Infection After C-Sec

[kinberuri]

Dear all mummies,

I had my c-sec done on the 26th of Feb 2010. Unfortunately enough, i had an infection and was sent to the hospital on the 5th of March 2010. My infection seems to be a real bad one. Was wondering if anyone know what should i eat to improve the recovery. So far i am avoiding, chicken, nuts, eggs and seafood. Is there anything else i shd?

Would appreciate if mummies out there can advise. I really hope to recover real soon as its really a mental torture. :embarrassed:

I think more importantly, you need antibiotics from your doc. Has your doc given you any?

My c-section is also not properly closed (though no infection) and my doc gave me antibiotics and regular cleaning / dressing of the wound.

I can understand what you are going through cos I am going through the same thing too.

Mine was a c-section too. doc given me antibiotics, pain killer as well as vit C to aid healing & a pair of special sock. Must wear it for 2 weeks as it helps to improve our blood circulation and aid healing of wound.

Did you buy a tummy binding? i started binding since the 2nd day till now as it helps relief pain & prevent wound from tearing and most importantly shape up our tummy. :001_302:

As for food, i take chicken / pig liver & kidney and eggs. No seafood.

Kinberuri mummies, after your c-section did the hospital provide you the tummy binder?

I am also emergency c-section and Thomsom Medical Centre give me the tummy binder (of course charge in my bill) immediate after the operation.

I wear about 2 weeks at home. Which hospital are you deliver?

My wound is pretty well and is just like a fine line.

Mi oso went for c -sec at TMC, doc say dun hv to bind e tummy, as it does nt do any help on e wound.

tummy binding? you got it done where? massage lady?

i bought it from kiddy palace almost $30 but it not very good although i used it for almost a month. My massage lady use a long piece of cloth to wrap after massaging is even better. I can see better result after wrapping it for over 8-10 hours.

And must always keep the wound area dry after bath.

at first i also don't know how to use it. But i ask the nurse to teach me to put on the 2nd day before i get off the bed to walk. it really helps to reduce the pain. it is suppose to wrap firmly around our hip (starting from below the wound).
