C-sections

Swimming??

When did your OB say you would be able to go swimming? TIA!

  • I think it was at 6 weeks but it could have been 8.  I don't remember exactly but I would wait until around 8 at least.

  • I asked my OB about this a few weeks ago & he said once I stop bleeding - so hopefully before 6 weeks, if I feel up to it....

  • I think it depends on if you dilated or not. I had dilated to 5 before my csection and my OB told me not to submerge my pelvis for 6 weeks.

    I believe it has to do with the healing of where the placenta was attached not if you dilated.
