So I had my son 5 days ago via C-section and it's been ROUGH, much more rough than with my first.

But he has his first appointment tomorrow and I'm having doubts about if I'll physically be able to take him.

I'm exhausted, sore, and Its 30 minutes away. My husband can't get off work and I have no one that can take him and thinking about having to go in at 9 am tomorrow makes me want to cry because I'm so tired.

I know it's important but I'm considering rescheduling it because my body is telling me to slow down and I'm exhausted all the time and I feel like it will be too much stress for one day on top of the fact that I'm still healing from a surgery.

Do I have a right to reschedule it by a few days until I know for sure that I can 100% make the appointment? I'm only 5 days pp and EVERYTHING is super sore and I'm still struggling to get around

Edit:

I've decided to reschedule by a few days regardless of what anyone thinks. My body needs to heal and my children need a mother that is able to take care of them and I can't do that unless I take care of myself. Guilt may eat at me, but in the end pushing back an appointment will benefit my kids so I can heal and recover and take care of them rather than me pushing my body and not listening to my body. Thanks for the advice
