do u have any difficulties breastfeeding Tammi becos of your c section wound? Did u buy the tummy binder before or after the op?
Did u go through GA since its considered emergency c section? Maybe u can share some experience since I will be going for my c section tomorrow.
thanks

SSL : this is for u!
1. C sect no impact on b/f. in fact I had my op at 1am, wheeled into ward at 2am, and b/f at 6am! i wanted to do it immed but they said i can't sit up yet tho' I could have as they injected morphine so not much pain
2. mine was epidural C section so no GA. So I was awake the whole time, op time only abt half hr or so, very quick. Epi injection abt 5 min, almost painless injection but everyone reacts to epi differently, some have post op headache n nausea or vomitting but for me none of that. for me, after epi was injected I shook alot, it went away aft 3 hrs..
3. Binder from Gynae can be purchased before or after op.. and it's not for op, it's for helping the tummy/uterus to shrink. VERY EFFECTIVE so pls buy one!! and u can use it almost immediately after op.
PS - my wound is almost painless now, and I didn't rely on synflex after day 2 so dont worry abt it.. Pray for a good anaethetist and gynae and you'll be ok!

thanks for sharing with me
did u deliver at TMC?
I hope i wont have any adverse reaction to epi too. Think u are very lucky. Yap, heard about the shaking part, heehee...
so fast to administer epi ah? i hope i wont jerk when they poke the needle into me. did they test to see if u are really numb before they operate on you? i read from another thread that someone's epi hasnt set in and she was in pain throughout the entire op. so scary..
I probably tell the midwife or nurse about the binder before i go in for my opt. I heard that its to bind around your tummy so that your wound wont hurt so much when u move about. Btw, did u still tie it now when u are at home? So they bind for u after the op?
I have complete trust in my gynae and she has complete trust in the anaethetist, so i guess its ok then

SSL - no, i delivered at Glen E.. when the Anesthetist admin the epi, he told me to lean forward n hold on to a nurses' arm so prevent u from jerking, the needle is v fine, it's even less painful than drawing blood!
Yes they tested me to make sure I couldn't feel the pain then operated.. Hw, I did feel very sleepy halfway n fell asleep!! haha.. I think it was when she was cleaning me up after removing placenta cos' I heard bb's voice and took a glance at my hb and then afterthat i fell asleep..
Re the binder, clinic asst brought to me on day 2 after op since gynae clinic was in Glen E too.
It's a big slab of binder and there's no rope to bind, it uses valcro.. yes the nurse helped me and when I went to dress my wound my gynae also helped me tighten it. can easily remove and i do it on my own now. It's not for the wound, it's for the tummy. My tummy size has shrunk so much partly due to binder, partly the breastfeeding. Everytime u b/f the uterus shrinks n u can feel the cramp. it's great!
I have no trust in anyone but God so I trust it to God to make it work! and He did...

INC - ALL THE BEST FOR TMORRW. Dont worry everything will happ v fast before u know it bb will be a few days old...
The nurses allowed the epi drip to follow me to ward but next morn when gynae came she said no need to drip already lah, i didn't even know what's in the drip.. so they removed the drip and catheter (for urine) abt 10 hrs after op.
any questions, just shoot!

not sure if my gynae has the binder cos she never mentioned to me. however, i did remember some gals who delivered at TMC told me can get from the hosp. will check with nurse. if dont have, can ask hubby to check at pharmacy
hmmm... if its not for relieving pain for the wound, i probably wont get it. see how it goes la.
btw, did they put plaster to cover your wound? any problems bathing at home since water will be in contact with the wound.

Yes, they will place ur legs onto e metal piece. Ur gynae will ask u to take a deep breath, hold breath & push while he count to 10. U r supposed to try to pull both ur legs towards urself to aid delivery.</font>

Binder is cheaper if purchased thro' gynae.. i got mine at 40 but they have diff make n models.
Natural birth also advisable to use binder, as I say not for C sect wound only but also as tummy trimmer! I highly recommend!
Jenifur, u didn't post pic of your princess Janelle? congrats to u too k? Mrs Tan fwded yr sms to me..

My package is for 4 bedded but then my gynae upgraded me to 2 bedded @ no additional charge. Check if ur gynae has this lobang. All my gyane's patients will auto upgrade to 2 bedded.
