I had a c-section on 10/10- it has been one week and I still feel horrible- is that normal? I also still have my staples in, my dr said when it is your 2nd c-section he leaves them in weeks- is that normal? Last time I feel like I was already feeling better, why am I not?

Hi, it's only been a week, are you taking care of 2 little ones now? That makes it really tough to recover from if your help has to go to work, or take care of other things throughout the day. You might have the staples in because you have more responsibilities at home and he/she wants to keep the incision closed. Take your temp, watch for signs of infection (redness, swelling, sharp pain, pus) and put all the necessary items you need for your day right near you. Put you, the baby and your other child in a small area of your home and keep the running around to a minimum. Sounds like you are having a rough recovery. Each c/s is different and that's why so many of us don't like them as a first choice. Keep us posted on how you are doing, ok?
