Oral Syringes and Eye Droppers. Oral syringes or eye droppers can be used to directly administer medications orally, or can be used for accurate measuring and mixing. Oral syringes come in a variety of sizes, and some include special stoppers to make them easier to use.
Sore breasts. Several days after the C-section, your breasts might become firm, swollen and tender (engorgement). To ease discomfort, nurse, use a breast pump, apply warm washcloths or take a warm shower to express milk. Between feedings, place cold washcloths or ice packs on your breasts.
See what the first days of c-section recovery are like for one mom. It takes time for your body â especially your belly â to fully recover from pregnancy. Imagine your abdomen as a balloon, slowly inflating as your baby grows. Childbirth doesn't pop the balloon; it just starts a slow leak. But don't worry â it's a steady one. From the moment your baby is born, hormonal changes cause your uterus to contract, shrinking it back to its pre-pregnancy state.
