Pain after C/S

After surviving the first week after my surgery I thought that the pain would slowly start to subside but I just can't shift this one pain I get on the left side of my scar. It's a muscle pain that happens when I bend a certain way, lie down, stand up, sit down, and sometimes when I walk. It's excruciating sometimes. Panadol helps but doesn't get rid of it altogether.

The pain is right under my scar. Have I overdone it? I probably shouldn't have been bending so much so soon, but it's hard not to when you have to get up all the time to a newborn baby and I know people say leave the housework for your partner, but there is still housework to be done during the day in order to keep baby in clean clothes, have bottles washed etc..

The muscle just keeps getting pulled and I don't think it's healing!

Did anyone else experience anything similar? My midwife said it was completely normal unless I have swelling around my scar, which I don't.

have your stitches come out yet?, also sometimes the surgeon may have just stitched too tight and its just the muscle getting use to it.

or ask your MW if you can up your pain meds?

I had a stitch that didn't disolve and had a lot of pain around it, I put heaps of cream on it and it finally came away...pain gone.
