1. Get Plenty of Rest. A C-section is major surgery. Just like with any other surgery, your body needs time to heal afterward. Expect to stay in the hospital for three to four days after your delivery (longer if there are complications), and give your body up to six weeks to fully heal. Thatâs easier said than done. Itâs hard to crawl into bed for hours on end when you have a baby who is demanding lots of attention.
There is a lot involved in this procedure. Not only does your incision have to heal, but even the nerves around your incision need to regenerate. This particular process can take as much as nine months! However, the healing process does begin much more quickly. It is likely that after your c-section you will stay in the hospital from 3 to 5 days, assuming there were no complications. During this time, you will have access to pain medication as needed, and your physician can keep an eye out for infection or other difficulties.
