Tips for before and after doing Csec

My baby was big 3.6kg around 39 ish weeks and had emergency c sect due to failed induction. recovery is different for everyone but for me I was told to manage the pain from the c section without taking too much painkillers. bcs sometimes painkillers make you forget youre supposed to take it easy! i was also given sea cucumber liquid. it's said to regenerate the broken tissues and increase the healing process of the c section wound which I felt helped quite a bit bcs I felt i could walk a little faster day by day just that I should push myself too much. more importantly prep for your breastfeeding journey as well like pumps and sorts bcs you may have some delay in producing milk so collect that colostrum if you do see it coming out!

Hi! Can I check the weight and head circumference for your LO? I’m at 34 week and he is 2.8kg at 30cm.. wonder if this stats is considered big too.. for planning for c sect, I spoke to the hosp during pre registration and they will provide list of things to pack and look out for.

Hello, I’m week 34.5 and baby is 3kg with head circumference 33cm 🥲 My gynae hasn’t talked to me about c sect but gynae told me baby above 3.5kg is challenging for natural birth for FTM. I’m glad we can discuss about this together, I’m quite stressed up by this
