pain relief after C

if any, what pain relief where you on after your C? mine was emergency and they stuffed up pretty badly and then after they "accidently" overdosed me on 3 different pain relief too which they said was fine for BF baby.................well i beg to differ........my kid now feels no pain or mild and hits his head constintly against walls and concrete, which i have been told that it was to do with the drugs............now babe number 2 is on the way and i may have to have another C....... can i survive on panadol alone????????? as i do not wish for this to happen again

thats good to know...............i cant remember the first 2mnths of my babies life as i was high as anything and needed someone in the room with me to put Ty on me for a feed....................i wanted normal birth but further i go im getting more complications and now it looks like that will be a dream............so it looks like im stocking up on good old panadol.............and this time i attend to remeber every thing .........oh how long are you usually in hospital for after a C? im still thinking if all goes well im out in 3 days but dont know if this is correct..............and am i correct in saying that once you have a C you can not get transfered to birthing centre after?

I had panadol and brufen.....but mine was infected and bloody sore so needed a little boost.

Wow, I was on lots! paracetemol, voltaren, codiene, tramadol, the drip at the hospital (i think it was morphine but I'm not sure) and I was told they were all fine while I was breastfeeding. Gosh I hope that my girl will be ok! My midwife had me on codiene for 4 days before I had my caesarean as I wasn't coping with the labour and there was no OB to see me in town.

i just googled and looked in mums medical books regarding some of these drugs i took as she didnt want me on any...........and oh my gosh...............if we new that before there is no way in heck i would have taken them

Oh yeah....I had the drip in hospital with morphine, but only use it once in 24 hrs so they took it away.

Prebirth i had codiene, as i was planning a vaginal birth. But after c sec i had morphine, reacted to it, had something else, reacted to it. reacted to everything bar paracetamol. They suggested i kept taking i think it was the morphine as it was just making me itch, but then brennan started coming out in a rash so they took me off that. so that was it for me. definatly hurt but it was worth it. they prescribed me voltaren to take at home but didnt really need it, i was over the worst and had gotten used to living on paracetamol.

Check with the birthcentre you are wanting to transfer to. I'm pretty sure that Riverridge said they don't take a CS transfer, and I thought Waterford was the same.
