How soon after normal vaginal delivery did you drive? I heard that you can't drive till after two weeks? Is this true

Huh? Why? I drove a few days later. Maybe you shouldn't if you're on codeine or very strong painkillers but can't see any other reason why not.

I drove 3 days later. If you're not on pain meds or had no other issues like excessive bleeding, there are no driving restrictions. No driving for 2 weeks for c section but not necessary for a normal vaginal delivery.
