Agree. I was having a homebirth and had to transfer and have an emergency c section and it's was brutal! So hard and so hard to recover with no support from any family etc. Mummas need more support and understanding

🙋🏽♀️ I felt like my recovery was harder because I wasn’t mentally prepared to have a c-section. I felt like my incision was pretty tender for quite awhile, even after it had started healing and scarring. Because of where it is I had a hard time finding underwear and pants that were comfortable and didn’t hit right where it is. I definitely was not ready to go back to work after 8 weeks. I also had a weird tingling/lack of sensation around my scar. I did learn from someone on TikTok to get some silicone facial cupping cups and gently run those back and forth over the scar (with lotion), and that helped regain some normal sensations and feelings!
