Is this normal 10 days after c-section

[gemmap27]

Sorry - Not sure if this is the right place to post this!

I had a c-section 10 days ago, and I have hardly been for a poo! (sorry TMI)

At first I was scared to go, and now I just cant! I have been taking lactulose, and nothing is moving! I am eating fruit veg and bran flakes too!

This is on top of the fact that I have now developed a water infection and I am on antibiotics! The pain of a trip to the loo is doing my head in!!

The midwife is coming tomorrow so I will ask her but thought I would ask on here too.

Sorry, I don't know this one - when I had a section I got back to normal quite quickly. Hope you get the answer 2moro (or go for a poo b4 that!)X

Yes in my experience very normal...my first one was like labour all over again..just keep on with that latulose and the fruit..i will come but may take some time to get completely back to normal

I had problems for weeks. Was in agony and bleeding as i had ended up being so bunged up.

Hope the midwife can help.

Yes, I had the same. It was agony. I think it took me about 2 weeks to have my first poo LOL.

Everytime I tried I thought my scar would split. But as everyone says keep up the lactalose and it will sort itself out soon.
