I went in thinking it was something I had to do due to my placenta accreta, then it was presented differently to me directly before surgery. I still decided to proceed because my OB said it wouldn’t be that bad and I should still be able to take care of my 13lbs baby no problem. This is the worst pain I’ve ever felt in my life and based solely off of what was told to me I feel I had no way to prepare for this amount of pain and difficulty recovering. Thankfully my partner is super supportive and we had a good village to help with the baby while I’m healing, but if that weren’t the case we would have been screwed. If you’re prepared for it and are fully aware of how painful and difficult it is, go for it. But I think I maybe would have chosen to keep bleeding every other week and cramping if I would have known it was gonna be this awful.im only two days post op and I have not been able to do one thing for myself. My husband has to take me to and from the bathroom. Get me up and help me walk around. Bathe me. I’m starting to feel a little more comfortable while moving but it’s been really rough
