swelling one week post c/s

Hey everyone! I know it's only been one week, but since I've never had a C, I do t really know what to expect. My incision and the area around it is still swollen (although it had gone down a bit since we got home). How long should I expect the swelling to continue?? I also have a slight burning feeling along my envisioning its not red and doesn't look infected. Thankfully it doesn't hurt to laugh. Cough etc anymore! And getting in and out of bed is relatively pain-free now.  Any input would be appreciated!

    I am 4.5 post csection and my swelling has just gone down. It takes a while, so what your going through is completely normal. I still have pain too

    I'm impressed with no pain getting in and out of bed, I'm one week post CS and that's the worst part!
