse if lying on back, which I would be in while getting c/s, so I'm afraid of potentially worsening of my pgp/spd.
I keep reading about bloating after c/s. Do they give you anything for it? I'll be taking ginger tea to help with bloating. I hope they're okay with that.
What did you find more comfortable to wear during the hospital stay? What did you find comfy wearing at home? I'm thinking of taking those foldover yoga pants, shirts that can be opened easily or pulled down for ease of bf, and long foldover skirt. Do you think these are ideal/good to wear?
Last question/concern (for now hehehe): kinda dumb q but does having c/s interfere with bf or affect when milk comes in? When did yours come in? How was your bf experience in the hospital, if you did?
Okay that's it for now. I'm so sorry, I've got lots of q and more but don't want to overwhelm anyone so I'm starting out with these first. I'd appreciate if you ladies offer me answers and encouragement as I'm really nervous about this.
