I find this kind of funny in this C-section pain... I say my weight problem is still baby weight...*LOL* I have a 19 year old and a 16 year old, and never had a weight problem till I went through pregnancy. Both of my daughters were c-sections, the 2nd one being 100% easier than the first one. So as I go into having the sleeve (hopefully in February) I am constantly telling my teens that this is my 3rd c-section... removing the big brat called my stomach thats been incubating and telling me the wrong thing hunger thoughts for all these years.

My c-section was 22 years ago so my memory may be a little skewed and I'm sure that c-sect techniques have improved during the years too. I would say for me both recoveries were rough for the first 24 hours. But was I up and walking sooner with the sleeve. Seems like I had a much longer recovery with the c-sect too. I would say the sleeve was easier for me.
