I actually wanted a c-section and then because he was breech I ended up having to have one. I was up walking laps around the maternity ward the next day and didn't even take any of the pain meds (other than ibuprofen) once I got home after two days in the hospital. I had a great nurse who got me up and moving and I really think that was the key to a quicker recovery.
I was sore for about a week where the incision was, but other than that I didn't think it was that bad.
