Swimming after c/s

[*butterflykisses*]

how long after a c/s can you start swimming again???

Same as any injury or wound, I'd say. As soon as the skin has healed and you feel strong enough/ready to go. Start gently and listen to your body, and if you have any questions, ask you GP.

i was told 6 weeks. otherwise there is a risk of infection.
