A member asked:
Is it normal to feel pain in my csection wound when breastfeeding?..
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Positioning: To minimize discomfort while breastfeeding place a pillow over the incision while holding your baby. Breast-feeding positions that work well during C-section recovery include the football hold and the side-laying hold. If you continue to have trouble breast-feeding during C-section recovery contact your doctor or a lactation consultant for help.
