So I'll share a bit of my recovery experience with you.<br /><br />Pain, yeah, but you can tolerate that because you're taking pain medication out the wazoo. But it has side effects. So I can imagine that recovering from the c-section is like all the weirdness of "I'm tired of my body being so <i>functional</i>" combined with "I wish I could get my body to <i>function</i>."<br /><br />My advice is take it easy. Go into the whole thing expecting to rest a lot and sleep a lot and stay in bed a lot. I know, the kids. It's a trick to pull this off when you've got so many little people relying on you. But the one time I tried to get up and take walks and get back to life too soon, that was a big, big mistake.<br /><br />Good luck! I can't wait to see their cute smoodgy faces!Heather Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06066996569042347677noreply@blogger.com
