CSection and Tubal

apmom

Did anyone get their tubes tied at the same time as their c-section?  How was recovery?  Were there lasting side effects?  TY!

Just had mine yesterday. So far, recovery seems exactly the same as previous c/s. Surgery took about an extra 15 min but not even sure that was all from tubal- I had a good bit of scar tissue.

I'm also planning to have the tubal with my C.  My doc says that I may notice additional pain and soreness higher than my incision area.

He said, in general with the monthly cycle, I may notice a little more cramping during my periods because on heavy flow days the blood may back up into the fallopian tube and then hit that scar/barrier, causing pressure and some pain. But I don't usually cramp painfully and don't usually have very heavy flows, so I'm not very concerned about additional monthly pain.

I'm another one who didn't notice a difference with recovery

I had one and I did have much heavier periods post partum, but I don't know if this is due to the tubal or just my body changing after having two babies and getting older.

I had one a year ago and my recovery was pretty easy.  I also haven't noticed any difference in my cycle since then.  Unfortunately, I still get one.  Wish they would have fixed that, too.

I had a tubal done with my c-section, and I was fine.

However, I am pregnant 14 months later due to a failed tubal.

@hopenotlost ACK!! That is scary stuff!! Best wishes to you!!

PP, I had a RCS and tubal in November. My recovery was a lot harder this time around. However, my pregnancy was also a lot more difficult. Not sure if that could have played into it.
