Course 03 of 15 · The First YearCesarean birth is major abdominal surgery, and its recovery is minimized in a culture that treats c-section as the easy way out.
Cesarean birth is major abdominal surgery, and its recovery is minimized in a culture that treats c-section as the easy way out. It is not. This course walks through what the incision is actually healing, what scar tissue can do over months and years, and the warning signs to watch for. If your c-section recovery has been brushed aside, if you have been told to be grateful and move on, this course takes it as seriously as it deserves.
