How long does it take to recover from a C-section?
As with most things, it really depends. Your abdominal incision will be sore for the first few days, and you can expect to be in the hospital for two to four days.
Some women recover quickly from a C-section, while others take more time. “It depends on if you had any complications or medical problems but, generally after six to eight weeks, a woman will feel better,” says Christine Greves Opens.
Infection or incision issues might push that timeline back a bit, says women’s health expert Jennifer Wider Opens a new window, M.D.
“On paper, recovery takes at least six weeks, although most people feel close to normal after only a few weeks,” adds Matthew Carroll. In truth, though, 100 percent recovery can take up to three months, and after a pregnancy and any delivery, your body is going to be different than it was before.”
