For me, it was painful but not unbearable. I was up, moving around the 2nd day but it did hurt. I think the hardest part for me was getting in/out of the hospital bed and having to walk to the bathroom for the first time. I was still feeling contractions. It took me about two weeks to fully heal but I'll find out on Friday if I did any damage because I couldn't sit still and give myself time to heal. I had to clean and just move about, lol.

Best advice I can give you is to make sure you take the time to stand up completely straight before walking it will help in the long run :) sorry you had to have an emergency c section but congratulations on your new baby!
