I had a CS 1 week ago - my first baby. I am 5’6” and was 120 lbs. prior to pregnancy and gained 32 lbs.

I’ve always had a flat stomach, not where I gain weight and I have been an avid exerciser for years and worked out up until the day before I had the baby.

7 days post-opp, my stomach has deflated a lot, and I don’t appear to have accumulated fat there. But I noticed a sort of pooch above my incision.

Is this normal? Is it swelling? Botched surgery? Will it go away? I’m really upset
