C-Section Recovery Essentials + Postpartum Prep 2021 | 36 WEEKS PREGNANT

[@jesusismygodsavioursoldier7719]

I had my planned C section 1 week ago. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ. I had a better experience this time go. My recovery has been going well. This is my third baby boy. I came back to say thank you. Your videos are extremely helpful. You reminded me of what to expect and how to be prepared. I thank God for lovely people like you who speaks up. Thank you. God bless you and your beautiful family. Lot's of love from Australia. Carrol. 🥰

Hi Bethany, I have recently moved to the USA and 6 months pregnant. No friends and family here and this freaks me out to have a baby without having my family’s support. For a non native English speaker everything is a challenge even finding names of the baby’s essential needs. I was watching KZbin channels to see what should I get for my baby, then I found your channel. I’ve watched many of your videos to learn what to buy and how to be prepared for the baby. You have no idea how much you helped me to feel more relaxed knowing that there is someone out there that I can learn about motherhood. When you are new in a country, when you are learning the language even the simplest things are challenging. This is such a relief for me. Thank you Bethany♥️

I froze lots of homemade bean and cheese burritos, meatloafs, pasta, and pesto chicken w/ potatoes. I wish I would’ve remembered big undies that would go over my incision. I was happy to have my belly binder and shoes that would fit my giant swollen feet. This time around I’ve almost completely stopped bleeding at almost 4 weeks. My pain was much more this time around, but it made my swelling seem not so bad comparatively 😂. My feet and legs were like balloons both times. I didn’t need the heavy pain meds with my 1st, but absolutely needed them with my 2nd.

I'm having my third c section soon and one thing I have learned to have is Stay free long pads to put on my panties to keep my incision protected. My body doesn't like when I get cut and wants to become infected. They have to be Stay free though, the regular cotton onesand not the netted(like most are).

Thank you for making this video. I’m having my first baby via c section in less than two weeks and this was really helpful.

What is a “meal train”???

[@lauragraves602]

Thank you!!! I will go buy multiple size pads. And some diapers just because ive always been a heavy bleeder, S plus tampon with a pad and theyd get full within 4hrs or 2hrs.. 😅 so thinking diapers might be needed due to my genetics.

[@ninas4968]

Yes! Lol I got adult female diapers most absorbent and night time pads also most absorbent. 👍🏻 when things start getting lighter I already have always flex foam heavy flow.

[@crystaljackson3529]

I'm going for my 4th, a little nervous but staying positive. Praying for a safe delivery for you and baby!

[@Sarah.719]

@@crystaljackson3529 My 5th was 9 days ago, and it was actually my fastest and easiest delivery. Baby was out in 10 minutes. Very minimal scar tissue for having four previous ones. Recovery has been the easiest yet! I'll say a prayer for you 💙💗

@@Sarah.719congratulations!! That is such a blessing!!!! Music to my ears! Thank you so much❤

[@Lifeszebarbie]

I was told by my OB that 3 c-sections was the maximum allowed. You’re a rockstar!

[@CieraLevelsUp777]

[@candyyyybabeeee]

Me fricken too I was like “These aren’t that bad” 🤣 UNTIL I GOT A DIAPER RASH LMAO

[@jesusismygodsavioursoldier7719]

I'm in the same boat. I'm only 1 week out and I'm so grateful that ladies talk about this. In my first C section I was not prepared. and suffered for weeks. Now I'm having a smooth recovery. Thank you Lord Jesus.

Baby language link?

[@carriejohnson5706]

Your having your baby at 37 weeks?

[@lauragraves602]

They can survive at 37weeks... NICU is highly advanced from the 90s now...

[@lauragraves602]

no i am 33wks. was just saying babies used to die a lot back in early 90s from being born early

[@theminkisonfire]

37-42 weeks is considered full term. (40 is just average.)

[@jadejade5303]

What????? 7 weeks of bleeding after labor???? I thought 7days is super long for every month. Oh my.... make me rethink about wanting a baby now.

[@lauragraves602]

My friend took 8 months to recover from her C section. And bleeding was for 3months. Another only bled for 3 weeks and another bled for 2months. Just depends.

[@jadejade5303]

@@lauragraves602 did any if your friends hav any postpartum complications???

[@lauragraves602]

@@jadejade5303 No. Just make sure you ask for them to dumb it down or rephrase it if you do not understand what they are telling you, do not be afraid to ask any questions about postpartum care and recovery they may or may not -provide everything you need. you need to speak with hospital and ask what you should bring to the hospital for delievery some dont give you much for yourself and others give you extras,, you got this~~~ i am also trying to pack my bag lol 5weekd to go lol
