repeat csection and tubal ligation

[Blessedbaby]

hi ladies

has anyone had a tubal ligation during their repeat csection? if so, how was your recovery? did you find it much more difficult than when you only had your csection? when will I be able to drive again? still 6 weeks?

any advice on how to recover quicker ... thanks

Yup! I did just over 8 weeks ago.

They also found a tear in my uterus and lots of scar tissue sticking stuff together.

I recovered wonderfully! I had a section on Thursday and was back driving on Monday.

I didn't find that the recovery was any different because of the tube tying at all. That was my third section.

I started lifting weights and doing long walks about 2 weeks PP, I found walking harder than driving.

I don't see how any adult can quit driving for 6 weeks, especially with other kids.

I had a third c/section and TL four months ago. I didn't find it to be any worse than the previous c/s. I drove after a week. The lochia did last longer than my previous pregnancies (6 weeks on and off) but that was probably due to the 40 stairs I had to climb to our flat we were renting while waiting for our new house to be built lol! For me the hardest part has been knowing I can't have any more children. Not that we would have anyway, but somehow the physical closing of that door has been hard.
