I can’t take care of my baby.

I know it’s so hard but you got this momma. If you need extra help call for your nurse. They are obligated to help you. It won’t be like this forever. Take your time healing and soak in all those new born cuddles.

you got this it’ll get better it was super hard for me also but it’s something you have to do the pain is temporary and you’re a strong momma

You can do this my love . Take your time. You are a warrior . I’m so sorry you don’t have the proper support you need mama but believe in yourself alittle more. You can always hmu if you need to talk my insta is @univers.oull - im praying for you queen

I’m 7 days post c section. I feel your pain. When they made me get up to walk at 6 hours after surgery, I almost felt like I was going to pass out. I was dripping sweat and dizzy from the pain. My suggestion is to take the pain medication always on time. Also take any additional pain management if possible. They were giving me Tylenol and Advil every 6 hours. And then I asked for hydro morphine every 4 hours when I knew I was going to be doing something taxing like showering. Remember that it is okay if baby cries. It does not mean that you have failed your baby. Take your time when trying to get up and out of bed. But also try to get up often as possible as this will help you heal faster. Everyday gets easier, I promise!

You can do it! Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. I really struggled at the start aswell but it will get easier. Often the hospitals are so quick to get you up and out after a c section and it’s major surgery! Like the above comments, take your pain relief on time and ask for additional pain relief if you feel like you need it. Take it one day at a time and it will get easier. It’s amazing what our bodies can do

I know i felt a lot better when i was at home in my own environment. Being able to sit in a chair instead of the bed made a huge difference. I also highly recommend sleeping on the couch and having a bassinet for baby. Take all the pain medicine they give you. In a year you won’t remember the pain, but you will remember the time with your baby.

I didn't have a C-section, but day 3 was BY FAR the worst in terms of my recovery. It has been all uphill from there! I'm so sorry!

It will get better. Day 2 and 3 were the worst! Even after we got home I struggled. Ask for all the help you need! I’m 10 days pp and am finally feeling pretty good, not back to normal and still have pain, but pretty good. My husband couldn’t stay at the hospital and I couldn’t get out of bed holding my baby to put her back in her bassinet. I called on my nurses all night and they took her to the nursery. I can’t believe your nurses told you no 😳 You’ve got this! And congrats

I didn’t have c section but still felt miserable for 3 days I am 12 days pp and now feel better

In California legally they can’t kick us out for 4 days. Mine is scheduled for next week- I’m doing a lot to prep food/ nutrition wise, and have methods of recovery for after.. I just purchased a high- quality red light panel for recovery… stay on top of the Tylenol/ Advil as it’s there to help pain/ inflammation from starting

I had a c section after getting an epidural and trying to push for as long as they would let me before I had to have a c section and the combo of all those meds and pushing all night long into morning after my c section I was so disoriented and just wanted to sleep I was happy my baby was born but I felt so much guilty. As a FTM I even caught myself wondering “can I do this? Am I cut out for this? This is so much work. Was this a mistake” and it’s okay!! Needing to rest and being in pain is a valid reason to find it hard and it won’t be like this forever!!! Wishing you the best on your journey and just know ur circumstances will get better!!
