Cissy - August 26

Hello everyone. Sorry I haven't responded in a while. I have been fighting swelling and heartburn and no sleep. I went in on Aug. 15 for a check up and my doctor decided to take her on the 16th. Sydney weighed 7.3 and was 19 inches long. She had trouble breathing (fluid in her lungs) and had a high white cell count so they took her straight to NICU. She stayed for 5 days..luckily my hands, feet and incision were so swollen with fluid that my doctor had me stay for 5 days.. SOOO she came home with me which is not what the doctors predicted. She is so beautiful, head full of hair, dark complexion and sweet as a bug. My 7 year old daughter is so happy to be a big sister. After my C-section I am still experiencing swelling in my incision area. My gross stretch marks are puffy and swollen. Has anyone every experienced their stretch marks swelling? Does this go down? and when? I go back to the doctor in 5 more days for my 2 week check up... I'll ask him too but just wanted to know if any of you have had this happen and did it or when did it go down?

Congrats on the birth of you DD! She sounds beautiful. It has been 13 years for me but as I recall the stretch marks look swollen because they have lost the stretch. they just look puffy now and they will get better but it will take time. Again congrats!
