C-Sect Recovery

I’m a ftm. LO is 5 weeks. I had emergency c-sect during delivery. My incision wound recovered within the week and I could generally move about within 2 weeks. I thought I’m recovering well, so I started to carry my LO more etc. But in the last 2 weeks, LO has grown quite heavy and kicking quite strongly. So sometimes I get kicked in my abdomen area and I’ll feel pain. There’s no swelling etc, but the muscle inside seems to hurt so when I walk sometimes it’s like having a cramp. Other mummies who went through C-sect, is this normal? Should I stop carrying my LO for the time being? Any tips on how to recover fast? TIA!
