swelling of legs and feet after c-section?

Question

This is my second c-section. I'm pretty sure I went through this with my first but I don't remember how long it lasted...

Is it normal to have this swelling 6 days after c-section? It comes and goes but for the most part stays swollen.

Answer

meeee tooooo

Answer

Thank you, everyone!

Answer

I experienced that with my first- I think it was around 10 days after delivery that it finally let up.

Answer

Im also 6 days post ceaser and they said its normal. It was concerning at first as i had no swelling during pregnancy but it started 4 days post ceaser.

Answer

Yes! They pump you with fluids during and before they usually put this circulators on your legs to make sure blood is flowing right. They say to drink water to get rid of water and bring down the swelling. My feet were quite huge last time

Answer

Yes, it's pretty common. Should resolve 10-14 days after the c section.
