A member asked:
Are there any foods you can eat that will help the first bowel movement not be so painful after a c-section?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Foods rich in fiber: Foods rich in fiber with lots of water can help ease your bowel movements. Veggies, whole grains and lots of water will help your bowel movement and are also healthy for you as well. Also, may add prune juice, prunes, pears or apples to diet to increase the fiber.
