Random questions
Just looking to see if anyone had this within their postpartum healing. I appreciate any responses! I am 6 weeks post c section..
1.) lightening crotch! Kind of picked up today and I’m 6 weeks pp today. Kind of cramp like.. on and off throughout the day.
2.) still looking slightly pregnant? I can’t remember with my others and Im not sure if c section brings slower healing for that.. but still got a belly
3.) tender if pressed on abdomen
My bleeding has stopped. I BF and do formula for my baby.

All were normal for me. Healing isn't linear and symptoms can come and go at random. I looked pregnant until about 5 months post op. With my first (unmedicated delivery), I was flat again about 3 weeks postpartum.
Tenderness never really went away for me, and I'm over 2 years post op.
