My doctor prescribed Eglonyl- common misspelt eglinol (anti-depressant and it assists in milk supply) as soon as I had delivered. We had discussed this prior to the birth. I feel, as a result I did not suffer the third day blues and I feel it helped me to cope. I stopped them about two months after birth when I thought I didn’t need them any longer. It was great not having to experience the severe downs before the doctor prescribed something for me to take.- I was a little weary of the wound and was afraid of bumping it or doing damage so I put a maternity pad across the wound under the rather styling mesh panties.
- Even though you may feel fine, the anti-inflamatories are really important to take. Rather discontinue taking the painkillers is what my obgyn suggested.
- Ask your doctor a lot of questions about the precedure. It makes you feel secure.
- Make sure you feel that your legs are properly on the operating table. My one leg fell off with which was rather uncomfortable because with no feeling, I couldn’t lift it myself and it felt like a while before anyone got to it.
- The anaethetist sits next to or near you the entire time. Ask him to take a picture of you and hubby with your new bundle as it arrives.
