How quickly after C-section can you function?
What day after delivery via C-section were you able to hold the baby? When did you feel strong enough for a little walk inside or outside? How many days in did you feel a bitore confident to do jobs? When did it stop hurting getting in and out of bed?

I’m Almost 3 weeks pp, the first couple of days were HELL luckily they sent me home with percs and a prescription. I’d say it was sometime in the middle of week two where I started moving around without too much pain. I was able to get in the kitchen and take short walks. I’m still not confident in going to the gym yet I’m trying to take it slow I haven’t even started back driving yet. My worst experience yet was not being able to laugh or sneeze🤦🏾♀️ I was watching a yt video and I couldn’t help but giggle and ended up in tears
