ur stitches before u complete six months. Though the external stitches could have healed, the internal
stitches will take around six months to heal completely. Try to wear maternity belt as much as
possible and when u travel. This will help to keep the stitches intact.
Pain may be there for the first couple of weeks then the intensity will reduce and u can experience
some prickling sensation until three months. Then u should feel normal mostly. To prevent back aches
feed the baby in a comfortable position. Using a feeding pillow should help.
