After birth?

[Niqueniq]

I'm nervous on what to expect after birth. Will my stomach feel empty? What will my stomach look and feel like? Will my private area be sore? Will I still have pains? Will my boobs hurt while the milk is drying up? I'm just so nervous and curious we stay pregnant almost a year and the its like what do we do afterwards you know?...

For the breast feeding, I dried up in two weeks. It will hurt for about two days if your not going to breast feed, & they will leak a lot.

I had c section with my first. My stomach never got big with him so after they took him out I felt the same. I breastfed so my stomach actually was flat as a surf board in two weeks. I only bled for one week. And my incision healed really quick. I was walking around normal the next day. I'm way bigger with this pregnancy, so maybe I should answer this question after i have this baby. Lol

Your stomach will feel empty. It goes from being crowded to empty. Honestly, you are not going to like how your stomach looks or feels. Before pregnancy you tummy was probably firm. I was thick before pregnancy but my belly was firm. That will no longer be your belly. With excerise after your dr oks it, you can get it firm again but it takes a while as for the breast drying up, im not sure. I breast fed. To me, the most painful part when it came to my breast was when they were filling up. My breast looked like watermelons. It hurt for anything to touch them. When my breast did dry up after breastfeeding it did not hurt at all. Trust me though, it is all worth it. Anytime I was upset about my belly I just squeezed my daughter tight. Your stuff will be sore, especially if you have tearing. My soreness went away after about two weeks though.

Lol. My first pregnancy, after I felt. .. empty.  My stomach sagged, it was like a deflated balloon. I breastfed, so idk about milk drying up. I had an epidural,  so I couldn't walk on my own until the next day. That anesthesia makes u feel handicap afterwards lol but, it wasn't bad at all. My doctor prescribed me 800 motrin for any pain, but there wasn't much except for the cramping of your uterus going back into its place when I breastfed.
