    2 c-sections - 1999 and 2003. The sleeve was a walk in the park. I went into the hospital Tuesday morning at 6 am and left Wednesday at 1 pm. I could bend over and tie my shoes, I could walk without using an IV pole to stand up straight. I didn't use any pain meds other than tylenol when I got home and 1 or 2 doses of an anti-nasuea med (I have trouble with nausea from anesthesia.) I was back at work on Monday morning (I'm a desk jockey who is in the office 2x a week.)

    Most people say c-sections are way worse! Two more days and I'll find out! Yayayaya!

    I think after being through a traumatic emergency C-section and a lot of pain to recovery my Sleeve will be much easier! Not even scared of the pain at all. Pregnancy and Emergency C section trained me very well!!!

    I had a pretty easy recovery from a c-section, but even with that, the vsg was a cake walk. I have had no pain whatsoever, though I am constantly battling nausea and can't keep up with my liquids and Proteins at four days post op. I also can sleep on my side, have no issues with walking, and have not had any gas pains. I'm already fully caring for my 1 year old easily, she even sleeps on me and there is no discomfort. Really the two cannot compare.

    Yay! This is encouraging! I also had my boobs done a few years ago. That was super easy! I'm just worried I'm too confident about recovery and it's going to kick my butt! Lol

    Can anyone speak to the comparisons between the 2?? Trying to gauge how painful this will be. I've experienced 2 c-sections, one being emergency (awful recovery!!!!) any input welcome!!

    I'm scheduled for Jan 12 and have wondered the same thing. My c-section was awful! I'm hoping this is much easier! I will let you know!
