Sorry, not much. Take your pain meds and try to get as much rest as you can. [ Reply | More ]

Nah, no one tells you how rough it is to recover from childbirth. I couldn't walk standing straight up for 2 weeks. [ Reply | More ]

this is true and i feel like you cant tell anyone your hurting. Everyone asks how you are and you can't respond—well my vaginas broken and in pain, i can't sit up straight, and my stitches are unfomfortable—it's always i'm doing great! clearly worth it for db but i'm hurting [ Reply | More ]

I totally agree! DD was born about 2 weeks ago and no one seems to understand why I have been so out of it and not wanting anyone to come over. Hmmm...maybe b/c I can't sit or stand or walk and breastfeeding makes me really tired? GL, and take care of yourself, you'll feel better soon. [ Reply | More ]

I think new moms are encouraged to get "out and about" waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too early. Whatever happened to a couple of weeks of "lying in" with your new baby and new family? Why the rush to take the baby everywhere and introduce him/her around? Why don't people know that a new mother needs to be mothered herself? Our society is seriously amiss in this area.
