WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER A C-SECTION || POSTPARTUM PAIN, BLEEDING AND NURSING || BETHANY FONTAINE

[@BethanyFontaine]

Just a disclaimer: When I made this video I was uninformed about c-section procedure during surgery. They DO NOT remove your organs during surgery. My apologies if there was any confusion. I just made an updated C-section video if you'd like to check it out! Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@belamourbeauty]

In some cases they do! In my birth video they had to remove my intestines cause my uterus was in a weird position. They placed it on a metal tray next to me

[@bargainswithjoy]

They removed one of mine. My husband thoughts it was my bladder.

[@marissalorraine8700]

I had mine removed as well 😅

My C-section went so smoothly. I didn't have much pain after the epidural wore off. I would have a 100 babies that way. Everyone has different experiences I guess.

[@YunJaeGDLuv]

Melissa Van Rooyen so incredibly lucky 😭

[@angellove7127]

Mine was smooth as well & the recovery process wasn’t bad I guess because I walked around a lot

[@homesci3596]

[@antayiabrunson8201]

I’ve always used my own milk to treat cracked nipples. Lanolin and Vaseline work great, but my babies didn’t enjoy the taste of it. After each feeding I would hand express a few drops of milk and coat my nipples then let them air dry for few seconds. Breast milk has natural healing abilities and it allowed my nipples to heal faster. Hope this helps someone.

[@schandnaviarevival]

God bless you deep,my wife was in deep pain but when I opened your channel she really understood it was normal.

[@constanzaacuna3597]

I had an emergency c section on Friday 13th, I spent two days without seeing my 35-week-old baby because I lost a lot of blood, I felt a lot of pain and I'm still recovering, but when I saw him for the first time and now every day is the best reward that I can have, women are so strong

[@PhoenieFroe313]

I had one last week and almost died from losing a lot of blood. Back on my feet doing things but trying not to overdo things like suggested. I am still experiencing pains and I just can't wait to get back to normal. I'm so super grateful I survived and just can't stop staring at my bubba lol.

[@annettemartinez8974]

Hi, thank you for sharing your experience. I had a C-section 3 weeks ago (first baby); I never experienced pain, maybe some slight discomfort, but it never really hurt. Nurses gave me Arcoxia and Tylex and apparently those really helped me through recovery. The area around the scar still feels kind of numb. I can sit down, get up, walk and take care of my baby pleasantly. I hope this information is useful for any new Mom. I guess all experiences are different; some might be painful and some others not so much. Btw your baby is beautiful and really cute! Nice vlog!

[@cookwithsaireta8693]

Usually for 1st time c section not much pain but 2nd and the following c. Section is terribly painful.. Thru my experience

[@lurkinlikeaboss]

yammu yammi if you don’t mind me asking I’m going to be a second time mom in august and had to have a csection with my first son, I’m trying to figure out if I should be prepared for another and if so how different the healing process will be from my first. Any information would be greatly appreciated, as most people I know had v-delivery I’m nervous as to what to expect

Are you from the us because Arcoxia has been banned here since 2007

Awesome video, I'm having a C-section Friday cause my baby girl is breech....this came at the perfect time 😊

[@user-me2bc2zd8q]

Thank you for talking about your actual experience with how recovering went!! I've watched a lot of c-section recovery videos where they just repeat the basic things they read online, like keep your scar dry and take sure it isn't infected. I love that you actually told your story! It helps me know what to expect, which is what I need.

[@EJ-fd7mp]

I am almost 1 month post C section and I was not prepared for all of the things that come postpartum. I honestly feel traumatized and rushed into it with zero idea what to expect when I got home…. but none the less… my healthy baby boy makes me feel much better when I look at him. There needs to be more and more videos like this, everyone can’t always deliver vaginally

[@mickaylamaystrawberry6251]

I had a vaginal delivery with my first, really bad experience though I had a diagnosis of pre eclampsia at 8cm dilated my sons heart rate dropped and I needed an assisted delivery with vacuum and episiotomy it sucked and my stitches came undone so I had to heal a hole down there you can imagine peeing with that trying to keep it cleaning bleeding and pooing was pretty scary so scared i would get an infection and to much scar tissue yook i weeks for the hole to fully close. I promise you there are allot of us who have horrible experiences with vaginal births aswell xx this time around I'm planning a c section i don't think it will be easier but I have more control than last time.

[@alishawilliamson8707]

I love that you did this video bcuz you talked about everything that noone wants to talk about but needs to be out there for those in need to hear...alot of good info even for ppl with natural births as well

[@rmfrechette]

Almost four weeks postpartum from my first C-section and you seriously hit on everything I’ve been feeling with the recovery. Also those always pads are life changing! Bought them before the surgery and been loving them for recovering.

[@markpalo7772]

Just had a emergency c section about a week ago. I dilated all the way to a 10 and my baby was breech So they rushed me into the OP room and fully knocked me out. I was in severe pain for about 3 days straight. And now I have a kidney infection so I'm still in pain. I had 3 vaginal deliveries before this last pregnancy and was up and moving with no pain the next day after delivery. I wouldn't wish a c section on anyone and prefer vaginal delivery. Wish I would have seen your video Before having a c section. Thanks for the information :) -lacey marvin

[@mariecruz6439]

I wish someone would of told me what happens after a c-section. Going number two is hell . And getting up for the first time after the c section is the worse thing ever. Other than that I haven’t had a lot of problems.

[@Chelseamayhew42]

I had bare minimal pain with my section so I was so grateful for that! By the end of the day I was a bit sore so I rested. Moving and walking helped tremendously! You have to move but go at your own pace and don't over do it. I had staples but they took them out three days later before so went home and put steri strips. I had very light bleeding but it lasted forever. Mine lasted 8 weeks. By 3 months I felt good and by 6 I felt great! Now 9 months pp and I'm back to myself. Granny panties for the win definitely! I found this video very helpful and very informative for those who might be having a c section (first or repeat).

Lord yes , I thought having the staples were definitely gruesome looking . I remember finally giving in and showering at the hospital and I couldn’t even get myself to look at it 😩 but regardless everything you go through as a mother before, during and after is worth it ❤️

[@musicbus84]

oh my gosh i bought tons of pads and i honestly did not bleed much, i mostly had spotting for 3 months. my tip is to not go crazy buying stuff , eveyones postpartum is different

[@brendavelasquez3744]

I had a csection 8 weeks ago and had a similar experience. Very painful experience for me. Lucky for those that didn’t have pain! 8 weeks later I’m still sore sometimes.

[@sofiabent9129]

I had a c section 5 years ago after having excruciating stalled labor. The surgery was quick and easy and baby had a high APGAR score. I recovered so fast the doctors let me go home 2 days later with just a 800mg ibuprofen prescription which helped keep pain to a minimum. I was able to take care of my baby and still do chores around the house. They put those special stitches in that absorb into the body so I never needed stitches removed. Sure, for the first few weeks I had "moments" of pain that felt kind of like hot shards of glass, but it still wasn't as bad as my labor pain. I would absolutely get an elective c section again. I'm due March 10, but doctor says he can do a c section at week 39 if I want to go with the sure thing and skip possible complications. Honestly I don't really want to try a VBAC it just sounds worse to me. My first baby was just over 8lbs, this one will probably be 8-9lbs because I have mild GD this time but I am watching my carb intake and cutting sugar so she probably won't be huge. I am so excited. 3/3/20 will probably be the day unless she comes earlier on her own.

My c section was emergency, after 26 hours of painful labor! It was very traumatic for me, I was put completely under during part of my surgery and I wasn’t able to see him when they pulled him out or have him on my chest they took him straight to the baby warming thing to cut the chord. Afterwards I was very loopy in and out of sleep and didn’t get to hold him for like a hour and a half after he was born. That whole night I threw up so many times which was so painful since I was literally just cut open. It was just all around very traumatic experience and not anywhere near what my birth plan was. I’m currently 31 weeks pregnant with my second and I have a c section scheduled for April 20 and I am honestly terrified even though people tell me the second one is much easier and smoother. But considering how traumatic my first one was I am just absolutely terrified. I’m hoping I will go into labor before my scheduled c section and be able to have her naturally because the thought of having another c section gives me so much anxiety!

The colostrum dosent tide the baby over till your milk comes in lol it's a liquid that's literally jam packed with nutrients and good bacteria to give your baby the first good lining In the GI tract, that's why even if you don't want to breastfeed the doctors and nurses strongly recommend you at least feed for the first day or two, cus babies that don't get that liquid gold (literally what they call it lol) tend to have more GI tract problems down the road 😁😁 thanks for the vid, just wanted to help clear things up lol

[@EsterHerman101]

Amazing video! It was so informative. ❤️

I'm 40 weeks my baby is down but not entirely in my pelvis. They'll induce me this Friday 14 if I haven't had any labor symptoms by this sat/sun. I'm quite scared if they end up doing c-section. So far my Dr. say unless is a risky delivery then that's a possibility but so far she say is normal for 1st mom to be late and hopefully he'll go down by then. I just want to prepare myself for different outcomes. And this is definitely HELPFUL ❤

Hi Michelle How was your delivery?

[@michellecortez38]

@@nothinglikefamily4534 not what I expected. And since I went without dilatedi fektblike hell lol Tuesday I went in bc of fetus decrease movement. They keep it their since I was already scheduled. I try have it natural they put 2 different things down there idk the name of the 1st but the 2nd was Foley bulb both device did help me since I went zero to 5 by Thursday morning they put the pitocin dose follow by breaking my water to see if I could dilate more then 5 but i didn't and the dose was increasing my baby Heartbeat so they told me I could keep trying but my baby could be at risk so it was keep trying or a c section. And well I chose what was best for my baby so i end up been cut 😭🤷‍♀️ they told me my cervix was to long and even know I dilate he was still up. Anyways I end up having a healthy baby boy jun 13 at 7:22 PM 9.11 Lb and God knows I'm still scared of the csection specially cuz I got temperature I had to had blood transfusions it was to much for me 🤭🤣 I can't believe I had it. In total I was 6 days in the hospital I was really stressed out by then. Experience wise ..shhhhh I wish I could it be more nicer and smoother. Oh well at least my baby is fine ❤✌

[@nothinglikefamily4534]

Oh..That seems like a bit of my story. Congratulations for having a healthy baby:) I was also induced for my first child in Aug, 2016 and was 8cm dilated with pitocin but due to baby got distressed, I had to go for emergency c-section which was too scary for me. I was in total shock as I dint expect this after being 4 days in hospital for induction already. But I delivered healthy baby boy, so forgot everything:) Came home at 6th day. Now scheduled c-section on my due date 2nd July 2019 as I want to try vaginal Birth but can't make my mind fully for vaginal birth. If I would go into labour normally then doctors would let me go for vaginal birth but I'm still making my mind whether to just ask them for do my c-section, but confused:(

I had a c section with my son having another one with my 2nd baby on February 20th 2020

The projectile vomit was a way of him saying “I want attention”😹 your baby is so adorable btw!

[@Layla_Charlie]

I ended up with emergency caesarean and it’s horrible . I cried I couldn’t deliver myself. C section is the worst thing i went through It hurts a lot You can’t sleep on your side I don’t bleed much but it bloody hurts a lot Still walking bended half way down I hate not having control over my body :( it’s all so fresh :(

I had mine 2 days ago, an emergency c section and I'm traumatized

[@magical.melody674]

I’m actually glad you made this video. I have total previa with this pregnancy and may need to have a c section this time. I have no idea what to expect or what could happen at all.

[@nursyahidahwee]

My 1st baby no pain after Csection 2nd baby , it hurts. The stitches were dangling out of my wound on Day6 and wound end up gaping for 2months Going to have my 3rd c section in 8 hours time. I just hope it goes smoothly this time round 🙏 Cant afford to fall sick, i have 3 to look after now

[@SanaKhan-gt2yj]

U delivered?

[@denise2311]

yammu yammi I did!! It went great (as great as it can) and I’m fully recovered!

[@Vettejns7958]

the pressing on ur belly the nurses have to do after surgery is terrible 😫😫😖😖 hurt so bad, i screamed for her to STOP lol

[@desireeangelicmelodies8709]

Omg ouch for how long and how often ?!... Lol I feel like I’ll end up hitting them out of my reflexes I’m not ready ☹️

[@gionnitaylor4618]

I’m so scared

[@Vettejns7958]

DesireeAngelicMelodies well its not the best feeling and my nurse pressed 4 times every 15 mins cause i had to stay in recovery for an hour and then when i got my room in postpartum the next nurse pressed once a day

[@Vettejns7958]

Takerra Taylor yea I definitely was nervous cause I didn't know what to expect but the whole experience was weird and afterwards painful you just know that you've been messed with and surgery was taken place so the recovery takes a while definitely walk around after surgery and move around that gas because that gas build-up definitely what causes pain as well....make lota a farts happen and take it easy , TAKE UR PAIN MEDS

[@Jayisevolving]

6 days post c section with my babygirl 🥰

[@divinequeen100]

How’d it go

[@sogno_di_carta6430]

I actually had my incision glued. I thought that was pretty cool. I recovered pretty well at 4 weeks. I’ll be having a second c-section with a different doctor and potentially different hospital so I’m not sure how to feel about that yet. I’m afraid this time around won’t be as great. Fingers crossed! Great video.

[@clairengesah2181]

My baby did that same thing. Throwing up via the nose it scared the shit out of me.And yeah c section aftermath crazy.Totally relatable thanks for the video am a first time mom I have learnt alot. I have also had a c section.

[@khadscott7172]

No period while breastfeeding? 😮😮😮😮😮 I wish! I got my period like 3 months after birth.

[@theanxiouslegomom]

Thank you for explaining the c section process. I have had two vaginal births and this is my third but he is breech as of last week. We will check one more time this week otherwise my c section is set for 8 days from now 😬 and I had no idea what to expect
