You can eat after passing gas (farting) after cesarean section surgery.
Cesarean section surgery requires anesthesia, after which the intestines are stimulated, resulting in suppression of bowel function. After the operation, you need to lie down for 6 hours and eat only after you have passed gas. If you eat too early, the peristaltic function of the gastrointestinal tract has not been restored, which will cause gastroesophageal reflux, vomiting, and in serious cases, intestinal obstruction, which will jeopardize the life of the mother.
You can drink water first, eat fluids or semi-fluids, and eat normally after there are no uncomfortable symptoms. The amount of meal is also increased gradually. Pay attention to dietary hygiene, eat more fresh vegetables, easy to digest food. If you experience any discomfort, talk to your doctor.
