I am 2 and a half months post c-section and I look like I am 9 months pregnant. Right after surgery my belly went down, minus the new added belly fat, but at 1 month post, I started experiencing extreme bloating, especially between the belly button and my chest. I can't have any pressure on my stomach (pants, my son) or I start to cramp. I am also very gassy and tend to burp and pass gas without warning several times a day. I never had gas of any type before surgery, never. I am also experiencing flu like symptoms: cold sweats - yet no fever, body aches, upset stomach, etc. I also have a sore spot along my incision, yet there aren't any signs of swelling, redness, etc. I also only bled 2 days after surgery. Any ideas? Can anyone else relate to my symptoms? Sorry so long and thank you.

i would call your doc...sounds like you might have an internal infection, or something up with your colon...are your bowel movements ok?

HI, it could be many things from irritable bowel syndrome, gastric reflux disease, autoimmune disorder, infection, to a kinked bowel. You MUST get to the doctor, this is not a normal side effect of cesarean sections. Do your joints ache and burn? Call your doc and let us know, ok?

yes, all my systems are fine, and I have ibs and know how to keep it in check. Three days after surgery I was put on an antibiotic because they thought I might have an infection because I only bled for two days. I stopped bleeding before I left the hospital.
