Okay, everyone always says how terrible it is, can someone please tell me why? I've read that people heal from 4 days to 8 weeks. What makes it so bad? Where exactly does it hurt? I've had minor surgery and loopy from pain meds for a week but I can't understand how recovery from a C-section could be terrible. Please any and all insights as detailed as possible! Would love to hear from mommies who have gone through it personally! I would love to hear all of your C-section recovery stories. And not just "stay on your meds", why? What happens or what does it feel like when you don't? Thank you in advance ladies!
