For C Section mommies, weird feeling?

I am curious to know if anyone else who had a csection has had a weird feeling since the birth of baby, anyone else feels like they need to push a baby out? Like your body knows there was a step missing? I been having that feeling like My body wants to push a baby out. I always wanted two kids so I know I want another baby so I do not know if its just that or my body really feels like there was a step missing and there was no relief. My mom said she ft the same way after having me, i was born via csection as well.

    I've had two c sections and one vaginal birth and can't say I've had this feeling. But with both sections I really didn't feel "normal" again until around 8-10 weeks after baby. Hope that helps!

    I've had a vaginal and c-section and can't say I've felt that.

    I've had two csections and have not felt that way. I do feel like my incision is going to pop open when I put pressure on my stomach ( when rocking/ bouncing LO). I might have a mental thing with my incision.

    Until week 7, the bottom of my stomach felt heavy like it wanted to drop out of my body. But between weeks 8-10 that feeling started going away.

    I am a FTM and definitely felt like I skipped a step. For me though, it was all mental. I had planned on a vaginal delivery but at 40 weeks my baby was huge and my dr didn't want to risk any complications with delivery (I had gestational diabetes). So, we scheduled a c-section two days before having her. It was hard for me to mentally process that the baby someone handed to me an hour after I walked in to the hospital was mine, I think because I had imagined it being so different for the nine months prior.

    I have heard of feeling like you have to push afterwards, but I didn't get that feeling.

    I do not physically feel an urge to push... I guess is all mental and emotionally I feel like I missed out on something. I was also waiting on a natural birth and I had mentally prepared my self to push a baby out and I guess when I did not I felt like something was missing. Also not getting to actually hold my baby right away like hold her hold her made me feel imcomplete for a while... I hope I get to experience viginal borth for my next baby... Than you everyone for your comments :)

    Not getting to hold my girl right away was the worst too. They put her by my head and unstrapped one of my arms for 30 seconds and then she was gone. After they closed me up and spent an hour in recovery (2 hours!!!) I finally got wheeled back to my room and got to hold her. Then I felt terrible because I breastfeed so she was starving and screaming trying to find a nipple anywhere. I'm going to look into a different hospital for the next birth. One where the put her on my chest right away and I get to have her in recovery even if I have a c section.
