Product Description
The complete guide to a healthy recovery from the effects of C-section birthing. Almost 1 out of 4 deliveries is by cesarean section. Whether or not the procedure is planned, cesarean section must be considered major abdominal surgery and surgical recovery is a necessary process towards complete healing. Cesarean Recovery guides new mothers through the healing process in conjunction with her medical care. The new mother will discover when and how to start her recovery -- from her first attempts at sitting up in the hospital bed, through to standing and on to mastering her first exercises. This special guide includes straightforward and detailed information on: - Safe and effective exercises for regaining pre-pregnancy shape
- Regaining vitality and strength with daily and weekly exercise routines
- Fun-to-do and effective routines that include mother and baby
- Diet, breastfeeding and postpartum problems
- Incision care and advice for repeat cesarean sections
Written in an accessible style and illustrated with color photography throughout, Cesarean Recovery shows mothers, step-by-step, how to recover from the surgery as they care for their newborn.

 Too General December 2, 2007

It is a good resource but it is too general. I was looking for something a little more specific that I could use during recovery for more specific questions and with more concrete examples and detailed descriptions of what to expect.

This book should be handed out in hospitals for women who have had a c-section. For a woman with no knowledge on what to expect before, during, and after a c-section, this book contains all the information that I needed to know. The book is very easy to read, every page is in glossy color with many pictures on what to expect and how to do the recovery exercises. The section on breastfeeding is very helpful as well. The book is divided into sections for each part of recovery, from 1-3 days, 4-7, weeks 2-12, 12-24, etc. I started reading this from my library on week 11 and started from the beginning exercises (from day 1) and feel GREAT after doing them. I was unsure what exercises I could do besides keigals and walking, this answered everything for me.
I highly recommend!
