I would think at this point, actual pain might not be a great sign. Granted I am 4 years post-partem, so I don’t remember everything, but it seems like most of my serious pain was gone by this time. I probably had some slight tingling and soreness, but not pain. It took me 4-6 weeks to feel fully recovered though. Recovery took longer with my first, I was a lot more cautious then. With my second, I knew what to expect, so I was up and walking around the same day as my c-section. I also made a conscious effort to walk upright more, and knew that the movement was good for me. If you don’t want to drag everyone to the doctor, at least call the office and talk to a nurse. That 1-10 pain scale is a good indicator for them. Also, as nasty as the incisions are, you should check for redness and oozing, or have Josh do it. I couldn’t stand looking at my incisions for the longest time. If there is redness and oozing, go see the doctor. Hope this helps.

You are the most gorgeous pregnant lady I’ve ever seen! Take some time to rest, recover & enjoy that sweet baby…and take care of YOU! A call to the doc might put a lot of fears to rest. Hugs to you!

Pain around any incision is not a good sign. Time to see the DR.

hi there

I’m a new fan to your blog! congrats on your baby! I’ve had 4 c/sections and 5 babies. it’s ok to have a bit of soreness at the edges of your wound and sometimes you get that if you’ve over done it. but if it’s really hurting and not going away just see your dr. I take pain relief for about 7 days after my c/sections and then I’m good

well done on getting these lovely photos! i wish I’d had some nice one takens with my last pregnancy as it really was my last

enjoy! my baby is now 12 weeks this wedneday and it’s flying by
