Endo and c-sections

I have a question regarding existing endometriosis and having a c-section.

I had endo and an induced labor and baby was sliced out at 42 weeks on the nose. That was July 19th of last year. I had an epidural the night before after my water broke that was reupped when I was making little progress. 42 weeks was also day 4 of induction. Unfortunately after he came out, I started regaining feeling and panicked/got scared. They let my husband back in the OR after he was braceleted and he and I did breathing exercises and I got through it ( ... )

Yuck your labor sounds like it was pretty awful too! I'm only 5'2" and my torso is short. The baby was 21" when he was born so I think that's how he got lodged ( ... )

I am 5'3" with a short torso. My little man was a hair shy of 20". Figures he has my sense of direction, not his dad's ( ... )

Okay hopefully you will see this. I am currently on my second period postpartum. Baby just turned a year. My first was hell. I could barely move. The second one is a little better. It feels odd, a similar pain to when I had my c-section and was healing. I didn't want to post anything until I had more than one experience. This time the pain was more in my back. I am still breastfeeding and I don't know if it is that or what but my periods used to be 7-9 days and are now closer to 5-6.

I am sorry it's so painful. I can relate. I got my period back too, but it was only 3 mo PP (talk about a rip off!!). The first one was the single most painful period I've had in my life and it lasted 7 full days, heavy. I had my second one and it was also very painful but not as much bleeding and only lasted about 3 days. I am bf-ing too. I think it's normal, especially for us endo girls. I am back to having pain during the month and feeling like there's something clawing inside my abdomen, even though it's almost impossible there's endo in there again already (I had a lap right before I got pregnant). I had back pain too, it's like my entire torso is on fire and it's hard to move. I hope you're feeling better now, and that you're doing well between periods. I've had to go back to pain medication for my periods, something I wanted to avoid, but I need to be able to function for my son! The fun never ends with endo ( ... )
