Congrats kiri & birkmmm! It's so exciting to see all of the new babies! My H came home sick today. I'm trying so hard to be sympathetic, but it's hard when he stole all of the pillows and left me alone to deal with the toddler at bedtime. I really really hope he's not contagious. Also we're supposed to go to a refresher birth class/hospital tour tomorrow and I hope he feels better so he can come.

Today’s my due date and I have a 5 day old baby already! How did that happen?! Hadn’t had a chance to check in yet because of the sick toddler at home I’ve pretty much quarantined myself upstairs away from her to keep baby from even thinking about catching anything! Of all the weeks for her to get a fever! I feel so bad as she keeps asking to hold the baby! Only bonus is it gives me the chance for extra baby snuggles and avoidance of the ILs that are also at the house from out of state. Birth story - Sunday night I had a couple contractions but nothing regular. My husband was constantly eyeing me as our first came super fast (45 minutes from 4cm to baby out) so he was paranoid we’d have a car baby. Went to bed and woke up about 2am to contractions every 4-5 minutes. I let him sleep for awhile and when they continued like that I woke him up about 3. He jumped out of bed and got dressed before I could even roll over! Haha called my parents and asked them to come watch DD. Made it to triage about 4am and was 3cm (only a fingertip Friday so definitely something going on). I explained my history and they decided to admit me without waiting and get my epi ordered since there wasn’t time last time. Epi was placed by 6am (love that man!) and things actually got boring! Haha finally made it to 6cm around 2pm after some pitocin so they broke my water. She kept asking me about pressure but I literally felt nothing. They decided they didn’t trust me and checked anyway... surprise! Baby’s head was right there! 5 minutes later we were team green turned BLUE! NICU team was on call because there had been meconium in my water but all checked good. He latched right away and we got to go home Tuesday! Big sister is in love as are we!

So I’m 16 days Post c/s and around day 9 or so I was feeling great! Virtually no pain or soreness and then at day 12 or so I’m having some abdominal pain. At first it felt like soreness (muscle sore) and now it is also crampy. But it usually doesn’t bother me until mid way through the day. My bleeding is still there but isn’t red anymore, mostly brown and dark red. This pain/soreness stopping and coming back again didn’t happen with my first.
Anyone ever have this with prior c/s?

itsmemeg, I could have written this (except only 11 days). I think it’s because we’re feeling a little better & “pushing” ourselves a little more.

Yeah I was thinking that too but i honestly don’t feel like I’m doing too much. I’m not lifting any thing besides baby+car seat. I go up and down my stairs a few times a day but I’ve been doing that since we got home from hospital. It’s very strange to me. The cramping almost feels like gas pains so maybe it’s trapped gas and things are still sore internally? I don’t know. I’m going to call my OB on Monday if it’s still going on though.

itsmemeg, my stairs are the biggest issue I’ve had. If I only go up/down 2-3 times a day, I’m fine. Any more than that that I notice I’m more sore. I’ve also noticed I’m standing a little more the last two or so days, plus walking the grocery store & Target this week. Gas pains are a good description, though. I’m also not #2ing regularly yet, so I’m wondering if slight constipation is adding to my discomfort.

We had J's Birthday party today. His favorite present is a ride on motorcycle with three wheels. He finally has something similar to his older brother's balance bike that he wanted so desperately to play with, but isn't strong enough, yet. Unfortunately, big brother really liked the motorcycle too and there were tears.
My favorite gift was the zoo membership my parents gave us. We also seem to have found a used double BOB stroller for half price! Going to pick it up this afternoon. A zoo trip with the new stroller seems to be in order for next week (if it's not too hot..).

I wouldn’t say bright red but still. No clots.
