I was a bit upset after I had LO because I'd held her for an hour and didn't think of heartburn that whole time but as soon as they took her away to get cleaned up I realized I still had it. However, I had a meal and a shower then went to my non-delivery room and by the time I went there I didn't have heartburn anymore. So maybe an hour and a half to two hours before the heartburn left.

It took a day or so for swelling and heartburn to go away. I had raging heartburn during labor. I had to ask for meds since I couldn't concentrate to push.
The carpal tunnel took several months to go away, but there is still a little bit of lingering tendonitis in my wrists.

I didn't notice the heartburn at all after the birth but my feet were super swollen for a couple days from the IV fluids I had. I'm 8wks pp now and my feet have been killing me the past few weeks - really stiff and achy. Not sure if it's related to the pregnancy or not but hoping it goes away soon. Oh, and I still can't wear my wedding ring. I'm really afraid Ill have to get it resized.

I ended up getting Pitocin so I had swelling for about 15 hours after she was born, but the heartburn, groin pain etc was almost immediately gone. Sweet bliss!
