bellepink77 44 Posted June 13, 2012 Had my surgery Monday still in hospital. This is the worst pain I have ever had. I've given birth 4 times my son was 10lbs10oz and that was nothing compared to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted June 13, 2012 I'm sorry to hear this. I found this much easier then 3- c sections. Everyone is different when it comes to pain and surgery. Feel better soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aleyampat 22 Posted June 13, 2012 Violet, I am also 6 days out!! Yay!! I'm glad your pain is good. Mine however is bad. It's just one area where my JP drain is located. It is much better than in was 6 days ago but I still need pain meds to function normally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Violet2577 2 Posted June 13, 2012 my surgeon told me the drain causes pain..i get mine out today....maybe once yours is out it will be better? i hope:-( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aleyampat 22 Posted June 13, 2012 Violet, I should have said was. They pulled mine before I left the hospital on Sat. I'm very happy to hear your pain level is good. I'm looking forward to that day:) As long as I have pain meds I'm good. Lol! Other than that area the rest of my body is pain free. Maybe I was extra sensitive to the drain:( People keep suggesting gas pain. I get gas pains occasionally, too. The 2 pains are definitely different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TJL 1 Posted June 13, 2012 I went in surgery last friday, saturday at noon I left the hospital in Belgium, booked myself into a hotel for one night, drove 1100km up to Danmark sunday morning. My pain is almost gone, only 5 days after. So its very different for each person, but I do not regret anything but its gets better really fast, so just hang un there for a couple of days. 1 DLCoggin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwiladydee 402 Posted June 13, 2012 I never had a baby - but did have a 3rd degree burn. The actual burn pain was worst but it was in a localize area, this surgery make your entire inside hurts and puts you out for days and week. I didn't realize how your stomach controls your turning, coughing, sneezing, breathing, laughing etc. I'm on day 8 or 9 and the pain amount has gone down, but when it comes it's horrible!!
