My second was sooooo much easier and less painful in the recovery. First took me forever to be moving normally again, after my second we were out and about at a play date for my eldest at 8 days PP. Felt almost back to normal by 6 weeks where as my first took until at least 10-12 weeks before I was moving comfortably.

Interesting!! My first sounded like your second. I was out on day 3, walked around to the pub for lunch. I hope my second isn’t worse 😂😂

This makes me feel positive about my second! My first was a breeze, I was walking my dog and out for meals again on day 4, I felt back to normal after 2 weeks, it was only sore if I accidentally whacked the section scar (getting the pram out of the car). I was nervous the second time it could hurt more if it’s gone through old scar tissue. Does anyone have experience of two close together? I’m hoping for a 2 .5 year age gap if lucky.

Exactly the same experience as you with my first @Clare Hoping for a similar age gap too. I believe they recommended to wait 18 months before getting pregnant after a c section to make sure it’s all healed properly xx
