I'm Currently Feeling:  | Oh hun I know how you feel, after my section I was out of real pain in about 2-3 weeks but I am a quick healer. It depends person to person my sis-in-law was still in pain 2 months later!!! hopefully not that long for you.
Take care hun and dont try to do to much to quickly, take time to heal properly  |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | It was a few weeks for me as well. It is really frustrating. Stay down right now as much as you can. Get up a couple of times a day and move around, and then increase your activity each week. I pretty much stayed in bed the first week, and I think that really helped. |

| Was about 4 or 5 weeks till I felt a good bit better. I wa prescribed painkillers but didn't feel the need to take them after about 3 weeks.
Was very careful with it for 8 weeks.
And beware of pushing supermarket shopping trolleys. |

| because they don't always move in a straight line like they should. A friend of mine burst her stitches trying to control a trolley that was veering to the side. |
