I was doubled over on my couch a good 3-4 days after delivery - so much worse than labor, I agree @lemondrop: ! </p> <p>It's one of the things I'm most terrified about with future kids since they supposedly get worse after each delivery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-pain-meds-did-your-hospital-offer-you-after-labor#post-2385156 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 00:28:21 +0000 ChitownRo 2385156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only ibuprofen.
