I had an emergency csect with my firstborn, despite being 8cm dilated.
The first 12 hours, I still felt numb. But after that, the pain came.
It hurts especially when I laugh or cough. It hurts when trying to get up and walk.
But, I still breastfeed my son. He slept with me, I did not send him back to nursery.
I stand up to pick him up when it's time for feeding.

Soon, you will learn to be immune to it.
All the best!
