Question for c-section mom's

I had a c-section with my DS and its been about a week post partum and I'm having what feels like a muscle pull in the lower right hand side of my abdomen, a little bit above my stitches. Anyone have something that felt like this? It hurts more in the evenings than during the day.

  • Yes.

    My muscles hurt MUCH more than the incision itself. In fact, my incision didn't hurt at all until I got home  but I never took more than Motrin.  But everything eventually went away.

  • I had the same problem with muscle pain but mine was on the left side. I was able to control the pain with Tylenol. It took about 6 weeks for the pain to completely go away. I was able to deal with it most of the time after a the second week since it was on and off with no meds.

  • Its healing. You'll get used to it. I still have no feeling around it.
  • Yes, unfortunately. It's normal. I have the muscle pulling on the right side, and on the left side a part of my incision isn't entirely closed. :/ At least the hubs gets to stay home from work a few more weeks :D Doc's orders.
