Good luck at the walking. You might want to wait a week to do that too. You dont really have control over your bladder or bms after having a baby. I couldnt handle going anywhere for at least two weeks. I tried going for walks and would barely make it down the driveway before I had to race back and use the RR. Hubby took the kids out for walks a lot without me because I couldnt keep up.

I had a c-section and was driving 2 weeks later, I recovered very fast, it's all about how you recover!

My experience has been after my vagional delivery no driving for 1 week. With my c-section no driving for 4 weeks.

You don't have to stop driving in the uk witch I love but I think it's best to be safe so if your distracted bye baby kicking all I mean is lission to your body only you no how you feel from one day to the next be safe xxx :-)

Ive said only in emergency will i consent to a c section lol when i set up my new insurance i said i was pregnant and they didnt say anything about not being able to drive at any point. My friend said she was advised to stop driving if the seat belt got too tight but u can buy them belt extender things and im not that big really (im 34w + 2d). I was hoping to drive home purely so my mother in law cant cause arguments if i ask my mum n dad take me lol if i cant drive them im so getting a taxi lol x

Lol puppy pads thats a good idea!!!

[shortie_93]

hopefully i dont get a c-section im scared and same thing with me hopefully my dad lets me drive home :/

[emmaftm]

I was thinking of buying some puppy training pads to put on my seat incase my waters break while driving lol

[emmaftm]

If u have a c section they tell u not to drive for so long because of the stitches getting pulled. Other than that u can drive straight after i think! I was hoping my dad would bring  my car to the hospital for me so i could drive myself home as my bf doesnt drive!!

[shortie_93]

Really omg thanks is just that im scared my water will break or something while im driving... So after i have my baby i can drive right or do i need to wait a week???

I never stopped driving with my first. I don't really see a reason not to.. Though I wouldn't drive long distances alone after 37 weeks.. And as far as about after delivery well, I'd say anything you feel better.. There's not really a time limit to wait or anything..
