6 weeks post C, bathroom issues

BabyIxolib

quick question (I hope) I am 6 weeks post c-section and having issues with the bathroom. When I have to go, I HAVE TO GOOO, no holding it in. Also I am still having some muscle pain when I have a bowel movement. Anyone else experiencing this 6 weeks out?

I had horrible bathroom issues for months. This included hemroids and urgent bathroom needs repeatedly. I hope it gets better for you soon.

I would definitely talk to your OB about it. I did pelvic floor therapy after my last csection as I had a catheter for a few weeks because of a bladder tear. The therapy helped with getting control of my bladder again.

Yes! It was as though I didn't have the sensation to pee anymore until it was an emergency situation. It seems better now or I just got used to it... 27 month post-csection.

Not sure if this makes any difference, but when my nurse removed my catheter, she had me getting up to use the bathroom whether I felt like I had to go or not.
