Excellent Book, Aug 28 2006
By LivingForJ - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cesarean Recovery (Paperback)
This book should be handed out in hospitals for women who have had a c-section. For a woman with no knowledge on what to expect before, during, and after a c-section, this book contains all the information that I needed to know. The book is very easy to read, every page is in glossy color with many pictures on what to expect and how to do the recovery exercises. The section on breastfeeding is very helpful as well. The book is divided into sections for each part of recovery, from 1-3 days, 4-7, weeks 2-12, 12-24, etc. I started reading this from my library on week 11 and started from the beginning exercises (from day 1) and feel GREAT after doing them. I was unsure what exercises I could do besides keigals and walking, this answered everything for me.I highly recommend!

Not the best organization, Mar 19 2012

This review is from: Cesarean Recovery (Paperback)
I bought this book before my second c-section and am glad I didn't have for my first one. I am old enough now to realize that what doctors and books tell you isn't law. There are things in this book, organized by distance from surgery date, that are totally off my healing timing. There are things at 12 weeks out that I could do within 2 weeks, and things at 4 weeks out that I couldn't do at 12 weeks. Do not give this book to someone who takes it as a doctrine (or someone young and ignorant). That said, I still found parts of it informative and helpful, not a complete waste of money, even though I will sell or give the book away.

Too General, Dec 2 2007
By Jen Wren - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Cesarean Recovery (Paperback)
It is a good resource but it is too general. I was looking for something a little more specific that I could use during recovery for more specific questions and with more concrete examples and detailed descriptions of what to expect.
