Noone ever said anything about driving to me, I think I drove a couple of days later.

I was bad and didn't listen to the doctor, but about a week later I was driving.

I think it was a week or so. Nobody said I couldn't but I told DH I couldn't so he'd run all the errandsChat Icon

Re: When did you first drive after your delivery?

I waited at least a couple of weeks.
I had a c-section and my doctor told me not to drive - cause if I had to slam on the brakes or any sudden movement, I could re-open my incision.

Also she said god-forbid I got into an accident - the bottom of the steering wheel would hit the incision.

So I listened Chat Icon

A few days after I delivered. My midwife said not to drive for 2 weeks, but I felt fine.

I drove myself to my 1 week pp checkup (I had a c-section). My Dr never mentioned to me that I shouldn't drive. I was fine.

Re: When did you first drive after your delivery?

Thanks! Noone actually said I couldnt drive, I just figured being so sleep deprived and weak, it probably wasnt the smartest thing... but I'm feeling pretty good, so I know that any day I'll be wanting to get out a bit, even if its just to CVS and home...
