Coughing. I had a cold right before I have birth and coughing at the hospital post-birth was just painful!! Pooping is still hurting, thanks a lot hemis. I actually thought sex was better postpartum last time... Maybe it's just me.
Pooping wasn't so bad for me. No tear though so maybe that helped. Sneezing and coughing makes me feel like my uterus is just going to fall out. I feel like I need I squeeze it in. It's getting better almost 3w PP though.
I still have an inside baby so I don't know what to expect, but I'm already terrified about pooping for the first time. I've told everyone I know that I need a good supply of stool softeners for PP so that I don't scar myself for life. Luckily I'm a once a day pooper (TMI, sorry) so hopefully I don't have to worry about it too often!
I was so scared of pooping, because I tore to my butt. But with stool softeners it was okay.
Now I am terrified to have sex when the time comes... We haven't done it in so long, I feel pressure for it to be good.
I was scared to poop but it actually wasn't bad for me!! Sneezing hurt real bad! My boobs have doubled in size in the last couple of days so they are tender!
Sneezing and coughing definitely. BFing is getting less painful every day but for awhile I really dreaded every feeding. Now I think my next hurdle will be making my first solo trip out of the house. Maybe tomorrow? Eeek, this terrifies me. I just need to get over it and venture out so I will realize it is not such a big deal ...
Pooping was a nightmare! It hurt so badly! Also the first couple of weeks bf I hated when LO had to latch on. OUCH! It's still sore but seems to be getting better.
Oh lordy, I forgot about the PP sneeze problem. My mom was in the room when it happened the first time and I yelled "OHMYGOD MY BUTT ALMOST FELL OFF." and she died laughing. I was not nearly as entertained.
Definitely poop. And actually the first time trying to pee PP after I had DS. It's like my junk forgot how to work and I had to go so badly but couldn't.

I totally couldn't hold my pee once or twice...
luckily I was wearing the mesh underwear both times. the first time was while I was still in the hospital, and I was ready to pull down the underwear and just felt the stream come and couldn't stop. Good thing I was using the pampers ice pack too. Those pampers hold a ton of pee!
The second time was the same, except I was home, and just using a regular pad. I totally peed with my mesh underwear on and sitting on the toilet.
Sleeping. I am really afraid once I can sleep on my tummy I won't wake up until peanut is full on screaming for food. I am usually a really heavy sleeper.
Peeing still kinda irritates stuff down there, but not too bad.
Still not "on track" in the bowel movement department. My OB wants me to keep taking the stool softener, but when I do, it just turns everything to diarrhea and it BURNS!
I have my 6weeks marked on the calendar for when sex can happen... I honestly felt like jumping my FI's bones in the hospital. )
Yea, pooping after a CS is no fun. I felt like it took a good 4-5 months to not hurt! Maybe I stopped taking the stool softener a too soon. It all got back to normal, but I dreaded that for so long!
I'm a FTM so can't say from experience but sneezing and bending over are my biggest fears. I bought support underwear today because I'm afraid of feeling things move in there the thought freaks me out. Also my allergies are acting up and sneezing hurts being pregnant I can only imagine what it's going to be like after.

Dh going back to work. I've already got the baby blues and my anxiety is creeping back up. Not gonna be fun...
I was right there with you when DH went back 2 days after we got released. Baby blues only lasted a couple of days, thank God! LO was 2 weeks yesterday, and everything is okay...

It may not be the same at first, but it does go back to the way it was eventually. Never fear.
I'm worried about breast feeding, but only because I struggled so much with DS. I really hope my experience is easier this time.
Pooping is still hurting, thanks a lot hemis.
