I had a scheduled c-section. I had mine done on a Wednesday and was d/c from the hospital on Friday. I was a bit sore, but nothing unbearable. I don't have a 2 year old to chase around, so .I'm sorry .I can't help you there.

Pack your bag as you normally would.

The first c-section is usually the hardest(not to scare you). If there are no complications, you should probably be discharged on the 3rd day. You'll be pretty sore, and you won't be able to get around very much for the first 12-24 hours. Do you have anyone staying with you the whole time you'll be there?

Hi

Thanks.

Just hoping that it wont be totally unbearable for days and days. i mean I was pretty ill after 1st birth, lost nearly 3 pints of blood so couldnt get out of bed for a couple of days.

i will have my Partner staying with me at home for 2wks and my family and partners family will be on hand if I need help with my son.

Just been for a scan and baby measuring 1wk ahead of dates. This isnt much but how son started out, exactly at this time.

Thanks a lot, just need honest anyway so you havent scared me
