First days home...What to expect after your miracle has arrived Care for Mom after delivery: You will have pain… Child birth is traumatic for your body. It is normal t feel a certain amount of pain. Especially if you have a caesarian section. A C-section is major abdominal surgery. Not just having a baby. Your recovery will take more time and different care. The most obvious thing you will notice is the pushing on your stomach. Nurses do what is called a fundus check. They push on your stomach to feel your uterus. This is to make sure it is clamping down and controlling your bleeding. You will bleed after delivery, this is to make sure you don’t hemorrhage (bleed too much). It is painful and most mothers don’t want the nurses to do this but it is one of the most important things they do for your safety. Another important point is to urinate after delivery. Keeping your bladder empty will help a lot with controlling you’re bleeding and pain. If the bladder is not emptied often it can put pressure on the uterus and all the tender tissues in your abdomen. This will cause an increase in pain. A full bladder can keep your uterus from clamping down, this can cause you to bleed excessively.
