Another embarrassing c section question!

[Rachel11]

Hi ladies

I had a c section on the 13th feb, ever since have had alot of gas which I know is normal! But the last couple of days whenever I pass wind on the toilet or not sometimes I am leaking! On inspection it is clear liquid, sometimes with small bits of poo in!

Is this normal? Should I change my diet and see how it goes?

Advice appreciated ladies xx

I had a section on 28th jan, and I still have gas, and my number 2s are def still "loose" and also get discharge as you discribe. No idea why, will ask at 6 week check if still the same

I read it's the stong antibiotics killing good bacteria and drinking yakault for a while (or other probiotic drink) helps

Oh bricey thank you I've been really worried about it- hopefully then I will start to have a loose poo soon!

It's so embarrassing as when I let wind out it comes out!!!!!!

I think ur body has just gone through a massive ordeal and needs time to heal. I nearly wet and pooped myself a few days after giving birth. I didn't have a c sec tho. Just so ur pelvic floor and rest. Those muscles will soon be repaired xx

I have heard antibiotics can cause this
