Do you remember going to take a spitz bath and you thought it would hurt like the blazes, and you're surprised at how good it felt? Then they had that heat lampy thing that they put under the covers to "dry" your stitches?
Women in America took longer to heal than the women in England during WW2 and the bombings. They said getting up and moving help their recovery faster, than the American women who were told to rest for six weeks.
omgggg the sitz bath or whatever its called they gave me after i had my daughter, i was so scared but it helped so much. they also give you this little water bottle that you are supposed to fill up and squirt on yourself when you pee, lol. it worked though and the stitches just dissolve on their own now. w/my son I definitely found that after 4 days in the hospital (yuck) the best thing was getting up and moving around. i basically felt no pain after the first week from the incision, but when it first happened after the dura-morph started wearing off it was the worst pain i have ever had.
