Product Description
Synopsis
More than 1 in 4 deliveries today are by caesarean section and post-operative mothers need to recover quickly in order to look after their new babies. Yet until now, there's been no book that offered a safe and effective exercise programme specifically for post-caesarean mothers. "Caesarean Recovery" contains specially designed exercises that ensure a woman can regain her pre-pregnant shape and physical abilities. The exercises progress through the stages of recovery and help women quickly overcome the pain and trauma of surgery and gain strength, vitality and energy. It presents a safe and effective programme for getting "back to normal" after a surgical delivery. All exercises are step-by-step and shown in easy-to-follow photographs. It is designed to keep pace with your recovery and available time. It demonstrates full-filled ways to get fit with your infant. It can help with easing postpartum problems.

Invaluable for those about to have, or have had, a CS,

This review is from: Caesarean Recovery (Paperback)
This book was bought just before my 3rd section and I wish I had bought it before. The book details appropriate exercises with a time-frame and gives advice on aftercare re the scar etc. Overall, it is an informative book and written in a way that is not patronising. My only criticism is that the information on eating healthily is rather sparse and as a mum who normally gains a stone in weight through breastfeeding I was looking for more meal plans and ideas for a balanced diet tailored to a breastfeeding mum. However, it's worth it's weight in gold for the exercise advice.

Excellent!,
By M (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Caesarean Recovery (Paperback)
Having had my first baby by emergency Caesarean and enduring a difficult recovery, I was very anxious about my second section. Thank goodness I bought this book. Instead of spending months hunched over too afraid to stand tall and get on with physical tasks, this book gave me the confidence to help myself recover. The day after the op I stood up straight, took a walk around the ward and have never looked back. If you are due to have a Caesarean, this book is worth every penny. Good luck with your births.

This review is from: Caesarean Recovery (Paperback)
I think the book has got quite useful information, but I was missing some info I didn't know yet.
Pictures are clear though and they try to show you step by step recovery tips.
