I will be having a 3rd cs in November. Both of my daughters were breech. I am trying to figure out a pain management plan. I don't do well with prescription pain killers. They make me very anxious and I basically feel like I'm losing my mind...not good! Has anyone gone without them? Only used motrin or something similar? I remember the nurses insisting that I take the prescription stuff last time... norco, I think.

ETA: once they removed the IV I refused any oral narcotics. I don't know what they pumped me with prior to that
I plan on taking 2 plain Tylenol with 2 regular strength ibuprofen every 6 hours when I deliver (3rd C/S. It really is quite effective, and is actually what we give to post op patients on our unit
