I did csect too. they pushed your chest ribs area that part is definitely true. but apart being nervous, otherwise you shouldn't feel any pain at all. it is only after 1 or 2 days. keep everything all nearby you if you have slightly lesser help to prevent yourself from stretching. And bring a small squishy pillow or bolster that is enough to "hug" your bottom of tummy.. a trick I learnt is after csect when you come down from bed every single time, bring your bed to the lowest, one hand use the small pillow to hug your tummy. sort of like don't let your tummy fall against the gravity. then while doing so, slowly stand up. trust me. it reduces the pain.
