Weird Postpartum Stomach?

[cherrylips100]

Has anyone else got a weird post baby stomach going on? It doesn't really hurt just feels weird, stretched and tender inside, I can't really explain it. I had a csec but don't think it is related as its in a different place.

I kinda feel like that on and off... Mostly at the end of the day or if I've had to sit for a long time.

Hey, I had a section too.. Am now 10 weeks pp and only just able to get back in some pre-pregnancy clothes.. The first couple of weeks I just wanted to cry my stomach was awful.. Stretch marks everywhere, sticking out like I was still 5 months pregnant!! I honestly felt a bit like ET, and I'm only 20 so I kinda expected to "ping" back into shape as soon as I gave birth! That was rather silly looking back on it! We've had major abdominal surgery, it does take a few months to go back to some kind of normal..

I do recommend some firm control pants, like Bridget jones style big! They hold you in, make the wobbly area feel stronger and they made my stomach shrink back down to normal after about 2 weeks of wearing them.. I think the compression helps with the swelling..

Oh and as for stretch marks/discolouration I love Bio Oil.. I've been using it for a few weeks and my tummy is getting it's normal look back, I actually am starting to think that I might actually be able to wear a bikini in the future!! So yeah, tight granny pants and bio oil is the way to go!! x

Oops forgot to add, one side of my belly is still completely numb and the other side feels kinda prickly inside and tender if I touch it.. Think it's something to do with nerves regenerating and healing? Think it's normal, hope this helps!!!
