Reply to "C- Section Moms- How long until you were up and moving?"

I had two vaginal deliveries with epidural prior to my jpouch and then a c-section post jpouch. It did not take me any longer to get up and moving post c-section than it had for my other deliveries (a few hours)- whatever they used took basically the same amount of time to wear off! I had no bathroom issues post c-section. The biggest issue for me post c-section was following the guidelines to take it easy because after all my j-pouch related surgeries the c-section pain was no big thing. You'll do great!! I have packed very light for all my deliveries. I bring my pillow I like and like a couple very comfy tanks and a couple pairs of pants, and a toothbrush. I don't bother with any of my toiletries or fancy nightgowns (if I don't feel up to my bum clothes I'm in a hospital gown). The less I bring in, the less I have to keep track of and take home.
